5. Email Support

Email Notification

User can get notification about test results via email by writing a yaml file containing mail details. Starting from v1.1 support for conditional mail is also added. This enables user to receive mails based on the outcome of the whole test suite.

Sample mail file, send_mail.yml:

to: [email protected] 
from: [email protected]
sub: "Sample Jsnap Results, please verify"
recipient_name: Foo
passwd: 123
server(optional): smtp.gmail.com 
                  optional (by default gmail server is configured in jsnap, 
                  if u want to send from some other email account apart 
                  from gmail, then please specify that server)
port(optional) : specify port, by default it is SMTP port 587
sender_name: "Juniper Networks"

Then include this file in main config file.

Sample config.yaml

# for one device, can be given like this:
hosts:
  - device: 10.2.1.1
    username : abc
    passwd: pqr
tests:
  - test_is_equal.yml 
  - test_is_in.yml
mail: send_mail.yml

####v1.1 Addition : Conditional mail For utilizing the conditional mail facility following syntax needs to be used:

mail:
       pass: <filename>
       fail: <filename>
       all: <filename>

• pass: Send the mail only when all the test cases pass
• fail: Send the mail only when one of the test cases fail
• all: Send the mail regardless of the test case result

Sample Email:
