Generating Client Test Data

Requirements

Generate test requests and responses for Knora's routes, to be used in testing client code without the need for a running Knora instance.

Implementation

Client test data is generated as a side effect of running Knora's E2E tests. E2E tests use ClientTestDataCollector to collect test API requests and responses. The implementation of ClientTestDataCollector collects these in a Redis hash. When the E2E tests have completed, the script webapi/scripts/dump-client-test-data.sh saves the collected test data in a Zip file. It then checks the filenames in the Zip file by comparing them with the list in webapi/scripts/expected-client-test-data.txt.

Usage

To generate client test data, type:

make test-e2e

When the tests have finished running, you will find the file client-test-data.zip in the current directory.

If generated client test data changes, run make test-e2e, then run this script to update the list of expected test data files:

webapi/scripts/update-expected-client-test-data.sh
