Using the plugin

Environment setup

node.js and npm are needed for using this project. npm comes bundled with the node.js installer. You can download the node.js installer here: https://nodejs.org/download/.

Once you have installed node.js and npm, install the dev dependencies for the project.

npm install

Using the plugin manually

Follow these steps to test your modifications to the plugin manually:

  • clone this repository

  • install the dependencies

    Navigate to the root folder from your command line console and run:

     npm install
    
  • install the plugin in a React-Native project

    Navigate to the root folder of your React-Native project from your command line console and run:

     npm install local_path_to_your_clone_of_this_repo
    
  • configure the plugin using the steps in the README.md

  • build and run your app on an emulator or device

Test

Environment setup

First, make sure you have installed the dependencies for the plugin by following the steps above.

Then, make sure you have installed react-native.

npm install -g react-native

To run Android tests, make sure you have sdk\tools, sdk\emulator and sdk\platform-tools in your PATH.

To run iOS tests, make sure you've installed CocoaPods and have .gem/bin in your PATH.

Supported platforms

The plugin has end to end tests for Android and iOS. Depending on your development machine OS, you can run some or all the tests.

OS Supported tests
OS X Android, iOS
Windows Android

Test descriptions

The tests first build the app.

They then check if the required emulators are currently running.

If an Android emulator is not running, it attempts to boot the latest Android emulator. You can specify an emulator by adding env variable ANDROID_EMU=yourEmulatorNameHere to the npm command. For example: ANDROID_EMU=yourEmulatorNameHere npm run test:android.

If an iOS simulator is not running, it attempts to boot the latest iOS iPhone simulator. You can specify a simulator by adding env variable IOS_EMU=yourSimulatorNameHere to the npm command. For example: IOS_EMU="iPhone 8 (0567DFF8-329E-41A3-BD6D-E48E9DD5EF39)" npm run test:ios.

If all the required emulators are not running and the tests fail to boot them, the tests will fail.

If you would like the tests to always restart the necessary emulators (killing them if they are currently running), setup a env variable CLEAN=true to the command. For example: CLEAN=true npm run test.

The desired unit tests are then run.

If you would like to skip building, add a :fast in the command you'd like to run. For example, npm run test:ios becomes npm run test:fast:ios or npm run test:android becomes npm run test:fast:android.

There is a both a full unit test suite and a "core" set of unit tests that you may run. If you would like to run only the core tests, setup a env variable CORE=true to the command. For example: CORE=true npm run test:android.

If you would like to pull the plugin from NPM rather than running the tests on the local version, setup a env variable NPM=true to the command. For example: NPM=true npm run test:ios.

Default

To run all of the unit tests on Android and iOS:

npm run test

iOS

To run all of the unit tests on iOS:

npm run test:ios

Android

To run all of the unit tests on Android:

npm run test:android

More examples

All possible testing configurations have tasks!

The platforms are ordered as follows, and ran in that order: android, ios

To run the core unit tests on Android:

CORE=true npm run test:android

To run all of the unit tests on iOS and pull the plugin from NPM:

NPM=true npm run test:ios

To run all of the unit tests on Android and iOS without building first:

npm run test:fast

To run all of the unit tests on iOS and restart the emulators:

CLEAN=true npm run test:ios

To run the core unit tests on Android and pull the plugin from NPM:

NPM=true CORE=true npm run test:android

...and so on!
