is it possible to send JUnit test report by email?

with ant it is possible to run JUnit tests and generate test reports in several formats: text, HTML, XML .. and it is recurrent to send test results by email to the responsible, so my questio开发者_开发百科n: is it possible to use the xml file generated by Junit in order to send a summary(Html) of the test execution? or is there another better solution to send the results test execution by email? any help will be appreciated :) thanks for your helps.

You could also convert the XML file into an HTML using XSL styles within junitreport task. http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/junitreport.html

And then use the inbuilt mail task to mail this HTML file

<mail mailhost="smtp.myisp.com" mailport="1025" subject="Test build">
  <from address="config@myisp.com"/>
  <replyto address="me@myisp.com"/>
  <to address="all@xyz.com"/>

Use the cruise control to build your project and run unit test. http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net/, its a very good tool.

Team City supports it out of the box, and I found it easier to configure than Cruise Control.

Hudson is a very good build-server with support for email notifications of build and test results.
