Add json output to kubectl testkube run test

[marcportabellaclotet-mt]

Describe the enhancement you'd like to see We would like to parse extraction id after running kubectl testkube run test xxx. Current run test displays a plaintext output, which can be parsed, but is not as safe as json parsing. Would it be possible to add json output for run test?

Hey, @marcportabellaclotet-mt We support output format for certain commands and object type. For example, kubectl testkube get execution --output=json, but not for Run command. But we can add it for run command as well

Thanks, that will be very appreciated!!

You're welcome @marcportabellaclotet-mt Definitely, it will be a nice improvement for automation of test based workflows, we will add it to our task list

I think we should plan to rewrite UI package - rethink it in terms of errors and output formats. For now we can just put some ifs but on the very end it should be pluggable in some kind

Hi @marcportabellaclotet-mt maybe something like this for now will be enough?

tk run test kubeshop-cypress | grep "Execution ID:" | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f 4

Hi @exu , Yes, we are already parsing the execution Id using bash tools. However, this usually breaks pipelines when output format changes, and we prefer to relay on json format. Thanks for comments @exu!! Great tool!!

Would it make sense that for the testkube run command we have these fields are json output ?

fields for json output:

• status: passed/failed
• logs: ""
• executionid: ""
• etc....

@jmorante-ks @dejanzele @vsukhin @rangoo94 could you define a good json output spec for our CLI command ?
