How to send a report through email using Selenium Webdriver?
We can send a report through email using Selenium webdriver. The email report can be an important feature in an automation framework. An email should be necessarily sent after the combined execution of a regression suite has completed to get an overall view of the test results.
The ways to send a report through email are listed below −
Using the Java library - Apache Commons available in the below link: https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-email/.
Using the Java mail JAR. The details of this is available in the below link: https://javaee.github.io/javamail/
Steps to configure the Java mail JAR are listed below −
Step1 − Navigate to the below link − https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/javax.mail/javax.mail-api/1.6.2 and add the JAR to the project by clicking the highlighted link −
In case, we have a Maven project, add the dependency in the pom.xml file as highlighted in the below image −
Step2 − We should have the report generated in a separate file.

// configure multi-media email

// adding body texts

mm.addBodyPart(b);
// add email content
m.setContent(mm);
// email sending
Transport.send(m);
System.out.println("MAIL TRIGGERED");
} catch (MessagingException ex) {
throw new RuntimeException(ex);
}
}
