Hey @svazha :wave:

Those warnings are related to some of the dependencies in the projects, it looks like it installed without any errors. I’ll look at updating those where possible - There’s no timeline on that though.

Have you tried using Newman with the reporter? Did it successfully create a report for you?

If you have any issues with the reporter, please feel free to raise them directly on the repo:

ANd when executing:
newman run collection.json -e env.json -r htmlextra

I get below error:
newman: could not find “htmlextra” reporter
ensure that the reporter is installed in the same directory as newman
please install reporter using npm

Might sound like an obvious thing to do but I was suggest removing everything and reinstalling it again.

npm uninstall -g newman newman-reporter-htmlextra

and then installing it again

npm install -g newman newman-reporter-htmlextra

If that’s been globally installed correctly, you should be able to run this from the terminal

newman-reporter-htmlextra -v

This is working now , thanks for your help
