- rather than just exposing any, anything and string matching, expose more specific matchers.
- this was triggered by `any(Date)` not working for dates in our API
- it seems poor to match `any(String)` for something we want to be a well formatted date
- establishes the pattern of using our defined matchers instead of requiring any/anything from jest
refs: https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/158
- Working up to having these be the defacto "reference" tests
- Changing this allows for the fact that there will be a getContentAPIAgent, and probably more in future
- Abstracting away the path to a single location will make updating API paths easier later too

We now have @tryghost/jest-snapshot - a suite of utilities for using snapshots with mocha, should, etc
The @tryghost/express-test lib also uses it to provide chained snapshot assertions
This library was created because all the existing implementations I could find, including the in use @ethanresnick/chai-jest-snapshot
didn't properly support property matching. @ethanresnick/chai-jest-snapshot supposedly supported it, but the implementation was incorrect
and frequently lead to false test passes.
This library also has (after some back and forth) path resolution so that snapshots can live in a local __snapshots__ folder

- in the referenced commit, I made a util to speed up resetting the DB
for SQLite by copying the database file
- I inadvertently removed an optimization we had before - where we
truncate the tables and insert the fixtures instead of dropping the
entire database
- this would be missing on MySQL tests
- this seems to have a big difference so this commit re-adds the
optimization in
The idea here is to keep the concept of _what_ we're asserting (that an email was sent)
away from the implementation of how we check that assertion
This means that tests can have a consistent api like .sentEmail(), and if we change how that function works,
we only have to update the assertion function in the MockManager
Much more cleanup to come behind the scenes, but the aim is to make the tests as clean as possible
- encapsulated concerns within individual objects
- this will allow us to refactor these into classes or move them around later
- also makes it clearer how methods like restore relate to other methods
- e.g mocks.restore() restores mocks, whilst fixtureManager.restore() restores the database
- Ensure that the DB is always reset between tests
- We assume that the DB will be torn down and rebuilt between tests
- Without this, previous tests clobber the current tests, and it's not possible to tell when running files in isolation
which makes developing really tricky

- Our Casper fixture was several years out of date.
- I'd already updated the ghost-api to point to the latest API version, which was the main difference
- This makes sure the full fixture is up to date and correct, and therefore that we're truly testing if Ghost right now works
- It also adds instructions for how to update it in future
GOTCHA: the mock-express-style tests are failing if the API difference between test-theme and casper are different
- I've tried to look into why this is - it's something to do with the overridden route settings not working properly if the API version changes
- Given that we may not keep this style of testing AND we are definitely not keeping API versions, I'm ignoreing this for now
- To get around it, I'm setting both themes to be v4 API, so that Casper is exactly as in main
refs: https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/193
- The Casper fixture in the codebase is copied to a tmp folder structure every single time we start Ghost in an e2e test
- We shouldn't keep files here that don't actually get used!
- The files I'm removing are src files, used for building, but we already have the built files
refs: https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/168
- Upgraded the remaining themes to be pinned to the canary API
- This required one minor fix because the edit URL has changed for authors in v4/canary
- I also ripped out everywhere that the theme ghost-api version was being pinned to canary, as this was unreliable and only happening in a few places
- It's also going to be unnecessary code as soon as we finish changing to only having one API version
refs: https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/168
- The fixture represented Casper at Ghost version 1.0 which pre-dated the introduction of the posts_per_page config in package.json
- When Casper was upgraded to 2.0 in the fixtures, the lack of pagination broke the e2e tests for pagination
- This change introduces proper code to stub and override posts_per_page rather than keeping and using the old casper-1.4 fixture
- It also required me to remove a handful of CSS-based checks which are no longer true in the new theme version, but also didn't really add anything to the tests
refs: https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/168
- Having large theme fixtures makes tests run slower, so we're working to reduce them
- This fixture was a full copy of a very old version of Casper, but all we needed was a handful of files so that the tests can run
- This theme is also used for testing members, not just price data so I've renamed it for clarity
- The remaining files is the bare minimum we need to test these features
refs: https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/168
- This file was pinning various tests to v3
We're going to be dropping the idea of having multiple versions of the API in each Ghost version.
Because this has not achieved the goal of making it easier to make breaking changes, but it has
created an ordinate amount of technical debt and maintenance overhead.
As we know this is going away in the next major, there is no benefit to us constantly running tests
that check if those versions still work, especially given how long they take.
Instead we're starting work to ensure that all of our test work on canary, and that canary has
excellent test coverage so that we can be sure that our one API version works really well and that
any changes, no matter how subtle are deliberate, tracked and understood.

We need a way to signal whether or not a Tier is active or archived, and
we'll be using the active flag in the same way we do for Offers.
Since we now have 2 products by default for all ghost sites, free and default paid, the usage of default product which so far was using first product needs to be updated to use the first paid product.
- updates default product usage to use first paid tier
- updates tests

Instead of loading all themes for each set of tests in the e2e suite, only load the frontend at all for frontend tests, and only load themes for the theme tests.
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/158
- To make the development quicker the copy-paste code was left in the codebase but gave immediate smell. Removed it to stop bothering me every time I look at the related code :)
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/129
- The "Origin" header is require in Admin API requests so it makes sense to bake it into a default request made by most tests. Reduces unnecesary fluf around test request setup and removes a "config" dependency in each tests suite using the "e2e framework"
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/158
- Allows for much smaller amount of code to configure a test to work with chai-jest-snapshots. They now work automatically for all regression tests and could be enabled for other suites by adding the "--require=./test/utils/snapshots.js" parameter in respective test:* package script
- Regenerated snapshot for authentication test as the naming structure
changed a little with the snapshot metadata being taken on a higher
level in the test (uses the suite name instead of a specific describe it
used to be called from)
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/158
- Moving common mocking/stubbing/spying logic into an outside utils module allows test suites to keep agnostic towards which framework powers mocking etc. Should also substitute email service stubbing used in multiple places
- Bonus, got rid of should dependency, which is deprecated
no issue
- The response from the server might not always contain an array with errors (for example when there's a generic 503 error). This changes prevents tests from hanging and adds at least some relevant output
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/129
- Adds content folder creation based on fixtures for e2e tests using the e2e framework
- Mostly a copy-paste for now from existing e2e utils with some simplifications, so we can "complicate things" later only if needed
refs 24505db918
- The code is heavily borrowed from the referenced commit by @ErisDS. It starts a fresh abstraction layer for all e2e tests to use, provides simle interface for request agent initialization and state management (read the e2e-framework top file description for more)
- Main methods the framework exposes are:
- getAgent - to initialize request agent with a fresh Ghost instance
- initFixtures - to initializer a fresh db state
- resetDb - cleans up the db state if there were state manipulations during the test suite run (POST, PUT requests or non-default fixtures)
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/129
- Having a fresh module should allow building new testing utility concepts from the ground up without being tied by the mystery baggage of the legacy localUtils/testUtils
- The outline of the concepts the framework will be handling is in the commont on the top of the e2e-framework file
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/152
- Being able to set up test suites without blocking a port opens a door to new ways to run tests - for example this has been one of the blockers for running mocha tests in parallel
- Additional benefit is lighter statrup, which reducec the test execution time slightly. Doesn't seem like much but these things stack up!
no issue
- we've seen some instances of SQLite saying "database disk image is malformed"
- I think this happens because we copy the file whilst we are still connected to
the old DB
- this commit destroys the connection before copying the clean file to the live
DB file
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/136
- we nuke and reinitialize the DB many times between tests
- this forms a good portion of the time taken and we shouldn't be spending
so much time on just resetting the DB back to a known state
- this commit switches out the knex-migrator reset + init calls for SQLite to
a function which keeps a clean copy of the DB and copies the file back
when we "reset"
- for MySQL, existing functionality is kept
- this massively speeds up tests because it saves ~700ms+ for every reset
- whilst this change seems to work, it's just the start so there's a
lot more refactoring needed. this change is currently gated to CI until
it's deemed safe/sane enough to run on local machines without blowing
up
refs: TryGhost/Toolbox#147
* Replaces all references to isIgnitionError with isGhostError
* Switches use of GhostError to InternalServerError - as GhostError is no longer public
There are places where InternalServerError is not the valid error, and new errors should be added to the @tryghost/errors package to ensure that we can use semantically correct errors in those cases.
https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/140
- Allows to fully start an instance with a custom routes.yaml file without a need to do workarounds - e.g. we used to call an internal Admin API from a regression test suite, which is not a good practice
- Providing "routesFilePath" to startGhost method copies that file to the default settings location and start the instance with that configuration. No need to do API calls or check if the routing service "isFinished"
no issue
- this commit adds a counter for the number of boots we do in tests
- which therefore allows us to calculate the average boot time we
experience
- only useful for debugging test performance
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/135
- This optimization is expected to play a role in more consistent "backend-only" boot where the previous test state might have left over a different theme version which might cause in unwanted URL Services reainitializations.
- What has been happening here is the themes.test.js suite was uploading a theme with a v4 api and when the users api test suite loaded up it switched back to a default v2 theme, which caused routing reinitialization
- The root problem here is the themese suite is leaving a mess behind so a "restartModeGhostStart" is not really possible anymore - this should be cleaned up separately
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/135
- The global default should stay the same as it used to be and we can introduce an override for "withFrontend:false" on casa-by-case or area-by-area bases
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/135
- When running e2e-API test in most cases there's no need to boot Ghost instance with full frontend. This should improve the boot time which should reflect on the speed of running test suites
- The tests where the "forceStart" and "withFrontend" are used together indicate that there's still some work to do to fully separate frontend/backend boot line. The force start is also unnecessary, but was needed to reinitialize all services properly - should be investigated!
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/135
- These fixture had to be updated due to hardcoded ids introduced in the fixtures.json for test
- This allows to boot up a Ghost instance without recalculating urls for most common database states
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Toolbox/issues/135
- These fixtures needs id's to be able to form a stable urls and resources cache that would be used across all e2e tests when booting without a frontend
- These two things are meant to improve performance at the cost of reliability.
- Perfect for testing, however I think they make a minimal impact on modern SSDs :(
- Still worth a shot to see if it helps with CI
