Open source to generate TestNG reports

in contrary to the question: Generating HTML TestNG reports

we already have testNG for integration (java), and we generate HTML reports and logs in our code, I now seek for alternative option to generate nicer HTML logs & reports. I found only allure and extent(which support HTML logs only on pro version), is there any recommended options? positive point given for:

  1. built it HTML logger
  2. open-source Jenkins integration
  3. nice UI
  4. easy to implement on existing java code

  5. standalone library (not require another server)

    EDIT In addition, at least for our CI , we consider using ELK for the reporting (maybe also for logging, but it more complicated..) seems it should be easy, by just generate JSON output in the reporter/logger is anyone did it? is it reasonable design?

For Java you won't find anything better.

Allure Framework

  1. Will require some coding to make your log looks nice.
  2. Allure Plugin.
  3. Default UI good enough, could be changed with plugins.
  4. We implemented it in 5-years old project with 20000 tests, took several days.
  5. Standalone report, but it's developers has server version with several cool features.

Extent Reports

  1. As you said - it is has it in PRO feature. But I suppose, that attaching whole logs to you reports it is not what you are really want.
  2. As usual html report, no pipeline support.
  3. UI good enough. Supports customisation with both JavaScript and CSS.
  4. I have chosen Allure 1,5 years ago after spending several days trying to use ExtentReports for our huge test suite.
  5. Standalone report available, as I know.
  6. Klov report server can be used if you need to track historical data, view dashboard and analyse runs over a period of time.

Report Portal

  1. Can convert your logs in pretty looking test steps, will require some coding and refactoring.
  2. ReportPortal Plugin
  3. Their team has UI Designer. This is all what need to know about their UI.
  4. Same as for Allure, as for me.
  5. It is a Portal. You will need small cluster to use it, see docker-sompose.
