Dot Reporter

The dot reporter is the default reporter for the WDIO test runner. It’s therefor a dependency of WebdriverIO and doesn’t need to get downloaded. To use the dot reporter just add 'dot' to the reporters array:

1
2
3
4
5
6

// wdio.conf.js
module.exports = {
  // ...
  reporters: ['dot'],
  // ...
};

The dot reporter prints a dot for each test spec. If colors are enabled on your machine, you will see three different colors for dots. A yellow dot means that at least one browser has executed that spec. A green dot means that all browsers have passed that spec. A red dot means that at least one browser has failed that spec.
