Automated tests for the Mozillians web application.

You will need a version of the Java Runtime Environment installed

Before you will be able to run these tests, you will need to have Python 2.6 installed (or a newer, stable version).

Run

easy_install pip

followed by

sudo pip install -r requirements/mozwebqa.txt

note

If you are running on Ubuntu/Debian you will need to do following first

sudo apt-get install python-setuptools

to install the required Python libraries.

Once this is all set up, you will need to download and start a Selenium server. You can download the latest Selenium server from here. The filename will be something like 'selenium-server-standalone-x.x.x.jar'

To start the Selenium server run the following command:

java -jar ~/Downloads/selenium-server-standalone-x.x.x.jar

Change the path/name to the downloaded Selenium server file.

Tests are run using py.tests. It will automatically find the tests to be run when run in the root of mozillians-tests. The following are the options that you will need to configure in order to run the tests appropriately.

• credentials: The path to a yaml file that stores usernames and passwords to log into browserID.
• api: Currently mozillians tests are set to the rc api.
• baseurl: The URL where you can locate the mozillians instance you are testing. Likely either http://mozillians-dev.allizom.org or http://localhost:8001.
• browser: Configure the browser that selenium will talk to. In this case "*firefox"
• n: The number of simultaneously running tests.

Take the credentials file in the root directory and replace the emails and passwords with valid browserID emails and passwords. Make sure that the vouched email account is infact vouched on the test server. Here is the example credential file:

user:
    email: <insert valid email>
    password: <insert valid password>
    name: <give it a name>

unvouched:
    email: <insert valid email>
    password: <insert valid password>
    name: <give it a name>

Before you get started make sure to update the fields in between "<" and ">".

To run tests locally, it's a simple case of calling py.test from the Mozillians-tests directory.

Try running a command as follows and modifying it as necessary.

py.test -n 2 --credentials=credentials.yaml --baseurl=http://mozillians-dev.allizom.org --browser=*firefox 

For other instructions type py.test --help .

If you want to get involved and add more tests then there's just a few things we'd like to ask you to do:

1. Use the template files for all new tests and page objects
2. Follow our simple style guide
3. Fork this project with your own GitHub account
4. Make sure all tests are passing, and submit a pull request with your changes
