Performance trend in Jenkins

Alain Paradis

Is there a way to get QBENCHMARK performance trend in Jenkins? There is a few Jenkins plugins for that purpose but their input formats are not available under QTest unit test applications output choices.
Thanks

Hi and welcome to devnet,

What format are they using ?

Alain Paradis

Thank you SGaist

Each Jenkins performance plugin uses different formats. For example, the following plugin https://plugins.jenkins.io/perfpublisher uses this format : DTD report

Unfortunetly, the XUnit format (option -xunitxml) of the QTest applications don't output any benchmark data while Jenkins plugins could use it.

The options : -csv -xml -lightxml outputs benchmark data but I didn't found any Jenkins plugin for those formats.

Is there a converter somewhere ?

I use Jenkins but I only use unit tests rather than benchmarks so I can't be certain but I feed -xml output to plugins that expect XUnit and works fine

Alain Paradis

Yes that's right. Jenkins unit test plugins can process -xml output. It works fine. But Jenkins performance plugins dont recognize this format.

If there is not way to get benchmark trend running in Jenkins, maybe I could develop a converter. Something like this :

$ ./myQtTests -x lightxml | ./myConverter > supportedJenkinsPluginFormat.xml

... unfortunately, it's very time consuming :(

If someone else know a better solution...

Hello. We have exactly the same problem and so far we haven't found a solution. Would it be too much trouble to send us that xml conversion project?

Thank you very much.
