    "escapeTestOutput":  false,
    "retention": {

}

For Ghpr.Core it is called Ghpr.Core.Settings.json. This file is included in NuGet package. For different testing frameworks (MSTest, NUnit, SpecFlow) there are separate settings files. Separate files are needed to let Ghpr.Core use different settings for different testing frameworks.

The default section stands for defalut configuration, which includes the following information:

runsToDisplay: if > 0 the reporter will load only this specified number of the latest runs on test run page.
testsToDisplay: if > 0 the reporter will load only this specified number of the latest test runs on test history page.
dataServiceFile: the name of the library which contains implementation of IDataService, will be distributed as a separate NuGet package will you should include as a dependency in your solution with tests. Can't be empty.
loggerFile: the name the library that will be used for internal logging of Ghpr itself.
escapeTestOutput: boolean value to tell Ghpr to escape some characters like < and > inside test output tabs.
retention - settings for running clean up job:
- amount - total runs that will be left, all other will be deleted.
- till - all runs with finish date older than this value will be deleted. Date format is yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss

projects section is the array of pairs pattern and settings.

pattern - is a wildcard for you project name.
settings - has the same structure as default sections. If your project name matches the pattern then settings section will be applied (instead of default section) as GHPReporter settings for your test run.

How to publish the report in Jenkins

In the configuration of your job, in the "Post-build actions", you just have to add a "Publish HTML reports" with the correct informations.

Known Issues :

Due to the CSP (Content Security Policy), the report used for the functionals tests is not viewable on Jenkins with the default value defined for the CSP. So, for solving this issue, the CSP is automatically forced after each restart with a specific value. For that, a line is added in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins\jenkins.xml file, like this : ... -Xrs -Xmx256m -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle "-Dhudson.model.DirectoryBrowserSupport.CSP=" -jar -Dmail.smtp.starttls.enable=true "%BASE%\jenkins.war" --httpPort=8080 --webroot="%BASE%\war" ...
