bedrock is a test runner for JavaScript projects. Its primary use is to test Javascript projects, but it also has a qunit wrapper. It can run manually (where the user navigates to the browser themselves), or automatically (where bedrock starts the browser and runs the tests automatically). Note, in order to run the tests automatically, the appropriate web-drivers need to be installed and available. For more information on setting up web-drivers, see here.
bedrock is available as an npm package. You can install it via the npm package @ephox/bedrock-server or from source
A global install will put the bedrock commands (e.g. bedrock-auto) automatically on your path.
$ npm install -g @ephox/bedrock-server
$ npm install -g .
A local install will not put the bedrock commands automatically on your path. After installing locally, you can access the commands via:
- adding
node_modules/.binto your path - using
npm run ${command}from the bedrock source directory
npm install @ephox/bedrock-server.
$ npm install .
Bedrock has two main modes: test and server. These are available through the commands bedrock-auto and bedrock.
Test mode allows the user to run tests in an automated fashion. Bedrock will spin up the browser itself (assuming the user has the right web-drivers on the path), establish a web-driver connection with this browser and close the browser once the tests have completed. Information on installing web-drivers can be found here.
BROWSER: chrome | firefox | safari | MicrosoftEdge | ie | phantomjs
e.g. run automated bedrock tests in chrome against test directory src/test/js/browser
bedrock-auto --browser chrome --testdir src/test/js/browser
Use bedrock-auto --help to see all arguments possible.
Server mode allows the user to host the tests on localhost:{port} where port is the first free port found between 8000 and 20000. It is the most commonly used mode, and therefore is the default bedrock executable.
bedrock --files src/test/js/browser/TwoTest.ts
Use bedrock --help to see all arguments possible.
You can run bedrock's tests by executing:
$ npm run test
This will not run test-samples-fail which will need to be run and verified manually. (All should fail)
If you just want to run the basic tests (not property-based), use $ npm run test-atomic. If you want to run only the property-based tests, use $ npm run test-props. If you want to run the sample tests use $ npm run test-samples-pass and $ npm run test-samples-fail.
The dockerfile is just to test the no-sandbox option for chrome-headless. We should build automated tests for it.
bedrock-auto accepts a --useSelenium flag to lift the browser driver burden into a docker container.
For local testing you can leverage docker and connect to a local standalone machine. Note that this uses a Linux GUI, so keep that in mind for cross-platform testing.
Start a selenium/standalone docker in your local environment:
docker run -d --net=host --shm-size="2g" selenium/standalone-chrome:latest.
You can start a remote selenium docker but bedrock does not play nice with this setup as it requires a server to be accessible to the webdriver
docker run -d -p 4444:4444 -p 7900:7900 --shm-size="2g" selenium/standalone-chrome:latest
- Make sure that your port 4444 and port 7900 are not in use when running
--net=host
It's to do with "escaping" CDATA end tokens ("]]>") in the output. If we pretty-print it, we get extraneous whitespace in the junit output rendered in Jenkins.
