Introduction

Convenient to rotate CICD flow with Github Actions! But when rspec is broken, it is difficult to find the error part. I hope you can see it on Github Checks.

Break

I tried uploading with reviewdog, but there was no supported error format. https://github.com/reviewdog/reviewdog#available-pre-defined-errorformat

When I was looking at the source thinking that I could make a PR to support it, a proposal called Reviewdog Diagnostic Format was proposed. https://github.com/reviewdog/reviewdog/tree/master/proto/rdf

Rather than writing a parser, it seems better to process the output of rspec according to this format. But it doesn't seem to be the official version yet. SARIF looks good. So instead of RDFormat, I decided to create a formatter for rspec according to the existing input format. https://github.com/reviewdog/reviewdog#input-format

errorformat
checkstyle XML format

Try a prototype and use checkstyle, which makes it easy to check the operation.

I miss XML.

Sudden

https://github.com/astronoka/rspec-checkstyle_formatter I made a formatter and made it a gem.

During implementation, the XML builder / parser has an error due to the ascii color code \ e [0; 34m" that is output with an error such as mysql. By the way, I feel more and more nostalgic when I get an error because of this.

      run: |
        cat /tmp/rspec_result.xml | reviewdog -name=rspec -f=checkstyle -reporter=github-check -filter-mode=nofilter

like this.

reviewdog Great: sparkles:

While wondering how to pass it in the format for linter Done.

Make failed rspec tests visible on github check annotations
