Unit Tests Results Summary

We have an execution plan whose job it is to execute a number of unit tests across a range of test projects.

On completion of the tests, we're currently posting out a notification which contains a link to the test-results page as follows:

set $TestResultsUrl = http://ourbuildserver/executions/test-results?executionId=$ExecutionId

set $testsCompletedNotifcationMessage = $ApplicationName - $ReleaseName finished executing\n<$TestResultsUrl|Results>;

Is there a system variable or function for getting the actually results summary (as presented on the test-results page) within the execution context so we can include it in the notification message body too?

Product: BuildMaster
Version: 5.6.8

There is nothing built-in to do this, but you could do this with a custom variable function.

Thanks Alex,

As recommended, I've created a variable function extension for this, which has worked perfectly:

  [ScriptAlias("TestResultsSummary")]
  [Description("Returns a test results summary string for the execution in the current scope.")]
  [Category("Unit Testing")]
  public class TestResultsSummaryVariableFunction : ScalarVariableFunction
  {
    [DisplayName("executionId")]
    [Description("The ID of the execution whose test results summary will be returned. If empty, the execution ID "
           + "in the current context will be used.")]
    [VariableFunctionParameter(0, Optional = true)]
    public int? ExecutionId { get; set; }

    protected override object EvaluateScalar(IGenericBuildMasterContext context)
    {
      int? executionId = this.ExecutionId ?? context.ExecutionId;

      if (executionId == null || executionId <= 0)
        return "INVALID EXECUTION ID";

      var testResults = DB.BuildTestResults_GetTestResults(executionId);

      var runCount = testResults.Count;
      var passCount = 0;
      var failCount = 0;
      var inconclusiveCount = 0;

      foreach (var result in testResults)
      {
        if (result.TestStatus_Code == Domains.TestStatusCodes.Passed)
          passCount++;

        if (result.TestStatus_Code == Domains.TestStatusCodes.Failed)
          failCount++;

        if (result.TestStatus_Code == Domains.TestStatusCodes.Inconclusive)
          inconclusiveCount++;
      }

      return string.Format("{0} run, {1} passed, {2} failed, {3} inconclusive", runCount, passCount, failCount, inconclusiveCount);
    }
  }
