Analysis
The Analysis section in ReportPortal offers detailed documentation on the powerful features available to help you conduct faster and more efficient test automation results analysis. Learn how to effectively investigate failures, monitor trends, and improve the overall quality, reliability, and performance of your test automation processes using ReportPortal.
ReportPortal provides multiple methods for analyzing test results, including automatic, manual, and immediate analysis options. For instance, features like Pattern Analysis, Unique Error Analysis, and Auto-Analysis are designed to run automatically by default, offering real-time insights into test failures without manual intervention. However, these features can also be triggered manually in case automatic analysis is turned off.
The automated analysis capabilities in ReportPortal are particularly useful for reducing the time spent on defect triage. By automatically categorizing and analyzing test results, our test results reporting service helps you quickly identify recurring issues and potential areas for improvement. This not only saves time but also enhances the accuracy of defect detection.
With Immediate Auto-Analysis and Immediate Pattern Analysis, you can start analyzing failed tests right away, without having to wait for the launch to be completed.
By leveraging these advanced analysis features, ReportPortal helps you optimize your test processes, enhance defect management, and maintain higher standards of software quality.
📄️ Auto-Analysis of launches
Use Auto-Analysis to categorize failures with ML, reduce manual work, and link defects automatically. Speed investigations and improve accuracy with test failure analytics.
📄️ Immediate Auto-Analysis
Kick off Auto-Analysis before a launch finishes to flag failures sooner. Use attributes to accelerate test failure analytics and shorten feedback loops.
📄️ Search for the similar "To investigate" items
Find similar “To investigate” items by logs across launches to bulk apply decisions. Accelerate defect triage and simplify your test reporting tool workflow.
📄️ ML Suggestions
Get AI-powered suggestions for similar failures during triage. Reuse defect types, comments, and BTS links to speed analysis in your test automation dashboard.
📄️ How models are retrained
Learn when Auto-Analysis and ML models retrain, how data is used, and what thresholds apply to keep ReportPortal test failure analysis accurate and project-specific.
📄️ Manual Analysis
Use the Make decision modal to assign defect types, apply ML suggestions, and bulk update items. Streamline bug triage for a faster automation test report.
📄️ Pattern Analysis
Define string or regex rules to detect known error patterns. Speed up investigations and track frequent causes with the Most Popular Pattern widget.
📄️ Immediate Pattern Analysis
Start Pattern Analysis before a launch ends to catch issues early. Trigger via attributes and speed defect triage on large runs in ReportPortal.
📄️ Unique Error Analysis
Group identical errors to speed triage. See unique failures, match tests by error, and apply ML suggestions for faster, clearer test failure analysis.
