wskdeploy Test Cases and Real World Applications

Test Cases

There are two types of test cases supported (1) unit test and (2) integration test. You can identify them by the first line of each test file _test.go.

Unit Tests

Unit tests are tagged with +build unit tag. For example, the test file deploymentreader_test.go under deployers/ contains unit test cases which is indicated with the unit tests tag on the top of the file:

// +build unit

package tests
...

How do I run unit tests?

In order to run any unit tests, you need to install the package Testify. After installing Testify, all the unit tests can be run from the main openwhisk-wskdeploy repository folder using the following command:

cd $GOPATH
go get -u github.com/stretchr/testify
cd openwhisk-wskdeploy/
$ go test -v ./... -tags unit

How do I run an individual test?

Above command will run all the unit tests from openwhisk-wskdeploy, in order to run a specific test, use:

go test -v <path-to-package-dir> -tags unit -run <test-name>

For example:

go test -v ./parsers/ -tags unit -run TestComposeActionsForWebActions

Where should I write unit tests?

Unit tests are co-located in the same directory as the package being tested (by Go convention). The test files uses the same basename as the file that contains the package, but with the added _test postfix to the base file name.

For example, the package deployers, which defines a DeploymentReader service, is declared in the file deploymentreader.go; its corresponding unit test file should be named deploymentreader_test.go under deployers/.

Also, the manifest and deployment YAML files used by unit tests should go under tests/dat.

Integration Tests

Integration tests are tagged with +build integration tag. For example, the test file zipaction_test.go contains integration test which is indicated with the integration tests tag on the top of the file:

// +build integration

package tests
...

How do I run integration tests?

In order to run any integration tests, you need to install the package Testify. After installing Testify, all the integration tests can be run from the main openwhisk-wskdeploy repository folder using the following command:

cd $GOPATH
go get -u github.com/stretchr/testify
cd openwhisk-wskdeploy/
$ go test -v ./... -tags integration

wskdeploy tests are located under tests/ folder.

How do I run an individual test?

Above command will run all the integration tests from openwhisk-wskdeploy, in order to run a specific test, use:

go test -v <path-to-package-dir> -tags integration -run <test-name>

For example:

go test -v ./tests/src/integration/zipaction/ -tags integration -run TestZipAction

Where should I write integration tests?

All integration test cases are created under the folder tests/src/integration. Every integration test has to have a test file _test.go along with manifest and/or deployment YAML file under the same directory.

For example, helloworld integration test:

ls -1 tests/src/integration/helloworld/
README.md
actions/
deployment.yaml
helloworld_test.go
manifest.yaml

Real World Applications

apps holds various real world applications which are being deployed using wskdeploy. This space gives an opportunity to wskdeploy consumers to integrate with wskdeploy and verify deployment/undeployment of their applications against a clean OpenWhisk instance. With this shared platform, application developer can work with wskdeploy developers to implement their requirements and usecases as they come in.

As an application developer, you can follow Contributing to Project
guide to add your application under apps or if you want to skip cloning the whole openwhisk-wskdeploy GitHub repo. There is a one time settings possible if you just want to clone your own application and submit pull requests:

# create a new directory where you want to clone your application
$ mkdir <my-wskdeploy-application>
$ cd <my-wskdeploy-application>
# initialize empty local repo
$ git init
# add the remote named origin using your fork
$ git remote add origin -f https://github.com/<application-developer>/openwhisk-wskdeploy.git
# the following git command is very important where we tell git we are checking out specifics
$ git config core.sparsecheckout true
$ echo "apps/*" >> .git/info/sparse-checkout
$ git pull origin master
