Now that everything is configured it is time to execute our automated test cases. Let's go back to the main screen in Jenkins. Click on your job and trigger your job execution by clicking on Build Now .
Once your job execution is completed, refresh your current screen either by pressing F5 or by clicking over the build name. The following screen must appear, showing a graph with the test results.
You can find more information on your tests by clicking on Test Results or on your build under Build History.
Everything seems to be right in Jenkins, let's go back to TestLink and click on Test execution option in the top menu. It will bring a screen showing the result of your test execution.
You can see more information about the execution of your tests by clicking over it on the left tree. Notice that by default the plug-in uploads the test result file. In this case, as we are using TestNG, it uploaded testng-results.xml. It is useful as you can see what happened in your tests, e.g.: an exception stack trace.
Explore the reports available in TestLink to see the results of your tests by different perspectives.
