flake8-formatter-junit-xml
JUnit XML Formatter for flake8
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you need JUnit XML output from flake8 and your CI/CD pipeline already expects that format. Install friction is minimal and there are no known vulnerabilities. However, the package is dormant (last release April 2018) and untested against recent flake8 versions, so verify compatibility with your current flake8 before relying on it in production.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Low friction install with just two runtime dependencies (flake8 and junit-xml).
- Package is dormant—last release in April 2018, no commits since October 2023—but the archived flag is false and it carries no known vulnerabilities, so it remains usable for its narrow purpose.

Verify before relying

- Whether junit-xml output format remains compatible with modern CI systems
What it is and what it does
This is a flake8 plugin that redirects linting violations into JUnit XML format instead of flake8's default text output. It depends on flake8 for linting and junit-xml to generate the XML structure, making it a thin adapter between the two.
You install it alongside flake8, then pass `--format junit-xml` to flake8's command line. The result is an XML report that CI/CD pipelines, test aggregators, and IDE test runners can parse and display. It's designed for teams that already use JUnit-based reporting infrastructure and want linting results in the same format as their unit tests.
Use it for
- Integrate flake8 linting into Jenkins or other CI systems that natively consume JUnit XML reports
- Aggregate Python linting violations alongside unit test results in a single test report
- Feed flake8 output to IDE test runners or reporting dashboards that expect JUnit format
- Archive linting violations in a machine-readable format for compliance or audit trails
