Implementation of Cucumber tests for the Happy Puppy application, from Jeff @cheezy Morgan's "Cucumber and Cheese" book
The tests can be run through rake:
rake features # all features
rake wip # only scenarios tagged with @wip
rake specs # run rspecs
The default target is to run all the features against the live application deployed to Heroku (http://puppies.herokuapp.com/).
Get the code from https://github.com/cheezy/puppies, and follow the instructions there to get the initial database set up and the app running.
Before running the tests, the 'admin' user needs to be added to the application by visiting http://localhost:3000/users. Create a new user, with the user name and password specified in config/environments/local.yml
To run the tests agains the local app, execute:
rake ENV=local
Or:
export ENV=local
rake
The git repository has been tagged at different points, so that you can see the example evolve:
| Tag | Implementation |
|---|---|
| test-1 | direct browser manipulation |
| test-2-outline | test turned into scenario outline |
| test-3-transform | test uses a trasform rule |
| test-4-pageObjects | steps implemented through Page Objects |
| test-5-inlineTable | adoption scenario reimplemented with an inline table |
| test-6-defaultData | simplified and abstracted scenarios using Default Data |
| test-6-random | randomized scenario data |
| test-7-externalized | externalized default data using DataMagic |
| test-8-rndExternal | randomized externalized default data |
| test-9-panel | created reusable panel for error messages |
| test-10-matcher | custom matcher used to simplify step definition |
| test-11-routes | introduced routes to simplify step definition |
| test-12-rspec | created tests using rspec |
| test-13-figNewton | externalized configuration parameters |
| test-14-local | support for testing against local environment |
| ch4 | completed chapter 4 |
| ch5 | completed chapter 5 |
All the gems are installed into vendor/bundle and checked in (why? This is something I learnt from James Shore (@jamesshore) -- see here)
To update the dependencies run:
rake bundler
