TestNG+Ant+eclipse XSLT Report Generation

XSL stands for Extensible Style sheet Language, and is a style sheet 

Language for XML documents. XSLT stands for XSL Transformations.

 In this tutorial you will learn how to use XSLT to transform XML 

Documents into other formats, like XHTML. XSLT which gives good graphical generated reports.

Steps for generating reports:

1. Download ANT http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi

2. Configure environment variable for ant 

      User variable
         variable name: ANT_HOME
         variable value: C:\Program Files\Java\apache-ant-1.9.1

     System variable
         variable name:  Path
         variable value: C:\Program Files\Java\apache-ant-1.9.1\bin
           Check ANT version
            cmd > ant -version

1. Go to project directory 
2.Go to src folder
3. Create a folder name as "xslt"
4. Download https://github.com/prashanth-sams/testng-xslt-1.1.2
5.Unzip it
6.Go to fallowing directory "testng-xslt-1.1.1\testng-xslt-1.1.1\src\main\resources"

7. Copy the "testng-results.xsl" and keep in "xslt" 

8. Now copy the saxon.jar file from fallowing path "testng-xslt-1.1.1\testng-xslt-1.1.1\lib".

9. place it your project folder.

9. Create build.xml file http://seleniumtwo.blogspot.in/2013/07/buildxml-configuration.html

10. Modify your build.xml of ant and add the following target to it.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>

<!DOCTYPE project [

]>

<project name="TestNG" default="usage" basedir=".">

                  </xslt>

              </target>

    <!-- ****************** targets not used ****************** -->

</project>

NOTE: 1. instead of "F:\1" give your own jar files path

                 2. Instead of "testng.xml" replace your xml 

6. Create testng.xml file in your project with the following script for TestNG execution

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>                       

<suite name="Ant Suite">                                               

       <test name="SP Kandua">                                      

        <classes>                                                               

          <class name="sample.Xlstreport" ></class>         

        </classes>                                                              

       </test>                                                                    

 </suite>                                                                         

7. Now run from the command prompt

 > Goto your project directory

    

   ant makexsltreports

   We will get results like below image
