the company where I work is evaluating different CI/CD systems, we tried GoCD (v17.4), Jenkins 2 (v2.7) and Concourse (v3.2.1).
We liked Concourse, but a big downside was the fact that the test reports were not displayed in a usable way. I asked in the slack chat, I was told Concourse shows the output of the console, respecting the ANSI colors, if any...
...but the thing is, XML test reports contain a lot more information than just a red color for failing tests and we need to use that information.
I created a failing test and Jenkins has a nice plugin to group all tests, show extra info/metrics and group the failing tests to spot them at once. It also keeps the history of test results.
In Concourse, without a tests reporter one has to scroll down a log to see all failing tests... my colleagues are concerned about this.
Is there a way in Concourse to parse a junit XML test report and show it in the UI in a usable/interactive (clickable) way, as jenkins does?
As I learnt is that Concourse has no plugins and simplicity by design, it seems that the answer is: "NO, there isn't: you can just see the console logs as is". but if I'm wrong, please let me know... Thanks
