This package contains end-to-end tests that use TestCafe to exercise functionality in the front end. The tests can be run against a remote, deployed environment in AWS or a local development version of the system running in offline mode.
Ensure you have created a Mailosaur account as documented in the README if you are using a real deployed backend. This allows the E2E tests to receive signup and verification emails. Once you have done that, set the following environment variables in your shell. The values can be retrieved from your mailosaur account.
export MAILOSAUR_API_KEY=<api_key_value>
export MAILOSAUR_SERVER_ID=<server_id>
The value of the SLIC_STAGE environment indicates which endpoints the integration tests will run against.
To run against the local offline system, simply execute:
SLIC_STAGE=local npm test
To run against the remote system, simply execute the following, change the value of SLIC_STAGE to the stage you wish to target. If you have configured your deployment without a domain (according to the QUICK START guide), this environment variable is not required.
SLIC_NS_DOMAIN=sliclists.com SLIC_STAGE=stg npm test
In both cases, ensure that relevant AWS credentials are set in your environment (either through AWS_PROFILE with AWS_SDK_LOAD_CONFIG=true or with individual environment variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, etc.).
You can run a single test by specifying the tests explicitly as follows.
SLIC_STAGE=dev npm run testcafe -- test/login.test.js
