Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

parse

✓ from xunitparser import parse

✗ import xunitparser; ts, tr = xunitparser.parse(open('file.xml'))

Wrong: Using module-level function without importing explicitly leads to confusion. Correct: from xunitparser import parse

XmlTestSuite

✓ from xunitparser import XmlTestSuite

Parse a JUnit XML file and print summary.

from xunitparser import parse import sys with open('test-results.xml') as f: ts, tr = parse(f) print(f'Testsuite: {ts.name}, tests: {ts.tests}, failures: {ts.failures}, errors: {ts.errors}') for tc in ts: print(f' Testcase: {tc.methodname} - {tc.result}')

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe parse() function returns two values: (testsuite, testresult). The testresult object is often ignored but contains overall counts. Many users forget to unpack both.

fix

Always unpack both: ts, tr = parse(f) even if you don't use tr.

affects: all

gotchaThe library only handles JUnit XML format. Variants from pytest (--junitxml) or other runners may produce slightly different XML that fails to parse.

fix

Ensure the XML file is standard JUnit format. For pytest output, use 'pytest --junitxml=report.xml' and note that xunitparser handles it well.

affects: all

deprecatedThe library has not been updated since 2018. It uses ancient Python idioms and may not support Python 3.10+ fully (though it still works).

fix

Consider alternatives like junitparser or junit-xml if you need active maintenance.

affects: <1.3.4

Errors

Common errors & fixes

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'name'

parse() returned None for testsuite when the XML could not be parsed, or the file was empty.

fix

Check that the XML file is valid and contains a <testsuite> element. Wrap parse in try-except.

TypeError: 'module' object is not callable

Using 'xunitparser.parse()' without importing the parse function correctly.

fix

Use: from xunitparser import parse
