BaseApp End-To-End Tests

BaseApp E2E

Usage

This project includes utilities for database initialization and seeding when performing End-To-End tests.

E2E Endpoints

E2EViewSet has a set of endpoints for managing the test data from the frontend E2E test client (usually from Cypress):

• POST /load-data - load data using Django's default serizlization format. Example payload:

{
    "objects": [{
        "model": "users.user",
        "fields": {
            "email": "[e-mail]",
            // ...
        }}, {
        "model": "users.user",
        "fields": {
            "email": "[e-mail]",
            // ...
        }
    }]
}

• POST /load-script - load data through a script module that exists in the backend project repository. Example:

Set the SCRIPTS_PACKAGE setting to a module path where the scripts are located:

E2E = {
    "ENABLED": True,
    "SCRIPTS_PACKAGE": "e2e.scripts",
}

Then add a python script on the defined module path, e.g.: <project-root>/e2e/scripts/users.py. The script is expected to have a def load() function that will be executed by the endpoint.

import tests.factories as f

def load():
    f.UserFactory()

To request the script to be run use request format as:

{
    "scripts": ["users"]
}

• POST /flush-data - remove the data from database using Django flush command
• POST /set-password - set a password for an existing user. Example payload:

{
    "user": <user id>,
    "password": "1234"
}
