--- stage: Verify group: Pipeline Insights info: To determine the technical writer assigned to the Stage/Group associated with this page, see https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/ux/technical-writing/#assignments --- # GitLab CI/CD artifacts reports types **(FREE)** Use [`artifacts:reports`](index.md#artifactsreports) to: - Collect test reports, code quality reports, security reports, and other artifacts generated by included templates in jobs. - Some of these reports are used to display information in: - Merge requests. - Pipeline views. - [Security dashboards](../../user/application_security/security_dashboard/index.md). The test reports are collected regardless of the job results (success or failure). You can use [`artifacts:expire_in`](index.md#artifactsexpire_in) to set up an expiration date for their artifacts. Some `artifacts:reports` types can be generated by multiple jobs in the same pipeline, and used by merge request or pipeline features from each job. To be able to browse the report output files, include the [`artifacts:paths`](index.md#artifactspaths) keyword. NOTE: Combined reports in parent pipelines using [artifacts from child pipelines](index.md#needspipelinejob) is not supported. Track progress on adding support in [this issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/215725). ## `artifacts:reports:accessibility` > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/39425) in GitLab 12.8.
