Activate your project python environment. Then install all the required test packages:
$ pip install -r requirements/tests.txt
First, make sure the Seshat repo root directory is in your PYTHONPATH:
$ export PYTHONPATH="${PYTHONPATH}:/path/to/seshat"
Then use the Django test interface to run tests for apps:
$ python manage.py test <app name> --keepdb
Replace <app name>
with the app's full name (e.g. seshat.apps.core
) (or leave this setting entirely off to run all tests).
The --keepdb
flag ensures you can rerun tests quickly if the setup hasn't changed.
GitHub actions is set up to run on this repo. It uses a custom Docker image that gets built on every push or PR to dev
if the Dockerfile has changed.
See .github/workflows
and the Dockerfile
. The tests (.github/workflows/tests.yml
) and any subsequently introduced workflows should always run on push/PR to dev
.
To set up pushing the docker image using the GH action workflow, I first did the following:
- Generated a new GitHub token with the
read:packages
andwrite:packages
scopes. Under mySettings > Developer settings > Personal access tokens
(classic token). - Stored the GitHub token as a secret in the Seshat GitHub repository,
Settings > Secrets
, namedGH_TOKEN
.
