After unit tests fail, run a step / add a process to teardown

[Lucas van Staden]

As the title states.

Using phpunit, with selinium, headless chrome.

During unit tests, if any test fails, a screenshot is made of the issue. These are stores in a folder, which I want to upload to S3 bucket (as per existing guides), which would allow to see browser view at the point of test fail.

The issue I have is that teardown runs, after phpunit fails, which skips any further script actions.

I also tried to set the copy part as a second step, which also does not run.

So, is there a way to run steps/script actions prior/during teardown?

Solved.

My mistake was to run the unittest command directly in the pipeline yml

I created a bash script, which runs the unittests, capture the result.
If the result is a fail, I create a 'flag file' (tried to set an environment variable, but that did not work)

The bash script always exits with 0 (no error)

If the 'flag file' exists (in later steps) I can do needed actions

./vendor/phpunit/phpunit/phpunit --fail-on-warning --log-junit ./test-reports/junit.xml -c tests/phpunit.xml.dist --testsuite Admin
set RESULT=$?
if [ $RESULT -ne 0 ]; then
 echo $RESULT >>./testdata/testfailed.txt
fi
exit 0

The last step in yml:

- if [ ! -f ${BITBUCKET_CLONE_DIR}/Magium/testdata/testfailed.txt ]; then /bin/true; else /bin/false; fi
