Configuring rspec |
A guide for generating Trunk-compatible test reports for RSpec |
|
You can automatically detect and manage flaky tests in your projects running RSpec by integrating with Trunk. This document explains how to configure RSpec to output JUnit XML reports that can be uploaded to Trunk for analysis.
{% include "../../../.gitbook/includes/checklist.md" %}
Trunk detects flaky tests by analyzing test reports automatically uploaded from your CI jobs. You can do this for your Rspec tests by generating JUnit XML reports from your test runs.
To generate Trunk-compatible reports, install the rspec_junit_formatter
:
gem install rspec_junit_formatter
You can use rspec_junit_formatter
like this:
rspec --format RspecJunitFormatter --out junit.xml
The JUnit report will be written to the location specified by the --out
argument. In the example above, the report would be at ./junit.xml
. You will need this when you update your CI config to integrate with Trunk.
You need to disable automatic retries if you previously enabled them. Retries compromise the accurate detection of flaky tests.
If you have a step in CI to rerun failed tests with the --only-failures
option, or you're using a package like rspec-retry, remember to disable them.

Before modifying your CI jobs to automatically upload test results to Trunk, try uploading a single test run manually.
You make an upload to Trunk using the following command:
curl -fsSLO --retry 3 https://trunk.io/releases/trunk && chmod +x trunk
./trunk flakytests upload --junit-paths "./junit.xml" \
--org-url-slug <TRUNK_ORG_SLUG> \
--token <TRUNK_ORG_TOKEN>
