Do you folks have any means of having Azure build and release show this in a cleaner manner?

Thanks

@davelaceyuk Could you add the --disable-unicode option to the newman run ... command and see if that takes care of all the issues in this report?

which is great,though i was thinking, could we add it to an UI?

While there is no direct UI support, you can generate HTML reports with the --reporters html,cli option. The generated report can be uploaded to a host of your choice for further viewing.

5

do you steps at all on how to do that so it can be viewed within the build data in Azure?

@davelaceyuk I’m not too sure about how Azure build environments handle generated files, but I found this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/vsts/build-release/tasks/test/publish-test-results?view=vsts. Using the built-in JUnit reporter in Newman, you can specify a custom path to your report with the --reporter-junit-export /pat/to/report.xml option, and specify the same path in the publish settings of your Azure build environment.
