Postman API suite with multiple iterations (e.g., 20), only 5 reports are generated.

[manojkumarthakur]

When executing a Postman API suite with multiple iterations (e.g., 20), only 5 reports are generated. The issue arises because the report names are not uniquely generated, resulting in existing reports being overridden.
This problem was previously addressed by @felipecassiors, who introduced the @felipecrs/newman-reporter-alluremodule, as discussed in the following Postman Community thread.
https://community.postman.com/t/is-it-possible-to-have-1-html-report-on-all-collections-run-in-newman/5833/11
The solution was subsequently merged into the parent Allure Framework, with the repository available here https://github.com/allure-framework.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/@felipecrs/newman-reporter-allure?activeTab=readme
https://github.com/ervirendersingh/newman-reporter-allure/tree/master
However, when using the latest version of newman-reporter-allure, I am still encountering the same issue—reports are not being uniquely generated across all iterations.
Could you please clarify:

• Is there a way to explicitly use the reporter created by @felipecrs while using newman-reporter-allure ?
• Alternatively, is there a configuration (parameters or metadata) that ensures all 20 reports are properly generated without being overridden?

Don't you mean to use --report-allure-collection-as-parent-suite?

[manojkumarthakur]

Yes I was looking for this command --report-allure-collection-as-parent-suite.

But, Now when I use this with allure -r cli,allure --reporter-allure-export "allure-results" --reporter-allure-collection-as-parent-suite , It's not doing the same thing as it was done with your lib @felipecrs/newman-reporter-allure with command --reporter-@felipecrs/allure-collection-as-parent-suite .
@felipecrs Could you please suggest what could be the issue and fix around it.

PS: On running with your lib I can see 20 results in Overview/Suite part of html report, when using allure it shows only 5 results in Overview/Suite part of html report. Did notice that in both cases there are 20 results in Timeline section of report.

That feature was incorporated into the official newman-allure-reporter.

But that's to be invoked using Newman, not Allure.

I don't have any other information to share, I don't use this since many years.

Thanks @felipecrs . I am using official newman-allure-reporter and passing the command using their official documentation -r cli,allure --reporter-allure-export "allure-results" --reporter-allure-collection-as-parent-suite --reporter-allure-folder-as-parent-suite . But still it does not work. Any suggestions @dtinth @vlsi @robot-c0der , how to get it around?

PS: I noticed that your report had 2 indexing and allure has only 1 indexes. PFA

[felipecrs]

Weird.

Sorry, but I don't know anything about this anymore.

If I were you, I'd try to patch the reporter myself. It's unlikely anyone else will.
