# SyTest
|
|
|
|
Dendrite uses [SyTest](https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest) for its
|
|
integration testing. When creating a new PR, add the test IDs (see below) that
|
|
your PR should allow to pass to `testfile` in dendrite's root directory. Not all
|
|
PRs need to make new tests pass. If we find your PR should be making a test pass
|
|
we may ask you to add to that file, as generally Dendrite's progress can be
|
|
tracked through the amount of SyTest tests it passes.
|
|
|
|
## Finding out which tests to add
|
|
|
|
We recommend you run the tests locally by manually setting up SyTest or using a
|
|
SyTest docker image. After running the tests, a script will print the tests you
|
|
need to add to `testfile` for you.
|
|
|
|
You should proceed after you see no build problems for dendrite after running:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./build.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Manually Setting up SyTest
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have Perl v5+ installed, and get SyTest with:
|
|
|
|
(Note that this guide assumes your SyTest checkout is next to your
|
|
`dendrite` checkout.)
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone -b develop https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest
|
|
cd sytest
|
|
./install-deps.pl
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Set up the database:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE USER dendrite PASSWORD 'itsasecret'"
|
|
sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE DATABASE sytest_template OWNER dendrite"
|
|
mkdir -p "server-0"
|
|
cat > "server-0/database.yaml" << EOF
|
|
args:
|
|
user: dendrite
|
|
database: dendrite
|
|
host: 127.0.0.1
|
|
type: pg
|
|
EOF
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Run the tests:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./run-tests.pl -I Dendrite::Monolith -d ../dendrite/bin -W ../dendrite/testfile -O tap --all | tee results.tap
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where `tee` lets you see the results while they're being piped to the file.
|
|
|
|
Once the tests are complete, run the helper script to see if you need to add
|
|
any newly passing test names to `testfile` in the project's root directory:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
../dendrite/show-expected-fail-tests.sh results.tap
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If the script prints nothing/exits with 0, then you're good to go.
|
|
|
|
### Using a SyTest Docker image
|
|
|
|
Ensure you have the latest image for SyTest, then run the tests:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
docker pull matrixdotorg/sytest-dendrite
|
|
docker run --rm -v /path/to/dendrite/:/src/ matrixdotorg/sytest-dendrite
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where `/path/to/dendrite/` should be replaced with the actual path to your
|
|
dendrite source code. The output should tell you if you need to add any tests to
|
|
`testfile`.
