Writing tests for Open-Event
As our application and code base increased it became necessary to write tests for each functionality. Earlier we had tests only for basic functionalities like creating an event, editing an event, but then it is very important and also beneficial if we have tests for each and every small functionality. Hence we started writing proper tests. We divivded the tests into three folder API Functionality Views All the API related tests were in the above one whereas the basic functionalities were in the second one. The last folder was further divided into three parts Admin Tests Super-Admin Tests Guest Pages We had to test each and every functionality. For example let us look at the test file for the events. It looks like this: class TestEvents(OpenEventViewTestCase): def test_events_list(self): with app.test_request_context(): url = url_for('events.index_view') rv = self.app.get(url, follow_redirects=True) self.assertTrue("Manage Events" in rv.data, msg=rv.data) def test_events_create(self): with app.test_request_context(): url = url_for('events.create_view') rv = self.app.get(url, follow_redirects=True) self.assertTrue("Create Event" in rv.data, msg=rv.data) def test_events_create_post(self): with app.test_request_context(): custom_forms = ObjectMother.get_custom_form() url = url_for('events.create_view') data = POST_EVENT_DATA.copy() del data['copyright'] data['start_date'] = '07/04/2016' data['start_time'] = '19:00' data['end_date'] = '07/04/2016' data['end_time'] = '22:00' data['custom_form[name]'] = ['session_form', 'speaker_form'] data['custom_form[value]'] = [custom_forms.session_form, custom_forms.speaker_form] rv = self.app.post(url, follow_redirects=True, buffered=True, content_type='multipart/form-data', data=data) self.assertTrue(POST_EVENT_DATA['name'] in rv.data, msg=rv.data) def test_events_create_post_publish(self): with app.test_request_context(): url = url_for('events.create_view') data = POST_EVENT_DATA.copy() del data['copyright'] data['start_date'] = '07/04/2016' data['start_time'] = '19:00' data['end_date'] = '07/04/2016' data['end_time'] = '22:00' data['state'] = 'Published' rv = self.app.post(url, follow_redirects=True, buffered=True, content_type='multipart/form-data', data=data) self.assertTrue('unpublish' in rv.data, msg=rv.data) def test_events_create_post_publish_without_location_attempt(self): with app.test_request_context(): custom_forms = ObjectMother.get_custom_form() url = url_for('events.create_view') data = POST_EVENT_DATA.copy() del data['copyright'] data['start_date'] = '07/04/2016' data['start_time'] = '19:00' data['end_date'] = '07/04/2016' data['end_time'] = '22:00' data['location_name'] = '' data['state'] = u'Published' data['custom_form[name]'] = ['session_form', 'speaker_form'] data['custom_form[value]'] = [custom_forms.session_form, custom_forms.speaker_form] rv = self.app.post(url, follow_redirects=True, buffered=True, content_type='multipart/form-data', data=data) self.assertTrue('To publish your event please review the highlighted fields below' in rv.data, msg=rv.data) def test_events_edit(self): with app.test_request_context(): event = ObjectMother.get_event() save_to_db(event, "Event saved") custom_forms = ObjectMother.get_custom_form(event.id) save_to_db(custom_forms, "Custom forms saved") url = url_for('events.edit_view', event_id=event.id) data = POST_EVENT_DATA.copy() del data['copyright'] data['name'] = 'EditTestName' data['start_date'] = '07/04/2016' data['start_time'] = '19:00' data['end_date'] = '07/04/2016' data['end_time'] = '22:00' data['custom_form[name]'] = ['session_form', 'speaker_form'] data['custom_form[value]'] = [custom_forms.session_form, custom_forms.speaker_form] rv = self.app.post(url, follow_redirects=True, buffered=True, content_type='multipart/form-data', data=data) self.assertTrue('EditTestName' in rv.data, msg=rv.data) def test_event_view(self): with app.test_request_context(): event = ObjectMother.get_event() save_to_db(event, "Event saved") url = url_for('events.details_view', event_id=event.id) rv = self.app.get(url, follow_redirects=True) self.assertTrue("event1" in rv.data, msg=rv.data) microlocation = ObjectMother.get_microlocation(event_id=event.id) track = ObjectMother.get_track(event_id=event.id) cfs = ObjectMother.get_cfs(event_id=event.id) save_to_db(track, "Track saved") save_to_db(microlocation, "Microlocation saved") save_to_db(cfs, "Call for speakers saved") rv = self.app.get(url, follow_redirects=True) self.assertTrue("event1" in rv.data, msg=rv.data) def test_event_publish(self): with app.test_request_context(): event = ObjectMother.get_event() save_to_db(event, "Event saved") url = url_for('events.publish_event', event_id=event.id) rv = self.app.get(url, follow_redirects=True) event = DataGetter.get_event(event.id) self.assertEqual("Published", event.state, msg=event.state) def test_event_unpublish(self): with app.test_request_context(): event = ObjectMother.get_event() event.state = "Published" save_to_db(event, "Event saved") url = url_for('events.unpublish_event', event_id=event.id) rv = self.app.get(url, follow_redirects=True) event = DataGetter.get_event(event.id) self.assertEqual("Draft", event.state, msg=event.state) def test_event_delete(self): with app.test_request_context(): event = ObjectMother.get_event() save_to_db(event, "Event saved") url = url_for('events.trash_view', event_id=event.id) rv = self.app.get(url, follow_redirects=True) self.assertTrue("Your event has been deleted" in rv.data, msg=rv.data) def test_event_copy(self): with app.test_request_context(): event = ObjectMother.get_event() save_to_db(event, "Event saved")…
