Failed tests sample report
Azure DevOps Services
This article shows you how to create a report that shows the list of failed tests for a pipeline.
An example is shown in the following image.

Specifically, you'll find sample queries for the following reports:
- Failed tests for build workflow
- Failed tests for release workflow
- Failed tests for a particular branch
- Failed tests for a particular test file
- Failed tests for a particular test owner
Important
Power BI integration and access to the OData feed of the Analytics Service are in Preview. The sample queries provided in this article are valid only against Azure DevOps Services and depend on v3.0-preview or later version. We encourage you to use these queries and provide us feedback.
Prerequisites
- You must be a member of a project with Basic access or higher. If you haven't been added as a project member, get added now. Anyone with access to the project, except stakeholders, can view Analytics views.
- For Analytics data to be available, the corresponding service must be enabled. For example, to query work tracking data, Boards must be enabled. If it is disabled, Analytics views won't be displayed. To re-enable a service, see Turn an Azure DevOps service on or off
- To use Analytics views, enable the Analytics Views preview feature either for individual users or for the organization.
- Also, you must have your *View Analytics permission set to Allow. For more information, see Grant permissions to access the Analytics service.
- To use Power BI for Azure DevOps or to exercise an OData query for Analytics, you must must have your View Analytics permission set to Allow. By default, all Contributors with Basic access are granted access. To edit shared Analytics views, you must have your Edit shared Analytics views permission set to Allow. For more information, see Grant permissions to access the Analytics service.
Sample queries
Note
This article assumes you've read Overview of Sample Reports using OData Queries and have a basic understanding of Power BI.
You can paste the Power BI query listed below directly into the Get Data->Blank Query window. For more information, review Overview of sample reports using OData queries.

Substitution strings
Each query contains the following strings that you must replace with your values. Don't include brackets {} with your substitution. For example if your organization name is "Fabrikam", replace {organization} with Fabrikam, not {Fabrikam}.
{organization}- Your organization name{project}- Your team project name{pipelinename}- Your pipeline name. Example:Fabrikam hourly build pipeline.{startdate}- The date to start your report. Format: YYYY-MM-DDZ. Example:2021-09-01Zrepresents September 1, 2021. Don't enclose in quotes or brackets and use two digits for both, month and date.
Query breakdown
The following table describes each part of the query.
Query part
Description
$apply=filter(
Start filter()
Pipeline/PipelineName eq '{pipelineName}'
Return test runs for the specified pipeline
and CompletedOn/Date ge {startdate}
Return test runs on or after the specified date
and Workflow eq 'Build'
Return test runs for 'Build' workflow
)
Close filter()
/groupby(
Start groupby()
(TestSK, Test/TestName),
Group by the test Name
aggregate(
Start aggregate. For all the test runs matching the above filter criteria:
ResultCount with sum as TotalCount,
Count the total number of test runs as TotalCount
ResultPassCount with sum as PassedCount,
Count the total number of passed test runs as PassedCount.
ResultFailCount with sum as FailedCount,
Count the total number of failed test runs as FailedCount.
ResultNotExecutedCount with sum as NotExecutedCount
Count the total number of not executed test runs as NotExecutedCount.
ResultNotImpactedCount with sum as NotImpactedCount,
Count the total number of not affected test runs as NotImpactedCount.
ResultFlakyCount with sum as FlakyCount
Count the total number of flaky test runs as FlakyCount.
))
Close aggregate() and groupby()
/compute(
Start compute()
iif(TotalCount gt NotExecutedCount, ((PassedCount add NotImpactedCount) div cast(TotalCount sub NotExecutedCount, Edm.Decimal)) mul 100, 0) as PassRate
For all the tests, calculate Pass rate.
)
Close compute()
Power BI transforms
The query returns some columns that you need to expand and flatten into its fields before you can use them in Power BI. In this example, such an entity is Test.
After closing the Advanced Editor and while remaining in the Power Query Editor, select the expand button on Test.
Expand the Test column
Choose the expand button

Select the checkbox "(Select All Columns)" to expand

The table now contains the expanded entity Test.TestName.

Change column type
The query doesn't return all the columns in the format in which you can directly consume them in Power BI reports. You can change the column type as shown.
Change the type of column TotalCount, PassedCount, FailedCount, NotExecutedCount, **NotImpactedCount, and FlakyCount to Whole Number.

Change the type of column PassRate to Decimal Number.

Rename fields and query, then Close & Apply
When finished, you may choose to rename columns.
Right-click a column header and select Rename...

You also may want to rename the query from the default Query1, to something more meaningful.

Once done, choose Close & Apply to save the query and return to Power BI.

Create the report
Power BI shows you the fields you can report on.
Note
The example below assumes that no one renamed any columns.

For a simple report, do the following steps:
- Select Power BI Visualization Table.
- Add the field "Test.TestName" to Values.
- Add the field "TotalCount" to Values.
- Add the field "PassedCount" to Values.
- Add the field "FailedCount" to Values.
- Add the field "NotImpactedCount" to Values.
- Add the field "NotExecutedCount" to Values.
- Add the field "FlakyCount" to Values.
- Add the field "PassRate" to Values
Your report should look like this.

You can use the following other queries to create different but similar reports using the same steps defined previously in this article.
