Consolidate multiple ExtentReports test case reports into a single HTML report

[aleon1220]

I am new with this framework. Please correct me if i am not reaching the right channel.

Using ExtentReports-Java for custom test reporting in a project. current project structure includes:

• Java package named after the Jira ID
• Package(s) containing TestRail IDs for each test case
• Java classes named after the TestRail test case IDs

The test-output folder currently contains:

• icons folder
• img folder
• Individual TestReport.html file. 1 file per test case.

is ideal that we want to consolidate each test case report into a single HTML report using the ExtentReports framework.

Questions and Possible Solutions

1. Is it possible to merge multiple ExtentReports into a single report?
   Possible ideas/solutions to Be Confirmed by the community

   • Use ExtentReports' mergeAll() method to combine reports
   • Implement a custom report merger using ExtentReports' APIs
   • Create a parent report and add child reports for each test case

2. How can we maintain the structure and hierarchy of our test cases in a consolidated report?
   Possible ideas/solutions to Be Confirmed by the community

   • Use ExtentReports' test node hierarchy to represent the Jira ID, TestRail ID, and test case structure
   • Implement custom categorization using ExtentReports' tagging system
   • Create a custom report template that preserves the desired structure

3. What's the best way to handle test artifacts (screenshots, logs) in a consolidated report?
   Possible ideas/solutions to Be Confirmed by the community

   • Use ExtentReports' attachment features to include artifacts in the consolidated report
   • Implement a custom artifact management system that links to the consolidated report
   • Create a separate artifacts page with links from the main consolidated report

4. How can we ensure that the consolidated report is performant and easily navigable?
   Possible ideas/solutions to Be Confirmed by the community

   • Implement pagination or lazy loading for large numbers of test cases
   • Use ExtentReports' filtering and search capabilities
   • Create a custom navigation system using JavaScript and ExtentReports' APIs

I would highly appreciate any guidance or alternatives to achieve this consolidation using the ExtentReports framework.

Thank you for your help community!
ps. I am super keen to contribute to the project.
