Installation

Install the npm package

npm install @orangebeard-io/newman-reporter-orangebeard

Configuration

Create orangebeard.json (in your collection's folder (or above))

{
	"endpoint": "https://XXX.orangebeard.app",
	"accessToken": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-00000000",
	"project": "my_project_name",
	"testset": "My Test Set Name"
}

Running

From the command line:

newman run ./postman-collection.json -r @orangebeard-io/orangebeard

Or configure using the CLI (without orangebeard.json):

newman run ./collection.json -r @orangebeard-io/orangebeard \
--reporter-@orangebeard-io/orangebeard-endpoint=https://my.orangebeard.app \
--reporter-@orangebeard-io/orangebeard-token=00000000-0000-0000-00000000 \
--reporter-@orangebeard-io/orangebeard-testset=testset_name \
--reporter-@orangebeard-io/orangebeard-project=project_name \
--reporter-@orangebeard-io/orangebeard-description=description \
--reporter-@orangebeard-io/orangebeard-attributes=key:value;secondkey:secondvalue;singleTag

Note: Description and attributes are optional.

Or programmatically:

const newman = require('newman');

newman.run(
  {
    collection: './collection.json',
    reporters: '@orangebeard-io/orangebeard',
    reporter: {
      '@orangebeard-io/orangebeard': {
        endpoint: 'https://my.orangebeard.app',
        token: '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000',
        testset: 'testset_name',
        project: 'project_name',
        description: 'description',
        attributes: [
          {
            key: 'key',
            value: 'val',
          },
          {
            value: 'singleTag',
          },
        ],
      },
    },
  },
  function (err) {
    if (err) {
      throw err;
    }
    console.log('collection run complete!');
  },
);

Using Postman CLI JSON reports

If you use the Postman CLI with its JSON reporter, you can import those JSON reports into Orangebeard using the CLI utility that ships with this package.

1. Generate a JSON report with Postman CLI

From your API project, run the Postman CLI with JSON output enabled (example):

postman collection run ./VAmPI.postman_collection.json \
  --reporters json \
  --reporter-json-export ./postman-cli-reports/VAmPI-report.json

This produces a JSON file containing a run object with executions, similar to the examples under example_pm_collection/postman-cli-reports/ in this repository.

2. Report the JSON run to Orangebeard

From this package's directory (with your Orangebeard configuration already set up, e.g. via orangebeard.json or environment):

npm run report:postman-cli-json -- ./example_pm_collection/postman-cli-reports/VAmPI-report.json

Or, if the package is installed globally or as a project dependency:

postman-cli-to-orangebeard ./example_pm_collection/postman-cli-reports/VAmPI-report.json

The utility will:

• Create an Orangebeard test run using the same automatic configuration logic as the Newman reporter.
• Create one Orangebeard test per request in the JSON report.
• Log request and response metadata in Markdown, including headers and JSON/XML bodies in fenced code blocks.
• Map Postman tests/assertions to Orangebeard steps, attaching error messages and stack traces when they fail.
• Use the timing information from the report to reconstruct start/end timestamps per test and for the entire run.
