Plugin Functional Tests
This folder contains plugin functional tests, i.e. functional tests that should be executed against a Kibana instance with specific test plugins available.
To add a plugin to the instance, just place the plugin folder in the plugins
directory.
Add new test suites into the test_suites
folder and reference them from the
config.js
file. These test suites work the same as regular functional test
except that they are executed against a Kibana with all plugins (from the
plugins
directory) installed.
Run the test
To run these tests during development you can use the following commands:
# Start the test server (can continue running)
node scripts/functional_tests_server.js --config test/plugin_functional/config.ts
# Start a test run
node scripts/functional_test_runner.js --config test/plugin_functional/config.ts
Run Kibana with a test plugin
In case you want to start Kibana with one of the test plugins (e.g. for developing the test plugin), you can just run:
yarn start --plugin-path=test/plugin_functional/plugins/<plugin_folder>
If you wish to start Kibana with multiple test plugins, you can run:
yarn start --plugin-path=test/plugin_functional/plugins/<plugin_folder1> --plugin-path=test/plugin_functional/plugins/<plugin_folder2> ...
If you wish to load up specific es archived data for your test, you can do so via the es_archiver
script detailed in the Scripts README.md
Another option, which will automatically use any specific settings the test environment may rely on, is to boot up the functional test server pointing to the plugin configuration file.
node scripts/functional_tests_server --config test/plugin_functional/config.ts
Note: you may still need to use the es_archiver script to boot up any required data.
