This document provides instructions for generating an HTML report using the ExtentReports library with Appium/Selenium test automation. It includes prerequisites of basic Appium and Java skills. It outlines the project structure needed, including adding the required ExtentReports and Appium JAR files to an Eclipse project. It provides details on creating configuration files, test classes with TestNG annotations, and using the ExtentReports API to log test passes, failures, and errors to the report.

A sample Project Structure:

7. • Create a Java Project under eclipse IDE
• Add all Appium dependency .jar files and earlier mentioned Extent Report jars files to project.
http://www.oxfordmathcenter.com/drupal7/node/44
• Create a config.xml file under project folder and copy default xml content of extent report skeleton.
Code Ref: htmlReporter.loadXMLConfig("./config.xml"); [xml script file attached in next slide]
• Create an extentreport.html file under project folder/directory.
Code Ref: private static String filePath = "./extentreport.html"; [keep it blank in project]
• Create a ExtentManager.java defualt class under project package where Base class created.
• Declare below the classes and import respective packages:
Packages:
import com.aventstack.extentreports.ExtentReports;
import com.aventstack.extentreports.ExtentTest;
import com.aventstack.extentreports.reporter.ExtentHtmlReporter;
Classes:
private static ExtentReports extent;
private static ExtentTest test;
private static ExtentHtmlReporter htmlReporter; //contd/-

8. config.xml default xml script. Copy and Paste into config.xml file.

9. ExtentManager.java

10. • Create a Base class to add Appium capabilities or @BeforeSuite/Class method to launch app, to create a sample
base class refer: http://toolsqa.com/mobile-automation/appium/first-appium-test-to-launch-amazon-app/
@BeforeSuite or @BeforeClass method for Base class

11. • Create a @Test TestNG annotation method or test case in same class or any other scenario class.

12. • Create a testng.xml file under project folder & Add xml content.

13. • Declare below the class variables in Base class of Project.
public static ExtentReports extent;
public static ExtentTest test;
• Initialize extent class variable within the @BeforeSuite/Class Method.
extent = ExtentManager.GetExtent();

14. • Extend Base class if you have written separate scenario class to write test case with @Test annotation.
• Initialize test ExtentTest class variable into test case method.
test = extent.createTest("TestCase1", "Testcase Description");

15. • Add below the code to pass, fail or to get the logs from the perticular test case method.
test.pass(objname +"Any Test Message"); // To Pass condition
test.log(Status.FAIL, register_button_displayed +" doesn't contain "+"SignIn button" ); // For Fail
test.log(Status.ERROR, e.getMessage()); //Error message or log

16. The End!! 
