Introduction

Here's the typical testing pyramid - it shows that UI tests will not replace any other tests (manual tests or Acceptance/Integration tests) but will complete our test setup.

UI Tests

Location

Our ui tests are placed in the ce-bundle/magnolia-integration-tests/tests because all the required setup (install and start an author and public instance) is already there.

Automated run

We use Selenium for testing our ui. The UITest will be part of magnolia-integration-test/tests and use its test-webapp & test-public-webapp. UITests are only triggered if you specify the corresponding profile (uitest). As specifying a profile no longer invokes the default profile (jetty6-standalone) you have to pass this one as well.

Code Block
languagebash
titlelaunch uitests
..../magnolia-integration-tests/tests mvn clean install -P ui-tests,jetty6-standalone

 

Manual run

If you want to run the ui tests manually from within your IDE you can start the author and public tests instance with

Code Block
languagebash
titlelaunch uitests
..../magnolia-integration-tests/tests mvn clean install -P manual-tests,jetty6-standalone

Outlook

  • Execute tests with with different browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Ie, ...) an different OS's (OSX, Unix, Windows, iOs, ...) using hudson slaves
