   1 # Tests

   3 ## Preparation
   4
   5 Prepare PostgreSQL user so PeerTube can delete/create the test databases:
   6
   7 ```bash
   8 $ sudo -u postgres createuser you_username --createdb --superuser
   9 ```
  10
  11 Prepare databases:
  12
  13 ```bash
  14 $ npm run clean:server:test
  15 ```
  16
  17 Build PeerTube:
  18
  19 ```bash
  20 $ npm run build
  21 ```
  22
  23 ## Server tests
  24
  25 ### Dependencies
  26
  27 Run docker containers needed by some test files:
  28
  29 ```bash
  30 $ sudo docker run -p 9444:9000 chocobozzz/s3-ninja
  31 $ sudo docker run -p 10389:10389 chocobozzz/docker-test-openldap
  32 ```
  33
  34 Ensure you also have these commands:
  35
  36 ```bash
  37 $ exiftool --help
  38 $ parallel --help
  39 ```
  40
  41 Otherwise, install the packages. On Debian-based systems (like Debian, Ubuntu or Mint):
  42 ```bash
  43 $ sudo apt-get install parallel libimage-exiftool-perl
  44 ```
  45
  46 ### Test
  47
  48 To run all test suites:
  49
  50 ```bash
  51 $ npm run test # See scripts/test.sh to run a particular suite
  52 ```
  53
  54 Most of tests can be run using:
  55
  56 ```bash
  57 TS_NODE_TRANSPILE_ONLY=true npm run mocha -- --timeout 30000 --exit -r ts-node/register -r tsconfig-paths/register --bail server/tests/api/videos/video-transcoder.ts
  58 ```
  59
  60 `server/tests/api/activitypub` tests will need different options:
  61
  62 ```
  63 TS_NODE_FILES=true mocha -- --timeout 30000 --exit -r ts-node/register -r tsconfig-paths/register --bail server/tests/api/activitypub/security.ts
  64 ```
  65
  66 ### Configuration
  67
  68 Some env variables can be defined to disable/enable some tests:
  69
  70  * `DISABLE_HTTP_IMPORT_TESTS=true`: disable import tests (because of youtube that could rate limit your IP)
  71  * `ENABLE_OBJECT_STORAGE_TESTS=true`: enable object storage tests (needs `chocobozzz/s3-ninja` container first)
  72
  73
  74 ### Debug server logs
  75
  76 While testing, you might want to display a server's logs to understand why they failed:
  77
  78 ```bash
  79 NODE_APP_INSTANCE=1 NODE_ENV=test npm run parse-log -- --level debug | less +GF
  80 ```
  81
  82
  83 ## Client E2E tests
  84
  85 ### Local tests
  86
  87 To run tests on local web browsers (comment web browsers you don't have in `client/e2e/wdio.local.conf.ts`):
  88
  89 ```bash
  90 $ npm run e2e:local
  91 ```
  92
  93 ### Browserstack tests
  94
  95 To run tests on browser stack:
  96
  97 ```bash
  98 $ BROWSERSTACK_USER=your_user BROWSERSTACK_KEY=your_key npm run e2e:browserstack
  99 ```
 100
 101 ### Add E2E tests
 102
 103 To add E2E tests and quickly run tests using a local Chrome:
 104
 105 ```bash
 106 $ cd client/e2e
 107 $ ../node_modules/.bin/wdio wdio.local-test.conf.ts # you can also add --mochaOpts.grep to only run tests you want
 108 ```
