   • In the Build section, click “Add build step”.
   • Select “Execute Windows batch command” or “Execute shell” based on your operating system.
   • Enter the command to run your SoliteraTA tests. For example:
   • “C:/Program Files/SoliteraTA/SoliteraTA.exe” cli -executionLocation=”C:\\Users\\HP\\Documents\\soliteraTaProjectsUpdated\\SoliteraTA_Playground\\executionData” -elementFilePath=C:\\Users\\HP\\Documents\\soliteraTaProjectsUpdated\\SoliteraTA_Playground\\Default_Release\\element\\Element.env -applicationFilePath=C:\\Users\\HP\\Documents\\soliteraTaProjectsUpdated\\SoliteraTA_Playground\\Default_Release\\application\\Environment.env -testdataFilePath=C:\\Users\\HP\\Documents\\soliteraTaProjectsUpdated\\SoliteraTA_Playground\\Default_Release\\test_data\\Test_Data.env -scriptFolderPath=C:\\Users\\HP\\Documents\\soliteraTaProjectsUpdated\\SoliteraTA_Playground\\scripts\\Alert_Events -executionName=abc
   • Refer to complete documentation of CLI over here: https://soliterata.com/docs/command-line-interface/soliterata-command-line-interface-cli/
3. Install Cucumber Reports Plugin

   • In the ” JSON Reports Path”, specify the JSON report file path generated by STA CLI (This will be the same as the path you pass in CLI as an execution folder. For example:
   • C:\Users\HP\Documents\soliteraTaProjectsUpdated\SoliteraTA_Playground\executionData\abc\report\Configure additional settings like trends and advanced options as needed.
   • Configure your other conditions as when the test report is to be passed with other settings.
4. Add Post-build Action for Cucumber Reports
   • Go back to the job configuration page.
   • Scroll down to “Post-build Actions”.
   • Click “Add post-build action” and select “Cucumber report”.
   • In the ” JSON Reports Path”, specify the JSON report file path generated by STA CLI (This will be the same as the path you pass in CLI as an execution folder. For example:

   • Configure your other conditions as when the test report is to be passed with other settings.
5. Save Configuration and Run Job
   • Click “Apply” and “Save” to preserve your job configuration.
   • Run your job to see the test execution and report generation.

Viewing Reports: #

2. You should see a “Cucumber Reports” link in the menu. Click on it to view detailed test results.

Troubleshooting: #
