At event RESULT_PRINT_AFTER - Codeception 5 - file report.htlm is not exist yet

[maxrexfax]

What are you trying to achieve?

I was trying to edit report.html file using RESULT_PRINT_AFTER event.

What do you get instead?

I got message File not exist inside public function resultPrintAfter(\Codeception\Event\PrintResultEvent $e) function.

Provide console output if related. Use -vvv mode for more details.
Rude check with

public function resultPrintAfter(\Codeception\Event\PrintResultEvent $e): void
    {
        exit('---------------------------------');

... shows EMPTY folder .../codeception/tests/_output

# paste output here
```php vendor/bin/codecept run --steps --html --xml --phpunit-xml```
> Provide test source code if related

```php
// paste test

With PHP8.0 same result

[Naktibalda]

Probably your method is executed before HtmlReporter::afterResult

[maxrexfax]

public static $events = array(
        Events::SUITE_BEFORE => 'suiteBefore',
        Events::RESULT_PRINT_AFTER => 'resultPrintAfter',
    );
 public function resultPrintAfter(\Codeception\Event\PrintResultEvent $e): void
    {
        exit('LINE:' . __LINE__ . '------------- public function resultPrintAfter --------------------');
//     

AND
Folder _output contains only json files with error description but NO result.html exist.

[maxrexfax]

On the page https://codeception.com/docs/Customization there is no information about HtmlReporter::afterResult. Are we both talking about Codeception REST API testing?

[Naktibalda]

There is no information about report.html in that page either.

Why do you even expect report.html to exist during test run?
If you want to modify report.html, it would be better to extend HtmlReporter and use your reporter instead, as described at https://codeception.com/docs/Reporting#Custom-Reporter

Thank you for information!
