ReportNG 1.1 – i18n, Gradle fix, chronological ordering

Posted in Java, Software Development by Dan on May 15th, 2010

Over the last 6 weeks or so I seem to have taken an unintentional extended break from programming (and from posting here). It’s time to get back into the swing of things and top of my TODO list was putting the finishing touches to ReportNG 1.1 (ReportNG being an alternative HTML reporting plug-in for TestNG).

This new release fixes a problem people have been having using ReportNG with Gradle. It also adds internationalisation support. So now, as well as the default English text, there is also support for French and Portuguese. The Portuguese translation was contributed by Felipe Knorr Kuhn. The French text is just something I added as a proof of concept. It is likely to be offensively bad to a native French speaker and I welcome any corrections. I’d also appreciate any translations for other languages (just open an issue in the issue tracker and attach your translated version of this file).

The other major change is the addition of the “Chronology” page.  This is something that exists in the default TestNG reports that I originally decided to leave out of ReportNG. I didn’t really have a use for it but several people have asked for something similar so I have added it.
