To run tests in the test suite you have two options. You may go the easy way and just run the test suite in docker. But for some tasks you could also need to install the test suite natively, which requires a little more setup since PHP and some dependencies need to be installed.

Both ways to run tests with the test suites are described here.

Testing with test suite in docker

Let's see what is available. Invoke the following command from within the root of the oCIS repository.

make -C tests/acceptance/docker help

Basically we have two sources for feature tests and test suites:

At the moment both can be applied to oCIS since the api of oCIS is designed to be compatible with ownCloud.

Since we have to offer a migration path to existing users of ownCloud, you can use your existing ownCloud as the storage backend for oCIS. As another storage backend we offer oCIS native storage, also called "oCIS". This stores files directly on disk. Which storage backend is used is also reflected in the tests, there are always different tests for oCIS storage and ownCloud storage.

You can invoke two types of test suite runs:

  • run a full test suite, which consists of multiple feature tests
  • run a single feature or single scenario in a feature

Run full test suite

The names of the full test suite make targets have the same naming as in the CI pipeline.

For example make -C tests/acceptance/docker localApiTests-apiAccountsHashDifficulty-ocis runs the same tests as the localApiTests-apiAccountsHashDifficulty-ocis CI pipeline, which runs the oCIS test suite "apiAccountsHashDifficulty" against an oCIS with oCIS storage.

For example make -C tests/acceptance/docker Core-API-Tests-owncloud-storage-3runs the same tests as the Core-API-Tests-owncloud-storage-3 CI pipeline, which runs the third (out of ten) ownCloud test suite against an oCIS with owncloud storage.

Run single feature test

The single feature tests can also be run against the different storage backends. Therefore, multiple make targets with the schema test--feature- exist. To select a single feature you have to add an additional BEHAT_FEATURE=... parameter when invoking the make command:

make -C tests/acceptance/docker test-ocis-feature-ocis-storage BEHAT_FEATURE='tests/acceptance/features/apiAccountsHashDifficulty/addUser.feature'

This must be pointing to a valid feature definition.

To run a single scenario in a feature, then mention the line number of the scenario:

make -C tests/acceptance/docker test-ocis-feature-ocis-storage BEHAT_FEATURE='tests/acceptance/features/apiAccountsHashDifficulty/addUser.feature:20'

oCIS image to be tested (or: skip build and take existing image)

By default, the tests will be run against the docker image built from your current working state of the oCIS repository. For some purposes it might also be handy to use an oCIS image from Docker Hub. Therefore, you can provide the optional flag OCIS_IMAGE_TAG=... which must contain an available docker tag of the owncloud/ocis registry on Docker Hub (e.g. 'latest').

make -C tests/acceptance/docker localApiTests-apiAccountsHashDifficulty-ocis OCIS_IMAGE_TAG=latest

Test log output

While a test is running or when it is finished, you can attach to the logs generated by the tests.

make -C tests/acceptance/docker show-test-logs

{{< hint info >}} The log output is opened in less. You can navigate up and down with your cursors. By pressing "F" you can follow the latest line of the output. {{< /hint >}}

Cleanup

During testing we start a redis and oCIS docker container. These will not be stopped automatically. You can stop them with:

make -C tests/acceptance/docker clean

Testing with test suite natively installed

We have two sets of tests:

  • test-acceptance-from-core-api set was transferred from core repository The suite name of all tests transferred from the core starts with "core"

  • test-acceptance-api set was created for ocis. Mainly for testing spaces features

Run ocis

Create an up-to-date ocis binary by [building oCIS]({{< ref "build" >}})

To start ocis:

IDM_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin \
ocis/bin/ocis init --insecure true

OCIS_INSECURE=true PROXY_ENABLE_BASIC_AUTH=true \
ocis/bin/ocis server

PROXY_ENABLE_BASIC_AUTH will allow the acceptance tests to make requests against the provisioning api (and other endpoints) using basic auth.

Run the test-acceptance-from-core-api tests

make test-acceptance-from-core-api \
TEST_SERVER_URL=https://localhost:9200 \
TEST_WITH_GRAPH_API=true \
TEST_OCIS=true \

Note: This command only works for suites that start with core

Run the test-acceptance-api tests

make test-acceptance-api \
TEST_SERVER_URL=https://localhost:9200 \
TEST_WITH_GRAPH_API=true \
TEST_OCIS=true \

Make sure to adjust the settings TEST_SERVER_URL according to your environment.

To run a single feature add BEHAT_FEATURE=<feature file> example: BEHAT_SUITE=tests/acceptance/features/apiGraph/createUser.feature To run a single test add BEHAT_FEATURE=<file.feature:(line number)> example: BEHAT_SUITE=tests/acceptance/features/apiGraph/createUser.feature:12 To run a single suite add BEHAT_SUITE=<test suite> example: BEHAT_SUITE=apiGraph

To run tests with a different storage driver set STORAGE_DRIVER to the correct value. It can be set to OCIS or OWNCLOUD and uses OWNCLOUD as the default value.

use existing tests for BDD

As a lot of scenarios from test-acceptance-from-core-api are written for oC10, we can use those tests for Behaviour driven development in ocis. Every scenario that does not work in oCIS with "ocis" storage, is listed in tests/acceptance/expected-failures-API-on-OCIS-storage.md with a link to the related issue.

Those scenarios are run in the ordinary acceptance test pipeline in CI. The scenarios that fail are checked against the expected failures. If there are any differences then the CI pipeline fails.

The tests are not currently run in CI with the OWNCLOUD or EOS storage drivers, so there are no expected-failures files for those.

If you want to work on a specific issue

  1. locally run each of the tests marked with that issue in the expected failures file.

    E.g.:

    make test-acceptance-from-core-api \
    TEST_SERVER_URL=https://localhost:9200 \
    TEST_OCIS=true \
    TEST_WITH_GRAPH_API=true \
    STORAGE_DRIVER=OCIS \
    BEHAT_FEATURE='tests/acceptance/features/coreApiVersions/fileVersions.feature:147'
    
  2. the tests will fail, try to understand how and why they are failing

  3. fix the code

  4. go back to 1. and repeat till the tests are passing.

  5. remove those tests from the expected failures file

  6. make a PR that has the fixed code, and the relevant lines removed from the expected failures file.

Running tests for parallel deployment

Setup the parallel deployment environment

Instruction on setup is available here

Edit the .env file and uncomment this line:

COMPOSE_FILE=docker-compose.yml:testing/docker-compose-additions.yml

Start the docker stack with the following command:

docker-compose up -d

Getting the test helpers

All the test helpers are located in the core repo.

git clone https://github.com/owncloud/core.git

Run the acceptance tests

Run the acceptance tests with the following command from the root of the oCIS repository:

make test-paralleldeployment-api \
TEST_SERVER_URL="https://cloud.owncloud.test" \
TEST_OC10_URL="http://localhost:8080" \
TEST_PARALLEL_DEPLOYMENT=true \
TEST_OCIS=true \
TEST_WITH_LDAP=true \
PATH_TO_CORE="<path_to_core>" \
SKELETON_DIR="<path_to_core>/apps/testing/data/apiSkeleton"

Replace <path_to_core> with the actual path to the root directory of core repo that you have cloned earlier.

In order to run a single test, use the BEHAT_FEATURE environment variable.

make test-paralleldeployment-api \
... \
BEHAT_FEATURE="tests/parallelDeployAcceptance/features/apiShareManagement/acceptShares.feature"
