Unable to install Allure CLI on Ubuntu 15.10

Question

According to a documentation it is possible to install Allure CLI with sudo apt-get install allure-commandline command.

But only Trusty and Precise distributions are supported, hence I can not install it on my Ubuntu 15.10 system.

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:yandex-qatools/allure-framework
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install allure-commandline

Result:

E: Unable to locate package allure-commandline

Is there another way to install Allure CLI package on Ubuntu 15.10?

Solution 1

To install Allure you need to do the following steps:

• Download the latest version as zip archive from https://github.com/allure-framework/allure-core/releases/latest.
• Unpack the archive to allure-commandline directory.
• Navigate to bin directory.
• Use allure script to run commandline.

So you can also add unpacked directory to the PATH and then use allure command as well.

Solution 2

Here is my script for Ubuntu:

# install Java
sudo apt update
sudo apt install default-jre -y
sudo apt install default-jdk -y
javac -version

# install allure
mkdir allure
cd allure
wget https://github.com/allure-framework/allure2/releases/download/2.13.8/allure-2.13.8.zip

sudo apt install unzip -y
unzip allure-2.13.8.zip

And then you can use

./allure serve --port 8080 {your_folder_with_xml_results}
