EKKE
Ekke-Ekke-Ekke-Ekke PTANG Zoo Boing! Z' nourrwringmm...
ekke
a unique new test runner for React-Native. Unlike other testing frameworks, it doesn't execute your tests in Node.js, with a bunch of mocks, but instead, it orchestrates the bundling and execution of tests directly inside your React-Native application. ekke
allows your tests to fully access every API to the platform has to offer.
Why should you adopt Ekke for React-Native testing?
- Platform independent The test runner does not contain any native code that means that every platform that React-Native supports now, or in the future will work out of the box.
- Code confidence Tests run in the environment of your production code. No need to rely on imperfect mocks. Tests run on devices to guarantee API's match specifications.
- Different test runners At its core, Ekke is nothing more than an orchestration tool. We have built-in support for different test runners.
- Rendering It's not just unit tests. Ekke provides a rendering API that allows you to mount and render components in your test suite.
Ekke in action: running a test suite, streaming results back to the CLI
Installation
The module is released in the public NPM Registry and can be installed by running:
npm install --save ekke
After installation, you can integrate ekke
into your project.
Table of Contents
Integration
Ekke needs a host application to run. That can either be the application you are currently developing or fresh installation of react-native init
.
Not sure what to pick?
- Application developers Using the application that you're currently developing is recommended. This allows your test suites to execute in precisely the same environment. Also, it will enable your test suites to leverage any
NativeModule
that your application might be consuming. - Library authors It depends on the library you're developing. If you are building a native add-on, or include
NativeModules
as dependencies, it's advised to create an example application in your project that has all native libraries linked. TODO: What is the alternative here, if there is one?
Integrating is as easy as importing ekke
, and including the component in your app!
import { Ekke } from 'ekke';
function App() {
return (
<>
<Ekke />
<View>
<Text>Your App Here</Text>
</View>
</>
)
}
You can now run your tests by executing the run command of the ekke
CLI:
# Make sure that the simulator of your choice is running.
react-native run-ios # or react-native run-android
ekke run glob/pattern/*.test.js more/test/files.js --using mocha
And now watch the magic unfold on your app.
If you are worried about shipping
Ekke
in your application, the component is using process.env.NODE_ENV to switch between development and production builds. Production builds will completely removeEkke
from your code. You can also conditionally include it{ __DEV__ && <Ekke /> }
.
Runners
At its core, Ekke is nothing more than an orchestration tool, it runs Metro bundler with a specific configuration, executes code automatically in the React Native environment, and reports back in the CLI. To run the test, we need to know which test runner you prefer so we can bundle it with the tests. The following runners are available:
mocha
To use Mocha make sure you have the testing framework as well as an assertion framework installed in your project:
npm install --save-dev mocha
npm install --save-dev assume # or any other assert framework, e.g. chai
Once all your dependencies finish installing, you can start writing your tests.
import { describe, it } from 'mocha';
import { render } from 'ekke';
import assume from 'assume';
describe('The best test suite in the world', function () {
it('is amazing', function () {
const amazing = 'amazing';
assume(amazing).is.a('string');
assume(!!amazing).is.true();
});
});
Provide mocha
as value to the --using
flag to select it as test runner.
ekke run test.js --using mocha
The following Mocha options can be customized using the follow CLI flags:
--mocha.fgrep
Only run tests containing this string. Defaults to''
.--mocha.grep
Only run tests matching this string. Defaults to''
.--mocha.invert
Inverts grep and fgrep matches. Defaults tofalse
.--mocha.ui
Specify user interface. Defaults tobdd
.--mocha.reporter
Specify reporter to use. Defaults tospec
.--mocha.slow
Specify "slow" test threshold (in milliseconds). Defaults to75
.--mocha.timeout
Specify the test timeout threshold (in milliseconds). Defaults to2000
.--mocha.bail
Abort ("bail") after first test failure. Defaults totrue
.--mocha.color
Force-enable color output. Defaults totrue
.--mocha.inlineDiffs
Display actual/expected differences inline within each string. Defaults totrue
.
ekke run test.js --using mocha --mocha.reporter min --mocha.timeout 5000
Tape
Using tape as the test runner is pretty self-explanatory. You import tape
into your test files and write your tests and assertions using provided by the framework.
import { render } from 'ekke';
import test from 'tape';
test('one', function (t) {
t.plan(2);
t.ok(true);
setTimeout(function () {
t.equal(1+3, 4);
}, 100);
});
Once the tests are completed, simple tell ekke
that you're --using tape
to run the tests.
ekke run test.js --using tape
The will run your tests, and output the TAP (Test. Anything. Protocol) to your terminal which you can pipe to any of the Pretty Tap Reporters that you might have installed. For example, if you want to use tap-spec
:
ekke run test.js --using tape | tap-spec
API
The API exposes the following methods:
Component
import { Ekke } from 'ekke';
The Ekke
component controls the orchestration, execution, and rendering of the test suite. The component can be used as a wrapper, or as a regular component and be included in your application.
The component accepts the following optional properties:
interval
, String, The component doesn't know when you are using the CLI, so it polls at a given interval, with an HTTP request, to the server that runs in the CLI to figure out if it's active and is waiting for tests to run. The lower the interval, the quicker your tests will be picked up by the component, but also the more performance it takes away from your app. Defaults to10 seconds
.hostname
, String, The hostname of your machine that the CLI server is running on. Defaults tolocalhost
on iOS and10.0.2.2
on Android.port
, Number, The port number that the CLI server is running on. Defaults to1975
.alive
, Function, Function to execute when theEkke
test runner is activated and is about to run the test suites.
//
// Stand alone.
//
<Ekke />
//
// Or wrap your app with it, you decide what is best for your application.
//
<Ekke>
<App />
</Ekke>
To see an example of the implementation, take a look at our index.js file. It's what we use to test our code.
render
import { render } from 'ekke';
The render method allows you to render any React-Native component on the screen of the application.
import { View } from 'react-native';
import { render } from 'ekke';
import React from 'react';
describe('test', function () {
it('renders a red square', function () {
const ref = React.createRef();
await render(<View style={{
backgroundColor: 'red',
width: 100,
height: 100
}} ref={ ref } />);
//
// You can now use ref.current to access the rendered view.
// Not only that, but there's big red square on your app as well.
//
});
});
CLI
The ekke
CLI is automatically installed in your node_modules
when you install ekke
in the project as a dependency. We use the CLI to communicate between the <Ekke />
component that you included in your application and the terminal.
The CLI should not be globally installed. Instead, you directly reference the locally installed binary from your package.json
.
{
"name": "your-super-awesome-package",
"scripts": {
"test": "ekke run test/*.js --using mocha"
}
}
And run the scripts using npm
.
npm test
# You can use the double dash support from npm to send additional flags:
# npm test -- --watch
Alternatively, you can use the npx
command to execute the commands as well without the requirement of global installation of ekke
:
npx ekke <commands here>
The following CLI commands are available:
run
ekke run <glob or files to run> --flags
The run
command allows you to run your specified tests on the device that included the <Ekke />
React component. When you run the command, we will execute the following:
- Start up the Metro bundler on the specified
hostname
andport
. - Attach a WebSocket server on the created Metro bundler, for communication purposes.
- Find all the test files you want to include based on the supplied glob.
- Wait for the poll request from the
<Ekke />
component. - Bundle all your tests, and the specified library using Metro Bundler.
- Listen to progress events that are sent by
<Ekke />
component over the WebSocket connection. - Proxy all the
console.*
,process.stdout
to your terminal. - Close the CLI again with error code
0
or1
depending on if your tests pass.
The run
command assumes that all CLI arguments after the run
command are the test files that need to execute inside React-Native. We allow single or multiple files, a glob pattern, or a combination of files and globs.
# Executes test/1.js, test/2.js, and then test/2.js using the mocha runner.
ekke run test/1.js test/2.js test/3.js --using mocha
# The same above, but done using a glob pattern to fetch all .js files
# from the test directory
ekke run test/*.js --using mocha
# Executes test/1.js and then all the .test.js files
ekke run test/1.js test/*.test.js --using tape
You can use the following CLI flags to change the behavior of the command:
--using {runner}
This tells Ekke which runner should be used to execute your tests. Defaults tomocha
See Runners for all runners.--watch
By default, we close the process with either an exit code0
or1
as an indication of the test results (0 passes, 1 failure). If you do not want the process to exit, you can use the--watch
flag to keep the CLI process alive. Defaults to false.--reset-cache
The Metro Bundler caching system is enabled by default so that tests run in a performant way and don't always rebuild. Using this flag will disable the cache. Defaults to false.--cache-location
We already made sure that the Metro Bundler cache of your test doesn't collide with your test cache, but if you like to store it somewhere else you can change it with this flag. Defaults toos.tempdir()/ekke-cache
.--no-silent
We silence the output of the Metro bundler by default, this allows you to see the Metro bundler output again. Defaults to false.--hostname
The hostname we should attach our Metro Bundler on. The hostname should be accessible by React-Native application. Defaults tolocalhost
.--port
The port number we should use for the Metro Bundler, we don't want to clash with the Metro bundler of yourreact-native start
command so it should be different, but still accessible by your React-Native application. Defaults to1975
(The year Monty Python and the Holy Grail got released)--require
Files that should be required before your test suites are required Defaults to ¯_(ツ)_/¯, nothing
In addition to these default flags, any flag that you prefix with the name of the runner will be considered as options and used as configuration:
ekke run test.js --using mocha --mocha.timeout 3000
See the Runners for their specific configuration flags.
help
Display a list of all the available command their supported CLI flags. The help message is visible when you run ekke
without, an unknown, or the help
command:
ekke (v1.0.2)
Ekke-Ekke-Ekke-Ekke-PTANG. Zoo-Boing. Z' nourrwringmm...
COMMANDS:
run Run the given glob of test files.
--port Port number that Metro Bundler should use.
--hostname Hostname that Metro Bundler should use.
--using Name of the test runner to use.
--watch Don't exit when the tests complete but keep listening.
--no-silent Do not suppress the output of Metro.
--require Require module (before tests are executed).
--reset-cache Clear the Metro cache.
--cache-location Change the Metro cache location.
help Displays this help message.
--no-color Disable colors in help message.
EXAMPLES:
$ ekke run ./test/*.test.js --using mocha
The output contains colors by default if you wish to remove those you can use the --no-color
flag.
Debugging
Both the CLI
and the react-native
code bases use diagnostics under the hood for logging purposes. The logs are disabled by default but can be enabled by using the DEBUG
feature flags. They both log under the ekke:*
namespace.
The Ekke CLI
DEBUG=ekke* ekke <your command here>
React Native Component
import { AsyncStorage } from 'react-native';
AsyncStorage.setItem('debug', 'ekke*', function () {
//
// Reload your app, and the debug logs will now be enabled.
//
});
For more detailed information about diagnostics, please see their project page.
