Dashboard.htm file is complete blank.

[vikhyat07]

QAF Version 2.1.15

Steps To Reproduce

1. Execute the test case in eclipse oxygen
2. Once the execution is completed open the dashboard.htm file by right click and select the chrome browser within eclipse ide.

Expected behavior

The dashboard.htm should display full report.

Actual behavior

Dashboard.htm is opened but the the are no report points, completely blank only trends, overview and trend chart is displayed with out any data. The same project is working perfectly fine in intellij ide and the said report will also open without any issues.

One observation, the difference between the two ide is, report launched from intellij ide will open using http://localserver:63342 where as in eclipse is opening from the project folder and not able to render the data points from test results folder.

I have checked the test results folder on both ide and there is no difference in json file data generation.

Is the issue reproducible on runner?

• [ ] QAS
• [yes ] Maven
• [ ] Gradle
• [ ] Ant
• [yes ] Eclipse

Test case sample

Please, share the test case (as small as possible) which shows the issue

If you open dashboard.html using http-server(like Intellij inbuilt do that) then it doesn't require any configuration But if you open report using file system then following configuration required in browser.

Microsoft Edge

Edge browser does not require any configuration to open dashboard.

Firefox

1. Go to about:config
2. Set security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy:false

Chrome

Start Chrome with below command and open dashboard.htm file.

chrome.exe --allow-file-access-from-files

Safari

1. Go to Develop menu.
2. Select Disable Local File Restictions option.

Sorry this didn't work. I followed below Steps. In command prompt navigated to chrome folder and ran the command which you have stated for Chrome and the browser was launched and then from project folder, I have draged and dropped the dashboard.htm file to chrome but there's no change, again same result as stated in screen shot earlier.

Edge also produced worst result then chrome like complete grid is vanished and no data.

This is very frustrating issue for eclipse when intellij is able to open this without any setting then why eclipse had to struggle?

Please let me know is there any settings required for eclipse to launch the report from the ide.

@vikhyat07

Give a try to Firefox Browser. Refer this stackoverflow issue.

Above configuration should work. Still you are looking for some alternate way.... Use Web Server for Chrome extension and open dashboard.

[vikhyat07]

Thanks for the info. This is very secured network and the client will not allow to install any extension for Chrome.

Please let me know any solution for eclipse.

[amitbhoraniya]

As I told Give a try to firefox, if you are still looking solution for chrome start chrome with below command. Make sure all existing process of chrome is killed.

chrome.exe --allow-file-access-from-files

Yes I got the command for Chrome and tested with other command it works.but try to understand the inconvenience here. When you run the test and are able to launch the report from intellij ide and eclipse struggles here. For Every run if you have to kill the process of chrome and run the command to check the report then this is a big issue.This is very secured environment and no one wants to play with disabling the security of browsers. Hence asking help to suggest other solution for eclipse

[amitbhoraniya]

Eclipse open dashboard.htm as a file protocol, while IntelliJ internally start web server for you. So it works without any configuration in IntelliJ. If you want to view dashboard using file protocol, then above configuration is must.

Is there any reason to reopen this issue ??
