Prepare PostgreSQL user so PeerTube can delete/create the test databases:
-```
+```bash
$ sudo -u postgres createuser you_username --createdb --superuser
```
Prepare databases:
-```
+```bash
$ npm run clean:server:test
```
Build PeerTube:
-```
+```bash
$ npm run build
```
Run docker containers needed by some test files:
-```
+```bash
$ sudo docker run -p 9444:9000 chocobozzz/s3-ninja
$ sudo docker run -p 10389:10389 chocobozzz/docker-test-openldap
```
+Ensure you also have these commands:
+
+```
+$ exiftool --help
+```
+
### Test
To run all test suites:
-```
+```bash
$ npm run test # See scripts/test.sh to run a particular suite
```
-To run a particular test file:
+Most of tests can be run using:
+
+```bash
+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
+```
+
+`server/tests/api/activitypub` tests will need different options:
```
-TS_NODE_TRANSPILE_ONLY=true mocha -- --timeout 30000 --exit -r ts-node/register -r tsconfig-paths/register --bail server/tests/api/videos/video-transcoder.ts
+TS_NODE_FILES=true mocha -- --timeout 30000 --exit -r ts-node/register -r tsconfig-paths/register --bail server/tests/api/activitypub/security.ts
```
### Configuration
Some env variables can be defined to disable/enable some tests:
- * `DISABLE_HTTP_IMPORT_TESTS`: disable import tests (because of youtube that could rate limit your IP)
- * `ENABLE_OBJECT_STORAGE_TESTS=true`: enable object storage tests (needs a docker container first)
+ * `DISABLE_HTTP_IMPORT_TESTS=true`: disable import tests (because of youtube that could rate limit your IP)
+ * `ENABLE_OBJECT_STORAGE_TESTS=true`: enable object storage tests (needs `chocobozzz/s3-ninja` container first)
+
+
+### Debug server logs
+
+While testing, you might want to display a server's logs to understand why they failed:
+
+```bash
+NODE_APP_INSTANCE=1 NODE_ENV=test npm run parse-log -- --level debug | less +GF
+```
## Client E2E tests
To run tests on local web browsers (comment web browsers you don't have in `client/e2e/wdio.local.conf.ts`):
-```
+```bash
$ npm run e2e:local
```
To run tests on browser stack:
-```
+```bash
$ BROWSERSTACK_USER=your_user BROWSERSTACK_KEY=your_key npm run e2e:browserstack
```
### Add E2E tests
-To add E2E tests and quickly run tests using a local Chrome, first create a test instance:
-
-```
-$ npm run clean:server:test && NODE_APP_INSTANCE=1 NODE_ENV=test npm start
-```
-
-Then, just run your suite using:
+To add E2E tests and quickly run tests using a local Chrome:
-```
+```bash
$ cd client/e2e
$ ../node_modules/.bin/wdio wdio.local-test.conf.ts # you can also add --mochaOpts.grep to only run tests you want
```
