Postman Collection Automation using Newman

This repository demonstrates how to run the Postman collection using Newman within the GitHub Actions job and generate the htmlextra test results report

🚀 Description:

• Newman is a command-line collection runner for Postman
• Newman allows you to effortlessly run and test a Postman collection directly from the command-line
• Newman is built with extensibility in mind so that you can easily integrate it with your continuous integration servers and build systems

🚀 Steps:

• Download and Install Postman
• Create a new Collection and save your requests in a collection for reuse and sharing
• Create a new Environment and save values you frequently use in an environment
• Export the newly created Collection along with the Environment from Postman to your local directory
• Add the postman_collection and postman_environment to the newly created GitHub repo
• Create a GitHub Actions workflow ( i.e., .github/workflows/github-actions-htmlextra-report.yml ) to run postman collection using Newman and generate test report via html extra reporter
• Upon every push and pull_request, the workflow would be triggered with Artifacts produced during runtime ( i.e., test-run-reports ) that contain the html report ( i.e., test_report.html )
• Also, the Newman Tests workflow could be triggered via the workflow_dispatch event trigger.
• Or, the simplest way is to Fork the repository https://github.com/ashikkumar23/postman-reports, make a small change and push the changes to see workflow getting triggered with the generation of html report ( i.e., test_report.html )
