Cypress Tests run with Circle CI

Install

npm i .

Run (tests before pushing to repo for Circle CI)

npm start # runs tests in complete Cypress GUI

OR npm run cli # runs tests in terminal

Docker

This will serve a web socket which can be used to call the cypress tests, receiving the results back to the client in real time.

docker build -t portal-ui-cypress-tests .
docker run -p 8765:8765 -v $PWD:/portal_ui_ci portal-ui-cypress-tests

Passing params to the socket

To send various options to the socket pass a message with params=base64_json_str_here. The value of base64_json_str_here is simply an object like {token:str, display_name:str, options:str} that has been stringified and encoded in base64. Example:

    const socket = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:8765")
    //const ops = {token: "required globus token", display_name: "required email associated with token", options: "optional cypress cli options"}
    const ops = {token: "required globus token", display_name: "[email protected]", options: '-- --spec "cypress/e2e/provenance/page.cy.js"'}
    // Connection opened
    socket.addEventListener("open", event => {
      const msg = `🚀 Requesting Cypress reports ... Date: ${new Date()}.\n params=${btoa(JSON.stringify(ops))}`
      socket.send(msg)
    });

Environment Requirements

cp cypress.example.env.json cypress.env.json

• Change the values of token and session_displayname to a valid Globus token and the respective user display name, usually the email.

Using a Globus ID for certain tests

Certain tests need an actual login process in order to verify, like the redirect to requested non-public page after login. To set up for such a test, you need a Globus ID and password.

• Change the values of username and password to that of your own Globus ID username and password respectively. Also set the session_displayname.
• You may need to create one here.
• Then set up this new Globus ID as an alias in your globus.org account.
  • Sign in to your Globus Account
  • Click Account in the left vertical menu bar
  • Click Link Another Identity. Follow the onscreen steps
  • You should be able to see your new identity listed in the Identities tab as yourid@@globusid.org
