Effortlessly set up automated testing in WeWeb with this guide. Discover simple steps to streamline workflows and enhance quality assurance for web projects.
Automated testing in WeWeb makes sure your web projects run smoothly while meeting quality standards, all without needing manual checks. It helps with spotting bugs early, doing regression tests, and making your development workflow more efficient.
The guide covers key steps and tools for setting up automated tests in WeWeb, from configuring, writing test scripts, integrating with CI/CD pipelines, to best practices for test suite maintenance. Seasoned developer or maybe just starting with WeWeb, this resource is designed to simplify your testing process.
First things first, let's make sure we've got all the testing tools we need. Common ones are Jest for JavaScript testing and Cypress for end-to-end testing. WeWeb supports these and maybe a few others.
Create a special folder for your WeWeb project if you haven't already. Then, initialize it with:
npm init
Next, install the testing libraries:
npm install jest cypress --save-dev
Let's set up Jest by creating a jest.config.js
file:
module.exports = {
testEnvironment: 'node',
};
For Cypress, you'll need a cypress.json
file in the root of your project:
{
"baseUrl": "http://localhost:3000",
"integrationFolder": "cypress/integration",
"supportFile": "cypress/support/index.js"
}
Time to write some tests! For Jest, put your tests in a __tests__
directory:
// File: __tests__/example.test.js
test('should perform example test', () => {
expect(true).toBe(true);
});
For Cypress, your tests go in the cypress/integration
directory:
// File: cypress/integration/example_spec.js
describe('Example Test', function() {
it('Visits the WeWeb page and checks for text', function() {
cy.visit('/');
cy.contains('Welcome to WeWeb');
});
});
Add some scripts to your package.json
to run the tests:
"scripts": {
"test": "jest",
"cypress:open": "cypress open",
"cypress:run": "cypress run"
}
Now, let's run those tests! Open your terminal and type:
For Jest:
npm test
For Cypress:
npm run cypress:open
Or if you prefer headless mode:
npm run cypress:run
Finally, let's integrate this with a CI service like GitHub Actions or GitLab CI. Create a YAML file (e.g., .github/workflows/ci.yml
):
name: CI
on: [push, pull_request]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
strategy:
matrix:
node-version: [14, 16]
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Use Node.js ${{ matrix.node-version }}
uses: actions/setup-node@v1
with:
node-version: ${{ matrix.node-version }}
- run: npm install
- run: npm test
- run: npm run cypress:run
