How to add custom metadata to automation tests in Mocha-js on LambdaTest

If you want to add custom metadata to automation tests in Mocha-js on LambdaTest, you can follow the steps below. You can refer to sample test repo here.

Steps

With LambdaTest, you can add custom meta data to automation tests. These are added for tests by setting the data in customData capability. The code below illustrates the usage:

exports.capabilities = {
        'build': 'Mocha-Selenium-Sample', //Build name
        'name': 'Your Test Name', // Test name
        'platform':'Windows 10', // OS name
        'browserName': 'chrome', // Browser name
        'version': 'latest', // Browser version
        'visual': false,  // To take step by step screenshot
        'network':false,  // To capture network Logs
        'console':false, // To capture console logs.
        'tunnel': false, // If you want to run the localhost than change it to true
        "customData": [ 	
						{ "_id": "5f46aaa69adf77cfe2bb4fd6", 
						"index": "0", 
						"guid": "9451b204-12f0-4177-8fe9-fb019b3e4bf3", 
						"isActive": "False", 
						"picture": "http//placehold.it/32x32" } ]
};
