I'm trying to use Allure-framework to generate a report for my Selenium WebDriver tests. I use JUnit framework and allure-maven-plugin with version 1.3.9 of Allure. I run tests with mvn test then generate the report using mvn site. I see generated report in target/site/allure-maven-plugin/ directory. When I open index.html page with Firefox it works normally. However when doing the same thing in Chrome or Safari I see nothing.

What's wrong? Am I missing something? My pom.xml file is located here.

This problem is related to default Webkit security settings which forbid doing Ajax requests on the local filesystem. You have at least two possible solutions:

  1. Serve index.html with some web-server like Nginx or Apache. This will emulate remote website and thus trick your browser. With Allure CLI 2.0+ this can be done using the following command:

$ allure report open

  1. Use --allow-file-access-from-files Chrome flag. See details in this question.

    If you're using Java and Maven you can also use Jetty and respective [plugin for Maven](http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.mortbay.jetty/jetty-maven-plugin). – vania-pooh Jun 03 '14 at 09:12

    Btw, if you're not 100% Chrome fan you can simply use Firefox which doesn't have this issue. – vania-pooh Aug 07 '14 at 13:59

    slight change in the command as of Sep 2019. allure open command: allure open Allure-Reports – sumon c Sep 17 '19 at 22:28

To use allure report in chrome, you have two options:

  • Use mvn allure:serve target. It will generate the report and open a tab in Chrome (if default browser)
  • Generate the report using mvn allure:report target and serve the site your self, using any http server. if you have node you can use http-server for example npm install http-server -g and then http-server target/site/allure-maven-plugin)

DO NOT use --allow-file-access-from-files flag, is it DANDEGEROUS

To open your report in Chrome browser use the below command in cmd prompt

allure open path_to_allure_report_folder

This will open your report.

In Addition to the above answer using "--ignore-certifcate-errors" with chromeOptions might be helpfull.

DesiredCapabilities capabilities;
capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
chromeOptions.addArguments("--ignore-certifcate-errors");
chromeOptions.addArguments("test-type");
capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, chromeOptions);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(capabilities);
