Unified Test Reports (Browser + API)

Unified test reports combine browser navigation analytics and API test results in a single JSON file. When a test uses both page and request fixtures, TestRelic captures navigation timelines and test outcomes together.

What does a report contain?

• Navigation timeline — every URL visited, navigation type, duration, and network statistics
• Test results — pass/fail/flaky/skipped status for every test, regardless of whether it used page, request, or both
• Failure diagnostics — error messages and source snippets for any failing test
• CI metadata — auto-detected CI provider details

Report schema

Same top-level structure as Browser Reports. Each timeline entry captures a page navigation (if the test used page) plus the associated test results:

{
  "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page",
  "navigationType": "goto",
  "duration": 890,
  "specFile": "tests/unified/wikipedia-api.spec.ts",
  "networkStats": { "totalRequests": 40, "totalBytes": 1289736 },
  "tests": [{ "title": "search Wikipedia and validate API data", "status": "passed", "duration": 3456, "failure": null }]
}

A failure in a unified test attributes to whichever part of the test raised it — check the failure snippet's file and line to tell API failures from browser assertion failures apart:

{
  "failure": {
    "message": "expect(received).toHaveText(expected)\n\nExpected: \"Leanne Graham\"\nReceived: \"\"",
    "snippet": { "file": "tests/unified/user-validation.spec.ts", "line": 18 }
  }
}

Analyzing reports

Read my TestRelic unified report at test-results/analytics-timeline.json and:
1. Print the test summary (total, passed, failed, flaky, skipped)
2. List all page navigations with the tests that ran on each page
3. Find any failed tests across both browser and API tests
Write a Node.js script using fs.readFileSync.

CI integration

- name: Check for failures
  run: |
    FAILED=$(jq '.summary.failed' test-results/analytics-timeline.json)
    if [ "$FAILED" -gt 0 ]; then
      echo "Unified tests failed: $FAILED"
      exit 1
    fi
