Executing Newman REST API tests using Jenkins on Linux - linux

Question

I found this answer Integrate Postman test scripts with Jenkins build server (and possibly there are other ones that could answer my question but I just suck at finding them) but I am still running into issues. I am trying to execute the following with newman v3 using jenkins as a way to automate our REST API Testing.
My Execute Shell script looks like this under the Build steps in the jenkins job
#!/bin/bash
pwd
cd ${PROJECT_NAME}/${GIT_SUBFOLDER}
pwd
ls
newman run ${COLLECTION_NAME} -e ${ENVIRONMENT_NAME} -r html,cli,json,junit --insecure
Ignore the pwds and ls as I originally thought I wasn't in the right directory for my collection and environment exports.
The error I keep getting back in jenkins is:
/tmp/hudson1153303836033593524.sh: line 6: newman: command not found
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Got your problem, Seems that you are trying to execute your project as shell script in jenkins and jenkins cant get newmanHere is the solution, might solve your problemIn your script export path where npm modules get installedLocate node_modules for your system generally its at /usr/local/lib/node_modulesNow add line in your script which will export PATH:
#!/bin/bash
export PATH="<Your node_module Path>:$PATH"
pwd
cd ${PROJECT_NAME}/${GIT_SUBFOLDER}
pwd
ls
newman run ${COLLECTION_NAME} -e ${ENVIRONMENT_NAME} -r html,cli,json,junit --insecure
