TestingBot Service
==================

A WebdriverIO service. It updates the job metadata ('name', 'passed', 'tags', 'public', 'build', 'extra') and runs TestingBot Tunnel if desired.

## Installation

In order to use the service you need to download it from NPM:

```sh
$ npm install wdio-testingbot-service --save-dev
```

## Configuration

In order to use the service you need to set user and key in your `wdio.conf.js` file, and set the `host` option to `hub.testingbot.com`. If you want to use [TestingBot Tunnel](https://testingbot.com/support/other/tunnel) you just need to set `tbTunnel: true`.

```js
// wdio.conf.js
export.config = {
    // ...
    services: ['testingbot'],
    user: process.env.TB_KEY,
    key: process.env.TB_SECRET,
    tbTunnel: true,
    // ...
};
```

## Options

### user
Your TestingBot API KEY.

Type: `String`

### key
Your TestingBot API SECRET.

Type: `String`

### tbTunnel
If true it runs the TestingBot Tunnel and opens a secure connection between a TestingBot Virtual Machine running your browser tests.

Type: `Boolean`<br>
Default: `false`

### tbTunnelOpts
Apply TestingBot Tunnel options (e.g. to change port number or logFile settings). See [this list](https://github.com/testingbot/testingbot-tunnel-launcher) for more information.

Type: `Object`<br>
Default: `{}`
