| Running PouchDB Tests |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| The PouchDB test suite expects an instance of CouchDB running in [Admin Party](http://guide.couchdb.org/draft/security.html#party) on http://127.0.0.1:5984, you can configure this by sending the `COUCH_HOST` env var. |
| |
| * PouchDB has been primarily developed on Linux and OSX, if you are using Windows then these instructions will have problems, we would love your help fixing them though. |
| |
| ### Node Tests |
| |
| Given that you have [installed a CouchDB server](#installing-a-couchdb-server). |
| |
| Run all tests with: |
| |
| $ npm test |
| |
| ### Browser Tests |
| |
| Browser tests can be run automatically with: |
| |
| $ CLIENT=selenium:firefox npm test |
| |
| or you can run: |
| |
| $ npm run dev |
| |
| and open [http://127.0.0.1:8000/tests/test.html](http://127.0.0.1:8000/tests/test.html) in your browser of choice. The performance tests are located @ [http://localhost:8000/tests/performance/test.html](http://localhost:8000/tests/performance/test.html). |
| |
| ### Test Options |
| |
| #### Subset of tests: |
| |
| $ GREP=test.replication.js npm test |
| |
| or append `?grep=test.replication.js` if you opened the tests in a browser manually. |
| |
| #### Test Coverage |
| |
| $ COVERAGE=1 npm test |
| |
| #### Test alternative server |
| |
| $ COUCH_HOST=http://user:pass@myname.host.com npm run dev |
| |
| or |
| |
| $ COUCH_HOST=http://user:pass@myname.host.com npm test |
| |
| #### Test with ES5 shims |
| |
| Some older browsers require [es5 shims](https://github.com/es-shims/es5-shim). Enable them with: |
| |
| $ ES5_SHIM=true npm run dev |
| |
| or e.g.: |
| |
| $ ES5_SHIM=true CLIENT=selenium:phantomjs npm test |
| |
| or you can append it as `?es5shim=true` if you manually opened a browser window. |
| |
| #### Run the map/reduce tests |
| |
| The map/reduce tests are done separately from the normal integration tests, because |
| they take a long time. They'll also cause a ton of popups in Safari due to exceeding |
| the 5MB limit. |
| |
| $ TYPE=mapreduce npm test |
| |
| ### Cordova tests |
| |
| You may need to install `ant` in order for the Android tests to run (e.g. `brew install ant`). You'll also need the Android SDK, and to make sure your `$ANDROID_HOME` is set. |
| |
| Run the tests against an iOS simulator: |
| |
| $ CLIENT=ios npm run cordova |
| |
| Run the tests against a connected Android device, using the given COUCH_HOST |
| |
| $ CLIENT=android DEVICE=true COUCH_HOST=http://example.com:5984 |
| |
| Run the tests against the FirefoxOS simulator: |
| |
| $ CLIENT=firefoxos npm run cordova |
| |
| Run the tests against a BlackBerry 10 device: |
| |
| $ CLIENT=blackberry10 DEVICE=true npm run cordova |
| |
| Use a custom Couch host: |
| |
| $ COUCH_HOST=http://myurl:5984 npm run cordova |
| |
| Grep some tests: |
| |
| $ GREP=basics npm run cordova |
| |
| Test against the [SQLite Plugin](https://github.com/brodysoft/Cordova-SQLitePlugin): |
| |
| $ SQLITE_PLUGIN=true ADAPTERS=websql npm run cordova |
| |
| **Notes:** |
| |
| * `CLIENT=ios` will run on iOS, default is `CLIENT=android` |
| * `DEVICE=true` will run on a device connected via USB, else on an emulator (default is the emulator) |
| * `SQLITE_PLUGIN=true` will install and use the [SQLite Plugin](https://github.com/brodysoft/Cordova-SQLitePlugin). |
| * `ADAPTERS=websql` should be used if you want to skip using IndexedDB on Android 4.4+ or if you want to force the SQLite Plugin. |
| * `COUCH_HOST` should be the full URL; you can only omit this is in the Android emulator due to the magic `10.0.2.2` route to `localhost`. |
| * `ES5_SHIM=true` should be used on devices that don't support ES5 (e.g. Android 2.x). |
| |
| **WEINRE debugging:** |
| |
| You can also debug with Weinre by doing: |
| |
| $ npm install -g weinre |
| $ weinre --boundHost=0.0.0.0 |
| |
| Then run the tests with: |
| |
| $ WEINRE_HOST=http://route.to.my.weinre:8080 npm run cordova |
| |
| ### Testing against PouchDB server |
| |
| [pouchdb-server](https://github.com/nick-thompson/pouchdb-server) is a project that uses [express-pouchdb](https://github.com/nick-thompson/express-pouchdb) to run a CouchDB-compliant server backed by PouchDB. |
| |
| To test the latest and greatest version of pouchdb-server, you can do e.g.: |
| |
| SERVER=pouchdb-server npm test |
| SERVER=pouchdb-server CLIENT=selenium:firefox npm test |
| |
| If you would like to modify pouchdb-server while testing, then git clone the express-pouchdb and pouchdb-server projects, `npm link` them all together, and then run: |
| |
| node /path/to/pouchdb-server/bin/pouchdb-server -p 6984 |
| |
| Then in the PouchDB project, run: |
| |
| COUCH_HOST=http://localhost:6984 npm run dev |
| |
| This works because `npm run dev` does not start up the pouchdb-server itself (only `npm test` does). |
| |
| ### Testing the in-memory adapter |
| |
| `pouchdb-server` uses the `--in-memory` flag to use MemDOWN. To enable this, set |
| |
| SERVER_ADAPTER=memory |
| |
| Whereas on the client this is configured using `PouchDB.defaults()`, so you can enable it like so: |
| |
| LEVEL_ADAPTER=memdown |
| |
| The value is a comma-separated list of key values, where the key-values are separated by colons. |
| |
| Some Level adapters also require a standard database name prefix (e.g. `riak://` or `mysql://`), which you can specify like so: |
| |
| LEVEL_PREFIX=riak://localhost:8087/ |
| |
| ### Testing Pouch in a shell |
| |
| For quick debugging, you can run an interactive Node shell with the `PouchDB` variable already available: |
| |
| npm run shell |
| |
| ### Performance tests |
| |
| PERF=1 npm test |
| |
| To run the performance test suite in node.js or the automated browser runner. |
| |
| ### Performance tests in the browser |
| |
| You can specify a particular version of PouchDB or a particular adapter by doing e.g.: |
| |
| http://localhost:8000/tests/performance/test.html?src=http://site.com/path/to/pouchdb.js |
| http://localhost:8000/tests/performance/test.html?adapter=websql |
| http://localhost:8000/tests/performance/test.html?adapter=idb&src=//site.com/pouchdb.js |
| |
| All of the browser plugin adapters (i.e. `idb-alt`, `memory`, and `localstorage`) are also available this way. |
| |
| You can also specify particular tests by using `grep=`, e.g.: |
| |
| http://127.0.0.1:8000/tests/performance/test.html?grep=basics |
| http://127.0.0.1:8000/tests/performance/test.html?grep=basic-inserts |
| |
| ### Ad-hoc tests |
| |
| There's a WebSQL storage quota test available in: |
| |
| http://127.0.0.1:8000/tests/stress/websql_storage_limit.html |
| |
| Run `npm run dev`, then open it in Safari or iOS. |
| |
| Adapter plugins and adapter order |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| We are currently building three adapters-as-plugins: `memory`, `localstorage`, and `idb-alt`. All are based on the [LevelDOWN API](https://github.com/rvagg/abstract-leveldown): |
| |
| * `memory`: based on [MemDOWN](https://github.com/rvagg/memdown) |
| * `localstorage`: based on [localstorage-down](https://github.com/no9/localstorage-down) |
| * `idb-alt`: based on [level-js](https://github.com/maxogden/level.js), will probably replace `idb.js` someday |
| |
| These adapters are built and included in the `dist/` folder as e.g. `pouchdb.memory.js`. Including these scripts after `pouchdb.js` will load the adapters, placing them in the `PouchDB.preferredAdapters` list after `idb` and `websql` by default. |
| |
| <script src="pouchdb.js"></script> |
| <script>console.log(PouchDB.preferredAdapters); // ['idb', 'websql']</script> |
| <script src="pouchdb.memory.js"></script> |
| <script>console.log(PouchDB.preferredAdapters); // ['idb', 'websql', 'memory']</script> |
| |
| To test these adapters, you can run e.g. |
| |
| ADAPTERS=memory CLIENT=selenium:firefox npm run test |
| |
| Or append them as query params in the browser: |
| |
| http://localhost:8000/tests/test.html?adapters=memory |
| |
| The `adapters` list is a comma-separated list that will be used for `PouchDB.preferredAdapters`. So e.g. if you want to test `websql` in Chrome, you can do: |
| |
| http://localhost:8000/tests/test.html?adapters=websql |
| |
| Or even make the `preferredAdapters` list any crazy thing you want: |
| |
| # loads websql, then memory, then idb, then localstorage |
| http://localhost:8000/tests/test.html?adapters=websql,memory,idb,localstorage |
| |
| Keep in mind that `preferredAdapters` only applies to non-http, non-https adapters. |
| |
| ### Installing a CouchDB server |
| |
| Regular install |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| See the [official CouchDB documentation](http://docs.couchdb.org/en/1.6.1/install/index.html) for a guide on how to install CouchDB. |
| |
| Docker install |
| ----------------------------- |
| |
| Don't have a CouchDB installed on your machine? Don't want one? Let's use [docker](https://www.docker.com/) |
| and [fig](http://www.fig.sh/). |
| |
| 1. [Install Docker](https://docs.docker.com/installation/#installation) |
| 2. [Install Fig](http://www.fig.sh/install.html) |
| 3. Run `fig -f tests/misc/fig.yml up -d` from PouchDB project root folder to download and run a CouchDB server in docker |
| 4. Check with `fig -f tests/misc/fig.yml ps` that `couchdb` is running and listen on `0.0.0.0:15984` |
| 5. Run the test suite with: `COUCH_HOST=http://127.0.0.1:15984 npm test` |
| |
| Now everytime you want to run the test suite, you just need to: |
| $ fig -f tests/misc/fig.yml start |
