Tests

Installing and running tests locally

Note: If you are unable to get tests running locally, try enabling [TravisCI] for your repository

The tests for this project are segregated into unit tests and integration tests. You can run each test suite with the following commands (running both at the same time is currently not supported).

grunt test:unit
grunt test:integration

The browser tests require phantomjs to be installed.

To set up the testing environment:

You will need access to a working InterMine testmine with the loadsadata dataset loaded and the quick-search enabled.

  1. Clone the InterMine repo https://github.com/intermine/intermine. Make sure you have all the required dependencies installed.
  2. Once everything's installed, you can run a script to set up the TestMine. In a terminal, run:
cd intermine          #change into the cloned directory.
./testmodel/setup.sh  # initialise InterMine TestMine.

See our testmodel docs for more details.

If this is not located at http://localhost:8080/intermine-demo as expected, you can pass the location in an environment variable (TESTMODEL_URL).

TravisCI

If you enable TravisCI for your repo, tests will run automatically when you push code to GitHub. This might be easier!

Mock Responses

Adding new mocks

In order to create a mock bundle pertaining to a test, import mock.coffee into the test file. Add the setupRecorder function to the topmost level after which mocks are to be run. Preferrably, it is just after the describe in mocha test. Also add the stopRecorder function in the @afterAll hook of the corresponding scope, passing the bundle name as the parameter (should have .json extension). Run the test suite. Make sure that test is as well as the testmine is running. To ensure this, do not add any segregation details to the test.

(OPTIONAL) In the mocha-opts.json, add "grep": "unique_test". This runs only the "unique_test", reducing the time required to run the test which is setting up the mock.

Setting up mocks

In order to setup mock responses in a test, add the setupBundle function to the scope where setupRecorder was added. Pass the bundle name as the first parameter. Run the test after closing the testmine instance, to ensure that the mocks are being setup appropriately.
