__Authelia__ is a single component in interaction with many others in a complete ecosystem. Consequently, testing the
|
|
features is not as easy as we might think. In order to solve this problem, Authelia came up with the concept of suite
|
|
which is a kind of virtual environment for Authelia and a set of tests. A suite can setup components such as NGINX,
|
|
Redis or MariaDB in which __Authelia__ can run and be tested.
|
|
|
|
This abstraction allows to prepare an environment for manual testing during development and also to craft and run
|
|
integration tests efficiently.
|
|
|
|
## Start a suite
|
|
|
|
Starting a suite called *Standalone* is done with the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
authelia-scripts suites setup Standalone
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command deploys the environment of the suite.
|
|
|
|
## Run tests of a suite
|
|
|
|
### Run tests of running suite
|
|
|
|
If a suite is already running, you can simply type the test command that will run the test related to the currently
|
|
running suite:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
authelia-scripts suites test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Run tests of non-running suite
|
|
|
|
However, if no suite is running yet and you just want to run the tests of a specific suite like *HighAvailability*, you
|
|
can do so with the next command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
authelia-scripts suites test HighAvailability
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Run all tests of all suites
|
|
|
|
Running all tests is easy. Make sure that no suite is already running and run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
authelia-scripts suites test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Run tests in headless mode
|
|
|
|
As you might have noticed, the tests are run using chromedriver and selenium. It means that the tests open an instance
|
|
of Chrome that might interfere with your other activities. In order to run the tests in headless mode to avoid the
|
|
interference, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
authelia-scripts suites test --headless
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Create a suite
|
|
|
|
Creating a suite is as easy. Let's take the example of the __Standalone__ suite:
|
|
|
|
* __suite_standalone.go__ - It defines the setup and teardown phases. It likely uses docker-compose to setup the
|
|
ecosystem. This file also defines the timeouts.
|
|
* __suite_standalone_test.go__ - It defines the set of tests to run against the suite.
|
|
* __Standalone__ directory - It contains resources required by the suite and likely mounted in the containers.
|
|
|
|
A suite can also be much more complex like setting up a complete Kubernetes ecosystem. You can check the Kubernetes
|
|
suite as example.
