Readme
The integration test runner is a command line tool for developing and running integrated end-to-end tests for the scm-manager. It also serves as a library for common functionality required in testing.
Installation
Install the @scm-manager/integration-test-runner
as dev dependency:
yarn add --dev @scm-manager/integration-test-runner
# or
npm install --save-dev @scm-manager/integration-test-runner
Initialize a plugin for the development of e2e tests:
node_modules/.bin/integration-test-runner init
Usage
In addition to setting up the folder structure under src/test/e2e
and creating a test example, the init
command creates a new e2e
script entry in the plugin's package.json
.
You can execute it directly for local testing, but the build pipeline will also run this for verification:
yarn run e2e
Hint: The
collect
andprovision
commands are only used internally and not relevant to plugin development.
Structure
The testing closely follows Cypress original structure. All tests are written in Typescript
.
Most of what you need is generated for you by the init
command.
Common commands are already integrated for you and are freely available for usage within your tests.
Currently, no custom or third-party Cypress plugins are allowed to be installed by SCM-Manager plugins and a default plugins file is generated that must not be changed.
Writing Tests
All you need to add is the tests and any commands specific to your plugin.
The test files go in the integration
directory and follow the file name pattern <testname>_spec.ts
.
The organization of the tests and which folders you create is up to you.
If you need to create files with test data, put them into the fixtures
directory.
The default fixture file name convention is <plugin_name>_<fixture_name>.<file_extension>
.
If you need to import the data, please use the fixture command.
All of this is to ensure uniqueness when combining tests of different plugins in one cypress folder.
Custom commands go in the support/commands/index.ts
file. Please put all these commands directly in that file.
Also, please do not put any other files in the commands directory as only the index file is copied by our testing pipeline.
The testrunner automatically resets the SCM-Manager configuration before and logs out the user after each test
The testrunner uses human-readable-ids to generate semi-randomized identifiers and texts. You can use the library for the same purpose as well. It is already included in the dependencies, you don't have to install it yourself.
Development
To release a new version of the integration-test-runner
:
- First update the version in
package.json
- Then add an entry to the
CHANGELOG.md
- Only then run
yarn publish
(This will automatically run thebuild
step)
