Usage

To run end to end tests, run:

npm run e2e

The tests use Playwright.

After each test a video will be saved in the packages/e2e/test-results/{name-test} directory for further inspection.

The end to end tests use the following environment variables:

• BOT_ACCOUNT_EMAIL — The email address used to login.
• BOT_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD — The password used to login.
• CI_MERGE_REQUEST_IID — By default tests are run against the staging environment on https://staging.appsemble.review. If this variable is specified, tests are run against the merge request review environment instead.
• ACCESS_TOKEN — The access token of the account that's logged in.

Fixtures

Common end-to-end fixtures are defined under the fixtures directory. These are exported for other packages to use, like client apps. This can be done by installing this package and importing test or expect.

Authentication

Some fixtures call the Appsemble API using the Playwright request object. This expects you to have set an access token as environment variable with the name ACCESS_TOKEN beforehand. The easiest way to do this is by setting it in a setup step using the loginUser fixture.

auth.setup.ts

setup('authenticate', async ({ loginUser }) => {
  const accessToken = await loginUser('bot', '12345');
  process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN = accessToken;
});
