Quick Start

Get Actions Insights running in your workflow with sensible defaults. All four output channels are enabled except the history repository.

Minimal Workflow

permissions:
  contents: read
  pull-requests: write
  checks: write

jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: Run tests
        run: dotnet test --logger "trx;LogFileName=results.trx"

      - name: Publish test report
        uses: mzbrau/actions-insights@v1
        with:
          test-results: '**/*.trx'

This configuration:

• Posts a PR comment with failure details (when running on a pull request)
• Writes a workflow summary with failed and slow tests
• Publishes a GitHub Check with annotations
• Uploads an HTML report as a workflow artifact

Supported Formats

Format	File patterns
TRX	*.trx
JUnit XML	*.xml (JUnit schema)
NUnit XML	*.xml (NUnit schema)
xUnit XML	*.xml (xUnit schema)

What Happens Next

After your workflow runs:

1. Open the pull request to see the test summary comment
2. Open the workflow run to see the job summary table
3. Download the actions-insights-report artifact for the full interactive HTML report

Customise Your Setup

The defaults work for most teams, but you can enable or disable individual outputs:

• Choose Your Outputs — decision guide for each output channel
• Prepare Test Output — ensure your test runner writes compatible files
• Example Workflows — common configuration patterns
