Back4App Cloud Code Testing Example

  • Clone this repo
git clone https://github.com/considine/b4a-cloud-code-test-example.git
cd b4a-cloud-code-test-example.git
  • Install the dependencies
npm install

  • Create a test Parse Server. You can set up your own local instance, or create an app on Back4App (call it test-app or something to differentiate between production applications)

    • This will be used to run tests without corrupting live production data

  • Grab your keys from the Parse Dashboard

  1. Go to your Parse Dashboard
  2. Select the test application
  3. Click 'App Settings' on the left hand side, and then select 'Security and Keys'

  • Open up the file spec/constants.js, and paste in your master and application keys FROM YOUR TEST SERVER!

  • Run the tests:

./node_modules/jasmine/bin/jasmine.js spec/signup-user.spec.js

You can also install Jasmine globally if you prefer the command be prettier:

npm install -g jasmine
jasmine spec/signup-user.spec.js

OR you can use the npm command

npm run test
