WebdriverIO

npm install @tracera/webdriverio

Tested on Node.js 22.19–26.12 and WebdriverIO 9–10.0 (see Autotest adapters). @tracera/webdriverio on npm.

In wdio.conf.ts (Mocha):

export const config = {
  reporters: ['spec', ['@tracera/webdriverio/reporter', {}]],
  services: [['@tracera/webdriverio/service', {}]],
  mochaOpts: {
    require: ['@tracera/webdriverio/setup'],
  },
};

For Cucumber, register the same reporter and service. Prefer tags on the Scenario @tracera.id:‹id› (optional @tracera.name:…), or call tracera.testCase from a Before hook or step.

Environment variables, run mode, and retries: Autotest adapters.

Retry Env key: WEBDRIVERIO_RETRY.

Bind testCaseId and autotestName

Load @tracera/webdriverio/setup via mochaOpts.require and import tracera and annotations. Mocha annotation names are literal (no {param}).

Mocha — at declaration (preferred):

import { annotations } from '@tracera/webdriverio';

it(
  'login',
  annotations(42, 'e2e/login', async () => {
    await browser.url('https://example.com');
  }),
);

Mocha — inside the test (optional if annotations already bind the case):

import { tracera } from '@tracera/webdriverio';

it('login', async () => {
  tracera.testCase(42, 'e2e/login');
  await browser.url('https://example.com');
});

Cucumber — Scenario tags (preferred):

@tracera.id:42
@tracera.name:e2e%2Flogin
Scenario: login
  Given I open the login page

To bind without Scenario tags, call tracera.testCase from a Before hook or step.

Skip

Use stock Mocha skip (this.skip()). Optional: set a result comment with tracera.comment before calling skip.

import { annotations, tracera } from '@tracera/webdriverio';

it(
  'login',
  annotations(42, 'e2e/login', async function () {
    if (!process.env.READY) {
      tracera.comment('env not ready');
      this.skip();
    }
    await browser.url('https://example.com/login');
  }),
);

Steps

Use tracera.step: the call tracera.step(title, fn), @tracera.step("…") on a class method, or tracera.step("…")(fn). In a decorator title, {name} / {0} are filled from the method arguments; you can also pass a function that returns the title. In the call form, {name} / {0} are not filled in — pass a finished title string (or build it yourself). Async methods and Promises are awaited. With @tracera/webdriverio/setup, stock Mocha beforeEach / afterEach are instrumented — steps inside them go to the result’s Setup / Teardown. Suite-level hooks such as before / after are not reported.

import { tracera } from '@tracera/webdriverio';

beforeEach(async () => {
  await tracera.step('open shop', async () => {
    await browser.url('/shop');
  });
});

it('checkout', async () => {
  tracera.testCase(10, 'e2e/checkout');
  await tracera.step('add to cart', async () => {
    await $('[data-testid=add]').click();
  });
});

afterEach(async () => {
  await tracera.step('cleanup', async () => {
    await browser.url('/cart/clear');
  });
});

Decorator on a method:

import { tracera } from '@tracera/webdriverio';

class Cart {
  @tracera.step('add {item}')
  async addToCart(item: string) {
    // …
  }
}

Comments, errors, and attachments

Comments, errors, and attachments: Autotest adapters.

import { tracera } from '@tracera/webdriverio';

it('login', async () => {
  tracera.testCase(42, 'e2e/login');
  tracera.comment('result-level note');
  tracera.error('result-level error text');

  await tracera.step('open login', async () => {
    await browser.url('/login');
    tracera.comment('landed on login');
    tracera.attachment({
      fileName: 'suite-log.txt',
      mimeType: 'text/plain',
      data: new TextEncoder().encode('finished login flow'),
    });
  });
});

Parameterized tests

import { annotations } from '@tracera/webdriverio';

const rows = [
  { id: 42, name: 'e2e/login-ok', path: '/login' },
  { id: 43, name: 'e2e/login-sso', path: '/login/sso' },
];

for (const row of rows) {
  it(
    row.name,
    annotations(row.id, row.name, async () => {
      await browser.url(`https://example.com${row.path}`);
    }),
  );
}

Or call tracera.testCase(row.id, row.name) inside the test instead of annotations.
