Automation API Generator

This project has created to relieve work load as SDET or Automation Test Engineer. In moderation, automation API code able to write with only run the script and generate from Postman collection. You just export the collection, and run the Generator to write the automation code.

Objectives

Generate Postman collection with JSON format into Mocha-Chai template scripts
Applying DDT (data-driven test) mechanism to request API with a lot of datas in body request
Applying POM (page-object model) mechanism to request the API so it can be reused to another test file
Have default verification for status code and json-schema
Create scripts that easy to maintain

Prerequisite

Before run this generator mocha, you need to install:

NodeJS and NPM

Check if node and npm are successfully installed:

node -v
npm -v

Installation

For using this package name in your bash / terminal, you need to give ' (apostrophe) before and after the package name like below example. Otherwise, you will get an error.

Create your local project directory
Export your Postman collection to JSON with Collection v2.1 format
Create package.json file
```
npm init
```
Your terminal will display the option configuration for your package.json file. You may configure the input or follow the default with command:
```
npm init -y
```

Install package with npm

npm i --save-dev '@dot.indonesia/po-gen'

Generate template Mocha-Chai script with command
```
npx '@dot.indonesia/po-gen'
```
Your terminal will display the option configuration for your template, for detail:
| Question | Option / Answer | |-----|-----| | What framework will be used? | Mocha chai | | What type of modules does your project use? | Javascript modules (import/export) CommonJS (require/exports) | | Do you want to install ESlint? | Yes No | | Do you want to install Mochawesome? | Yes No |
| Type your json file to be generate (example.json): | your json file path | | Select one or more case or suite: | select your case or suite to be generate |
P.S:
- You can change the option with arrow key, based on your needs.
- To copy your file path in the last question, you can do:
  - right-click on your file
  - choose Copy as path
  - in your last question in terminal, CTRL + SHIFT + V to paste the value and ENTER
- The file path can be absolute or relative, depending on where the file is stored.

Finish, the Mocha-Chai template scripts is successfully generated

How to check if it's success:

If you have a Postman collection named "My Project" with a request inside a folder named "User".

In the terminal, there is log with format:

Generate Test tests/scenarios/<folder_name_of_Postman_collection>/<request_method>_<request_name>.spec.js completed successfully

For example:

Generate Test tests/scenario/User/POST_login.spec.js completed successfully

In the local directory:

There are tests folder
Inside tests folder, there are data, helper, pages, scenarios, schema, and utils folders
Inside pages, scenarios, and schema folder, there are folders which name same as the folder inside the Postman Collection
Inside the folder there are files that has same name as the request Postman name

For example, in the folder structure visualization:

└───tests
        ├───data
        │   └───User
        │       User.data.js
        ├───helpers
        ├───pages
        │   └───User
        │       POST_login.pages.js
        ├───scenarios
        │   └───User
        │       POST_login.spec.js
        ├───schemas
        |   └───User
        |       POST_login.schema.js
        └───utils

Template Generation

If you have installed the package and just wants to generate your JSON file, you can use this command:

  npx '@dot.indonesia/po-gen' generate

You can repeat the step for the last question in installation section.

For repetitive usage, the package will generate files based on new requests in your Postman collection. The existing files will not be replaced, instead the terminal will show a log like this:

The request of <request_name> has already created

Environment Generation

This section will generate the exported environment collection in Postman to .env files (it is optional). Furthermore, it will store the value of several data used in automation based on the environment.

Steps you can follow after you install package and init project:

Export the environment collection in Postman
Input command in terminal:
```
npx '@dot.indonesia/po-gen' env-generate
```
Your terminal will display the option configuration for your template, for detail:
| Question | Answer | |-----|-----| | Input your json file to be generate (example.json) | your environment json path P.S: it can be a relative or absolute path and you can use the same steps as installation process | | Input your environment name | your environment name, e.g dev, staging, prod |
Finish, .env file is successfully generated
How to check if its successful:
- In terminal, there is log like this:
```
Generate environment file completed successfully
```
- In your local directory, there is file .env.<your_inputted_environment_name>, for example: .env.dev
- Inside the file, there are key-values that are generated based on the exported JSON collection, for example:
```
baseUrl=baseUrl_value
username=username_value
password=password_value
```

Furthermore, you can generate the environment based on your defined development environment. For usage in your automation script, you can see the utils section below.

Lifecycle of Mocha Framework

After the template file is generated into your local directory, you can follow this lifecycle of Mocha framework:

Complete test files to meet your scenario needs --> folder: /tests/scenario
Configure request in pages file (if needed) --> folder: /tests/pages
Complete JSON-schema file to cover all your defined scenario --> folder: /tests/schema
Configure mocha configuration file if you want to customize files to be run
Run your test
You may use this command:
```
npm run regression:dev
```
Or you can configure new command in package.json file

Folder Structure and Usage

/tests/data

Folder to store data required for the tests. There will be generating from your collection request body. And it will be use in the tests which has the body in their requests. The data file is suite file which the data body including in file. The data is using driven data, so there is a default structure which unable to change.

For example:

export const login_data = [
  {
    case: {
      name: "Successful login with valid credentials",
      schema: "success",
      status: 200,
      default: true
    },
    driven: { 
      email: "[email protected]", 
      password: "password" 
    },
    attachment: {}
  }
];

case property contained test case name (name), key of schema (schema), status code expectation (status) and (default) is flag for data which generated from collection. driven property contained body or payload of the request. attachment property contained files or attachments if any.

And you can organize another cases like negative cases with the same structure data, and just put in that array.

| Key | Required | Definition | | ------------- | ------------- | ---- | | case | true | response is a key that stored object with key-value of general configurations of each data test, which are the test case name and the expected validation you can configure the key-value inside object based on your needs, whether you need the default key (name, schema, status) or maybe you need other key-value, e.g message. For default is flag for data which generated from collection| | driven | true | object to store the combination of one data test | | attachment | false | attachment is a key that stored object with key-value of body request that needs to attach some files and needs to change the default of request defined in pages file |

/tests/helpers

Folder to store required functions or methods for global use. Default will be filled with request.helper.js file (you may ignore this file).

/tests/pages

Folder to store the detail request of each API. For detailed explanation, you can go to Pages section.

/tests/scenarios

Folder to store your test files. It is linked closely with pages file, especially with the same name files. For detailed explanation, you can go to Scenarios section.

/tests/schemas

It stores the JSON of response body (if any) that will be converted automatically into JSON-schema in pages file.

Data required is JSON response, not JSON-schema. You don't need to manually convert the JSON response to a JSON schema, because this template will do it!

How to use this folder:

Default file will be filled with key success and failed
You may use this key or create your own object to store the JSON value

Prepare your JSON response that will be saved in a file along with its schema category

For example:

//schema category -> success
//it's json response
{
    "user": {
      "_id": "64c0dcaac88e770013420d7c",
      "firstName": "po",
      "lastName": "gen",
      "email": "[email protected]",
      "__v": 1
    },
    "token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJfaWQiOiI2NGMwZGNhYWM4OGU3NzAwMTM0MjBkN2MiLCJpYXQiOjE2OTA2MDE5Mzl9.tC91agJhr-0C0ocWvn5axNl2AeHtEFkzyTPsOV0SZgE"
  }

Copy the predefined JSON response to value of key that match the category

For example:

//file_name: POST_login.schema.js
export const schema = {
  success: {
    "user": {
      "_id": "64c0dcaac88e770013420d7c",
      "firstName": "po",
      "lastName": "gen",
      "email": "[email protected]",
      "__v": 1
    },
    "token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJfaWQiOiI2NGMwZGNhYWM4OGU3NzAwMTM0MjBkN2MiLCJpYXQiOjE2OTA2MDE5Mzl9.tC91agJhr-0C0ocWvn5axNl2AeHtEFkzyTPsOV0SZgE"
  },
  failed: {}
};

/tests/utils

This folder stores config.js file that will do configuration for your .env file. You can see the detail explanation here.

Scenarios

Scenarios are files that configured to manage your test

Default templates

const expect = require("chai").expect;
const chai = require("chai");
chai.use(require("chai-json-schema"));
const Request = require("@page/User/GET_getlistuser.pages.js");
const config = require("@util/config.js");

describe("Test Get List User", () => {
  it("Successful case", async () => {
    const response = await new Request().api();

    expect(response.status).to.equals(200);
    expect(response.body).to.be.jsonSchema(new Request().expect("success"));
  });
});

Import the package used, which is chai
Import the same name page file with variable name pages
The code section referred:
```
const pages = require('@pages/User/GET_getlistuser.pages.js');
```
This pages variable will be used to configure your request API in test needs.
Import config.js file, in case you need to use value from .env file
The code section referred:
```
const config = require('@utils/config')
```
There is one test suite and named with format Test <request_name_in_Postman_collection>
For example:
```
describe("Test Get List User", () => { <your_test_case_code_section> }) 
```
P.S: you can add your suite test (or describe part) based on your needs, also you can change the suite name.

There is one test case that defined as Success

Example:

it('Successful case', async () => { <your_request_and_validation> })

Build and make a request to the defined API (it has been defined in pages file)
Example:
```
const response = await new Request().api();
```
How it's done:
- since the pages file consist a class, you can create a new object from the class to use the defined method. Specific code: new Request()
- to build request specification and execute the request, you may use the api() method defined in pages file
- the response after hit the endpoint will save in response variable.
For response validation, the template create 2 default validations, which are:
- status code
- JSON schema for your body response
Example:
```
expect(response.status).to.equals(200);
expect(response.body).to.be.jsonSchema(new Request().expect("success"));
```
The new Request().expect('success') section code will get the schema that has been defined in JSON schema file. If the value is success, the template will get the JSON schema value with key success.

Default templates with body request

If your request has body, the template will give you a template of DDT usage in your test script.

const expect = require("chai").expect;
const chai = require("chai");
chai.use(require("chai-json-schema"));
const data = require("@data/Auth/auth.data.js");
const Request = require("@page/Auth/POST_login.pages.js");

describe("Test Login", () => {
  data.login_data.forEach(async (data) => {
    it(data.case.name, async () => {
      const response = await new Request().api(data.driven);

      expect(response.status).to.equals(data.case.status);
      expect(response.body).to.be.jsonSchema(
        new Request().expect(data.case.schema)
      );
    });
  });
});

data variable contained data which inmported from data file in folder data. The difference with requests that do not have a body are, except the default template:

data variable
For simple explanation:
- this variable is used to store the combination of data used for tests scenarios
- data is global import which all variable in file imported too.
- To use the data, you can call the variable with case.variable_data_name
- inside variable contained array which needed for your test
Looping for each object data.variable_data_name
After the data test is prepared in data.variable_data_name variable, the script will do looping for each object inside data array
The example code section:
```
data.login_data.forEach((data) => { <it()_code_section> })
```
Each object from data.login_data variable will be stored in data variable and will then be mapped based on needs.
Mapping for each key from object data
Each object in data variable is then mapped, like the code below, the default are:
```
it(data.case.name, async () => {
  const response = await new Request().api(data.driven);

  expect(response.status).to.equals(data.case.status);
  expect(response.body).to.be.jsonSchema(
    new Request().expect(data.case.schema)
  );
});
```
- data.response.case: the stored test case name will be used as test case name in it() function
- data.ddt: the stored ddt object will be used to detect the key-value of body request you want to change
- data.response.status: the stored status code expected will be used to validate the status code of each response API
- data.response.schema: validation of each JSON schema response will be referenced from this key
Except for the data.response.case and data.ddt mapping, you can configure the mapping freely based on the data.login_data variable you set up

P.S: You can see the detailed implementation in Implementation page

Pages

Pages is a folder to store files that configured to manage your request details.

Default templates

const chai = require("chai");
chai.use(require("chai-http"));
const request_helper = require("@helper/request.helper.js");
const config = require("@util/config.js");
const data = require("@data/Auth/auth.data.js");
const { schema } = require("@schema/Auth/POST_login.schema.js");

class Request {
  constructor() {
    // Write your constructor here, if you nee
    // Set up the api with the endpoint based on the environment and change this according to endpoint service
    this.url = "/users/login"; // Set up the API path to the route endpoint
  }

  get request() {
    return chai.request(new config().env().host);
  }

  // This method handles making the HTTP request based on given arguments.
  async api(...args) {
    // Send HTTP POST request to the specified path and send the required body with params extracted from args.
    const response = await this.request
      .post(this.url)
      .set("Content-Type", "application/json")
      .send(
        await this.getMappedBody(await new request_helper().getPayload(args))
      );

    return response;
  }

  // This method used for provide body or payload of the request and return object
  async getMappedBody(...args) {
    const defaultData = new request_helper().getDefaultData(
      data.login_data
    );
    const dataMapped = await new request_helper().mapObject(
      defaultData.driven,
      args
    );

    return dataMapped;
  }

  // This method used for provide expectation and return json schema
  expect(cases = "success") {
    return new request_helper().getSchema(schema, cases);
  }
}

module.exports = Request;

The template defines some general things, which are:

Import JSON schema file with same name file and saving it to schema variable.
```
const schema = require('@schema/User/GET_getuser.schema.js');
```
Furthermore, it will be used to get the defined response JSON body.
class Request{}
This is the main content of page file. It will consist some default methods that will be explained below. If you want to use these methods, you can create a new object in your scenarios file.
Code section:
```
class Request{ <detail_of_api> }
```
There are several detail of API that will be defined as methods, which are:
- constructor()
- request()
- api()
- getMappedBody()
- expect()
Build constructor(){} section
The constructor() method is a special method for creating and initializing objects created within a class.
By default, build the path URL.
The code section:
```
constructor() {
  this.path = "/users/login"
  }
```
This method contains a constant value of defined request, for example is path variable (to config the path of API url).
You can cofigure your constant or static value in this method.
Get request() method
By default, the template will generate the endpoint of request. It will get your defined host from .env file
```
  get request() {
    return chai.request(new config().env().host);
  }
```
Build api(){} section This section is automatically generated and used to build API requests that can be recognized by chai, you can see in this code section:
```
async api(...args) {
  const response = await this.request
    .post(this.url)
    .send(
      await this.getMappedBody(await new request_helper().getPayload(args))
    );

  return response;
}
```
It can vary according to the details of the request that is generated from your Postman collection.
By default, here is how this template works:
- method api() will receive arguments from tests file that use this request file, the arguments stored in args variable
- this method build request API with common chai syntax, which is:
```
const response = await this.request.post(this.url) 
```
- Payload
```
  .send(
    await this.getMappedBody(await new request_helper().getPayload(args))
  );
```
  To send the payload, but the first get the mapped body if any changes using this.getMappedBody() which is send the body argument.
- Return reponse request which the format is JSON using return response;
Build getMappedBody(){} section
This code section is used to build your body data (if any). By default, if your request doesn't have body, the value of this method is:
```
 async getMappedBody(...args) {
   const defaultData = new request_helper().getDefaultData(
     data.login_data
   );
   const dataMapped = await new request_helper().mapObject(
     defaultData.driven,
     args
   );

   return dataMapped;
 }
```
For detailed explanation:
- defaultData variable will store the raw JSON body that detected from your imported Postman request.
  - If the request has body, it will copy exactly same as body in Postman request. See more in this Default templates with JSON body subsection
- await new request_helper().mapObject(defaultData.driven, args section will do mapping the changes of your body
  - Instead of changing all the value in defaultData variable, mapObject() method only changes the value of key you want to change. For example, see more in this Default templates with JSON body subsection
- The mapped data saved in dataMapped and return it

If the request did not have body or payload, then getMappedBody() method will not generate

Build expect(){} section This code section is used to convert your JSON-body specified in schema file to JSON schema format. You may ignore this code section.
Default value of this section:
```
expect(cases = "success") {
  return new request_helper().getSchema(schema, cases);
}
```
For simple explanation:
- expect() method will get argument from code section that called this method. The argument will be stored in cases variable.
- this method will call getSchema() method in request_helper class which will return the converted JSON body from json() method in exported schema() class that matched with the cases value.
module.exports = Request
This section is used to export the request class so it can be used in your test file.

Default templates with attachment body

For this case, it has a default template as before, but the main difference is that it separates the request builder of text type and file type of form-data. You can see in this code section:

const chai = require("chai");
chai.use(require("chai-http"));
const request_helper = require("@helper/request.helper.js");
const config = require("@util/config.js");
const data = require("@data/Invitation Salman/invitationsalman.data.js");
const {
  schema
} = require("@schema/Invitation Salman/POST_uploadcsv.schema.js");

class Request {
  constructor() {
    // Write your constructor here, if you nee
    // Set up the api with the endpoint based on the environment and change this according to endpoint service
    this.url = "/upload/file/csv"; // Set up the API path to the route endpoint
  }

  get request() {
    return chai.request(new config().env().host);
  }

  // This method handles making the HTTP request based on given arguments.
  async api(...args) {
    const payload = new request_helper().getPayload(args)
    const attachment = new request_helper().getAttachment(args)

    // Send HTTP POST request to the specified path and send the required body with params extracted from args.
    const response = await this.request
      .post(this.url)
      .set("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data")
      .set("Platform", "BACKOFFICE")
      .set("Authorization", "Bearer {{access_token}}");

    Object.keys(await this.getMappedBody(payload)).forEach(async (key) => {
      response = await response.field(key, JSON.stringify(await this.getMappedBody(payload)[key]));
    });

    Object.keys(await this.getMappedAttachment(attachment)).forEach(
      async (key) => {
        if (
          typeof (await this.getMappedAttachment(attachment)[key]) != "object"
        ) {
          const raw = await new request_helper().getFile(
            await this.getMappedAttachment(attachment)[key]
          );
          response = await response.attach(key, raw.file, raw.name);
        } else {
          await this.getMappedAttachment(attachment)[key].forEach(
            async (val) => {
              const raw = await new request_helper().getFile(val);
              response = await response.attach(key, raw.file, raw.name);
            }
          );
        }
      }
    );

    return response;
  }

  // This method used for provide body or payload of the request and return object
  async getMappedBody(...args) {
    const defaultData = await new request_helper().getDefaultData(
      data.uploadcsv_data
    );
    const dataMapped = await new request_helper().mapObject(
      defaultData.driven,
      args
    );

    return dataMapped;
  }

  // This method used for provide attachment file and return object
  async getMappedAttachment(...args) {
    const defaultData = await new request_helper().getDefaultData(
      data.uploadcsv_data
    );
    const dataMapped = await new request_helper().mapObject(
      defaultData.driven.attachment,
      args
    );

    return dataMapped;
  }

  // This method used for provide expectation and return json schema
  expect(cases = "success") {
    return new request_helper().getSchema(schema, cases);
  }
}

module.exports = Request;

For detailed explanation:

data variable - for text type data - you may ignore this section
This variable is used to store the returned value from getPayload() method in request_helper() class. The getPayload() method will separate args arguments specific to text type data.
data variable will then be used to build the body request (this.getMappedBody(data) code part) and then be mapped in code section below:
```
Object.keys(await this.getMappedBody(payload)).forEach(async (key) => {
  response = await response.field(key, JSON.stringify(await this.getMappedBody(payload)[key]));
});
```
For each key-value in value returned from the getMappedBody() method will be mapped to chai syntax .field() and later will be used to execute the request API.

attachment variable - for file type data - you may ignore this section

If data variable is storing the text type data, attachment variable stores the file type data. If you read the scenarios section, it will get the object data of attachment keys.

Later, this variable will be used as an argument in this.getMappedAttachment(attachment) code section. For each key-value of file-type body request, it will be mapped to chai syntax .attach().

You can see that in this part code:

Object.keys(await this.getMappedAttachment(attachment)).forEach(
  async (key) => {
    if (
      typeof (await this.getMappedAttachment(attachment)[key]) != "object"
    ) {
      const raw = await new request_helper().getFile(
        await this.getMappedAttachment(attachment)[key]
      );
      response = await response.attach(key, raw.file, raw.name);
    } else {
      await this.getMappedAttachment(attachment)[key].forEach(
        async (val) => {
          const raw = await new request_helper().getFile(val);
          response = await response.attach(key, raw.file, raw.name);
        }
      );
    }
  }
);

getMappedAttachment() method
It has the similar specification with body() method, as you can see:
```
async getMappedAttachment(...args) {
  const defaultData = await new request_helper().getDefaultData(
    data.uploadcsv_data
  );
  const dataMapped = await new request_helper().mapObject(
    defaultData.driven.attachment,
    args
  );

  return dataMapped;
}
```
For detailed explanation:
- This method has defaultData variable that will stores the key-value of body request that has file type. It is assigned from default data.
  You can define the static of default value of request key in this variable. Also, you can use the relative or absolute path for the value, but it is recommended to use a relative path based on your project root.
- mapObject() method of request_helper() class will map the key-value defined in defaultData variable to the args variable of the arguments in getMappedAttachment() method.

If You Need Other Arguments

In case you need to pass data (except the data.driven) from scenario file to page file, you can use the concept of rest argument in method/function, which are location sensitive based on the value passed from method usage and method definition.

For example, you need to pass below data from scenario file to your request builder in page file:

token
id
query
path URL
etc, something similar

you can use this configuration steps:

Define the value of argument in api() method in scenario file.
For example the token and id value:
```
await new Request().api(token, id, data.driven);
```
Map the argument passed in api() method from scenario file to your request builder in page file.
For above case, you want to map token and id value in your request API. The api() method in page file will look like this:
```
api(...args) {
  const response = await this.request
    .post(this.url + args[1])
    .set("Authorization", "Bearer " + args[0])
   
  return response
}
```
The simple explanation:
- arguments in first index (args[0]) is used to store the token value in scenario file, so you map it to the token value in your API request.
  Code section:
```
"Bearer " + args[0] 
```
- arguments in second index (args[1]) is used to store the id value for URL path in scenario file, so you map it to the id value in your API request.
  Code section:
```
this.path + args[1]
```

You can configure the scenario-related data needs in your scenario files and configure the data mapping in your page file.

Utils

This folder, especially config.js files, is used to configure the environment-based data value that will be used in automation script.

This pattern was created to meet the need to run scripts in different environments, where each environment has different test data

How it works:

The config.js file will recognize the environment value that being executed in terminal when running the tests.
You can see or configure it in package.json file specific in scripts key. By default, one of the values is:
```
"regression:dev": "cross-env NODE_ENV=dev mocha --specs Regression --timeout 15000"
```
From above, we know that the NODE_ENV value is dev. Furthermore, this value will be used to recognize the .env file that has been created. In this case, it will get the value from .env.dev file.
env() method stores the value from defined .env file into key that will be used in your automation script.
For example:
```
env() {
    dotenv.config({ path: __dirname + `/../../.env.${process.env.NODE_ENV}` });

    const env = {
        host: process.env.MAIN
    }
   
    return env
}
```
By default, it gives example for MAIN key in .env file. Value of MAIN will be saved in host key. Later, it will be used in pages file like this:
```
this.api = chai.request(new config().env().host)
```

So, if you want to configure and use your .env data, you can follow this step:

Create key-value in your .env file For example:
```
USERNAME=username_value
```
Create new key in env variable inside env() method with value being the key of value defined in .env file.
For example:
```
const env = {
  host: process.env.MAIN,
  username: process.env.USERNAME //this is the new key-value
}
```
Use the key in env variable in your script file
For example:
```
const config = require('../../utils/config.js')

const username = new config().env().username;
```
How to use the env variable:
- create new config() class
- use the env() method
- get the key defined (.username)

Configuration File

Configuration file is the important file to run the test. This is using the default Mocha config .mocharc.js which is include some options. Here is default file after generating the test.

const runTestsList = {
  Auth: [
    "tests/scenarios/Auth/POST_login.spec.js",
    "tests/scenarios/Auth/POST_logout.spec.js"
  ],
  Base: ["tests/scenarios/GET_profile.spec.js"],
  Regression: "tests/scenarios/**/*.spec.js"
};

const ignoreTestsList = [
  // write your ignore tests here
];

function getSpecsList() {
  const runOptArgument = process.argv.indexOf("--specs");
  const runOpt = runOptArgument !== -1 ? process.argv[runOptArgument + 1] : "Regression";

  if (runOpt.includes("/") || runOpt in runTestsList) {
    return runTestsList[runOpt];
  }

  if (runOpt.includes(",")) {
    return runOpt.split(",").flatMap((key) => runTestsList[key]);
  }
}

module.exports = {
  require: ["@babel/register"],
  jobs: 1,
  package: "./package.json",
  reporter: "spec",
  ignore: ignoreTestsList,
  spec: getSpecsList(),
  "trace-warnings": true,
  ui: "bdd"
};

The config export some option for test.

require import some dependencies needed
jobs the test run in one task on one time. If you want to run some test on one time, just add how much you want
package call the package.json
reporter report style for showing the result of tests
ignore list of ignore or skip test file. The list of tests path collected in variable ignoreTestsList which is array formatted
spec list of test file will be execute. There is funtion to filter input runner, and return array from runTestsList variabel. In runTestsList variabel there is some default keys. The keys has generated from suite in your JSON collection, for example Auth which include some path file. And the other key is Base which has generated if the test file does'nt have suite. And Regression key, it is key for run all test file in scenario folder
trace-warnings debug mode
ui style of the test using bdd.

How to run the tests

Actually to run test is so easy. There is using script from package.json which is linked with config file.

"scripts": {
  "regression:dev": "cross-env NODE_ENV=dev mocha --specs Regression --timeout 15000"
}

As default, the regression:dev will generate. Look at the scripts syntax, you can see --specs argument. It is use to identify the key of the runTestsList in config file. This is some way to run the test:

Run only one test file:

"scripts": {
  "login:dev": "cross-env NODE_ENV=dev mocha --specs tests/scenarios/Auth/POST_login.spec.js --timeout 15000"
}

You just copy the path of your test file and put in --specs argument in scripts

Run a suite:

"scripts": {
  "asuite:dev": "cross-env NODE_ENV=dev mocha --specs Auth --timeout 15000"
}

You just call the suite name in --specs argument

Run some suite:
```
"scripts": {
  "somesuite:dev": "cross-env NODE_ENV=dev mocha --specs Auth,Base --timeout 15000"
}
```
You can call the suites name in --specs argument, and you should serapate them with comma (,)
