| + | ===== Javascript testing ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Testing of javascript is in its infancy in NAV. We are currently using [[http://busterjs.org/|buster.js]] as testing toolkit. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To install buster.js install [[http://nodejs.org/|node]] and then: | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | npm install -g buster | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | As we use [[http://requirejs.org/|require.js]] you need the AMD module of buster aswell. Install it in the /media/js directory: | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | npm install buster-amd | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | To run the tests you need to | ||
| + | - Start a buster server by typing ''buster-server'' | ||
| + | - Capture browsers by pointing browsers to the buster-server (default localhost:1111) | ||
| + | - Go to /media/js | ||
| + | - Run the tests by typing ''buster-test'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | All tests are located under ''media/js/tests/''. Create new tests there. For syntax, assertions and related stuff take a look at the tests already there and [[http://busterjs.org/docs/|the buster docs]]. | ||

| + | ===== Tips and tricks ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Make fixtures for integration testing ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | from django.core import serializers | ||
| + | from nav.models.manage import Netbox | ||
| + | |||
| + | fixtures = serializers.serialize("xml", Netbox.objects.all()[:2]) | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Fixtures can so be used in your integration tests by extending | ||
| + | the test case DjangoTransactionTestCase in nav.tests.cases | ||
| + | |||
| + | See nav.tests.integration.l2trace_test for an example on applying | ||
| + | fixtures for your particular test case. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Also keep in mind you have to make sure you have the model | ||
| + | dependency in correct order when importing. | ||
| + | Example: Netbox contains a location to a Room where it is located, | ||
| + | you have to make sure Room's are imported first before importing | ||
| + | Netbox's | ||
| + | |||
| + | See https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/serialization/ | ||
| + | |||
| + | TODO: Be able to use [[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/django-admin/#dumpdata-appname-appname-appname-model|django-admin's management command: dumpdata]] | ||
| + | to create fixtures. | ||
