unit-testing	Unit Testing

All tests are split in three folders:

• test/unit - Tests that cover functions that transform data in an non-trivial way. These tests simply require() a few files and run code in there, so they are very fast.
• test/functional - Tests that launch a verdaccio instance and perform a series of requests to it over http. They are slower than unit tests.
• test/integration - Tests that launch a verdaccio instance and do requests to it using npm. They are really slow and can hit a real npm registry. unmaintained test

Unit and functional tests are executed automatically by running npm test from the project's root directory. Integration tests are supposed to be executed manually from time to time.

We use jest for all test.

The npm Script

To run the test script you can use either npm or yarn.

yarn run test

That will trigger only two first groups of test, unit and functional.

Using test/unit

The following is just an example how a unit test should looks like. Basically follow the jest standard.

Try to describe what exactly does the unit test in a single sentence in the header of the test section.

const verdaccio = require('../../src/api/index');
const config = require('./partials/config');

describe('basic system test', () => {

  beforeAll(function(done) {
    // something important
  });

  afterAll((done) => {
    // undo something important
  });

  test('server should respond on /', done => {
    // your test
    done();
  });
});

Using test/functional

Funtional testing in verdaccio has a bit more of complextity that needs a deep explanation in order to success in your experience.

All starts in the index.js file. Let's dive in into it.

// we create 3 server instances
 const config1 = new VerdaccioConfig(
    './store/test-storage',
    './store/config-1.yaml',
    'http://localhost:55551/');
  const config2 = new VerdaccioConfig(
      './store/test-storage2',
      './store/config-2.yaml',
      'http://localhost:55552/');
  const config3 = new VerdaccioConfig(
        './store/test-storage3',
        './store/config-3.yaml',
        'http://localhost:55553/');
  const server1: IServerBridge = new Server(config1.domainPath);
  const server2: IServerBridge = new Server(config2.domainPath);
  const server3: IServerBridge = new Server(config3.domainPath);
  const process1: IServerProcess = new VerdaccioProcess(config1, server1, SILENCE_LOG);
  const process2: IServerProcess = new VerdaccioProcess(config2, server2, SILENCE_LOG);
  const process3: IServerProcess = new VerdaccioProcess(config3, server3, SILENCE_LOG);
  const express: any = new ExpressServer();
  ...

    // we check whether all instances has been started, since run in independent processes
    beforeAll((done) => {
      Promise.all([
        process1.init(),
        process2.init(),
        process3.init()]).then((forks) => {
          _.map(forks, (fork) => {
            processRunning.push(fork[0]);
          });
          express.start(EXPRESS_PORT).then((app) =>{
            done();
          }, (err) => {
            done(err);
          });
      }).catch((error) => {
        done(error);
      });
    });

    // after finish all, we ensure are been stoped
    afterAll(() => {
      _.map(processRunning, (fork) => {
        fork.stop();
      });
      express.server.close();
    });

Usage

Here we are gonna describe how it looks like an usual functional test, check inline for more detail information.

The lib/server.js

The server class is just a wrapper that simulates a npm client and provides a simple API for the funtional test.

As we mention in the previous section, we are creating 3 process servers that are accessible in each process as server1, server2 and ``server3`.

Using such reference you will be able to send request to any of the 3 instance running.

<br />export default function(server) {
  // we recieve any server instance via arguments
  test('add tag - 404', () => {
    // we interact with the server instance.
    return server.addTag('testpkg-tag', 'tagtagtag', '0.0.1').status(404).body_error(/no such package/);
  });
});

Test/integration

These section never has been used, but we are looking for help to make it run properly. All new ideas are very welcome.
