Example RSpec Test Suite

This is a sample RSpec Test Suite which uses Buildkite's Test Analytics observability and automation tooling to track test performance, reliability and uses Buildkite's test-splitter to split the suite of tests.

Fetching the Test Splitter

The Dockerfile fetches the test-splitter binary from GitHub and builds it into the Docker container. This is then called by the ./.buildkite/steps/run Bash script.

Include/Exclude filters

This example suite uses BUILDKITE_SPLITTER_TEST_FILE_PATTERN env var to further partition the test suite into unit and acceptance specs. The BUILDKITE_SPLITTER_IDENTIFIER env var is used to ensure that a unique key is used to define the two steps.

Updating Test Ownership

Buildkite Test Analytics offers the concept of test ownership.
