Behave html report name

[aamer436]

can we customise the report name which appears on the report. Currently it is displayed as 'Behave Test Report'

You can set the title attribute of the HTMLFormatter class in Python code. Not by any settings in a configuration file, I'm afraid.

What would be your preferred way of setting a custom document title?

[aamer436]

I am new to Behave , not sure how to write syntax for the approach you mentioned above.

Please help.

You'd have to write your own formatter, inheriting from HTMLFormatter, overriding the title attribute in the constructor of your formatter class.

Alternatively, find out an elegant way how to make the title attribute customizable in this formatter, and open a PR to enhance our public implementation.

Either way, you have to do some (substantial) programming, I'm afraid. – I hope that helps.

The behave-html-formatter could support a number of parameters as Userdata parameters, like:

# -- FILE: behave.ini
# CONVENTION: Use "behave.formatter.<FORMATTER_NAME>." as scope prefix for userdata parameters
[behave.user_data]
behave.formatter.html.report_name = "My report name"
behave.formatter.html.xxx = 123

These formatter specific Userdata parameters can be supplied/overwritten by a user (on the command-line or in the config-file, like:

$ behave -f html -D behave.formatter.html.report_name="My Report Name" features/

I would like to offer you an alternative html formatter under behave-contrib which is behave-html-pretty-formatter that supports this feature.

I believe that it is not out of place to say that this project will no longer be receiving updates from our team (@modehnal @fpokryvk @schidlo ) since we have opted to do a complete re-implementation from scratch in form of a new formatter mentioned above. New formatter is much easier to maintain and improve with new features.

We have opted to not do the changes in this project to provide a choice for those who prefer this version.
