Here are some steps that might help you resolve the issue: Ensure that you have installed the @wdio/allure-reporter package as a devDependency in your package.json file. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal: npm install @wdio/allure-reporter --save-dev 1. Configure the output directory in your wdio.conf.js file. You can do this by adding the following code snippet to your configuration file: reporters: [['allure', { outputDir: 'allure-results', disableWebdriverStepsReporting: true, disableWebdriverScreenshotsReporting: true, }]], The outputDir parameter specifies the directory where the report will be generated. The disableWebdriverStepsReporting and disableWebdriverScreenshotsReporting parameters are optional and can be used to disable reporting of webdriver steps and screenshots respectively1. Ensure that you have the latest version of allure-commandline installed. You can install it by running the following command in your terminal: npm install -g allure-commandline 2. If you are running multiple devices in parallel using grid, ensure that you have configured the maxInstances parameter in your wdio.conf.js file. This parameter specifies the maximum number of instances that can run in parallel3. I hope this helps. Thanks

When running test cases in parallel using WDIO (WebdriverIO), generating Allure reports can sometimes be challenging. However, with the right configuration and setup, you can successfully generate Allure reports for your parallel test runs. To generate Allure reports in WDIO parallel execution, follow these steps: Install the necessary dependencies: npm install @wdio/allure-reporter --save-dev Configure the WDIO configuration file ( wdio.conf.js ) to include the Allure reporter: // wdio.conf.js exports.config = { // ... reporters: [['allure', { outputDir: './allure-results', disableWebdriverStepsReporting: true, disableWebdriverScreenshotsReporting: true, }]], // ... }; Run your test suite in parallel mode: npx wdio wdio.conf.js --parallel After the test execution is complete, navigate to the allure-results directory to find the generated XML files. Generate the Allure report by running the following command: npx allure generate allure-results --clean -o allure-report Open the generated report by running: npx allure open By following these steps, you should be able to generate Allure reports successfully even when running test cases in parallel using WDIO. Remember to adjust the configuration and file paths according to your project structure and requirements.
