# Format Test Results As A JSON File
|
|
|
|
The most common output format for RSpec test results is _progress_ which shows
|
|
the dot (`.`) or `F` for each test pass and fail. RSpec supports other formats,
|
|
including JSON.
|
|
|
|
You'd typically want to use the JSON format when you want to programmatically
|
|
work with the results. And the results would be most accessible if they ended
|
|
up in a file.
|
|
|
|
So, when formatting the results to JSON, we typically also want to specify an
|
|
output file. We'll need to use two flags — `--format` and `--out`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ rspec --format json --out test_run_1.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When this test run completes, we will have the results in JSON format in the
|
|
newly created `test_run_1.json` file in the current directory.
|
|
|
|
See `rspec --help` for more details.
