Converting TestStand Deployment Utility results to JUnit

[WireWeaver]

Overview

TestStand XML reports can be converted to other formats using eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT). This can be useful for importing Analyzer Warnings or Errors into a tool that is not compatible with the TestStand XML report schema.

Description

This example takes the TSDU Detailed Status Log and converts it to a JUnit report format compatible with the Jenkins JUnit plugin. This allows users to view TSDU Errors, Warnings, and Information in Jenkins:

Note: TSDU Warnings and Errors are not user configurable. This will cause Jenkins to mark a build with any warnings build as 'Unstable'. If you would rather ignore these warnings, modify this stylesheet to remove the <xsl:if test = "@severity = 'Warn'"> tag
