Dataform Tests

Acceptance tests

Setup

See Acceptance testing for information about preparing your Moodle installation for acceptance testing. Note that this is not recommended for production sites.

Running the tests

Administrator can run Dataform acceptance tests with the Moodle behat command line tool (see Acceptance_testing#Running_tests).

Alternately administrator can use the Dataform Acceptance testing interface from

Administration > Site administration > Plugins > Activity modules > Dataform > Acceptance testing

for testing particular Dataform features by name or tags.

The current implementation of the Dataform Acceptance testing interface assumes that a selenium server is running. To run a test, select a feature or tags and click 'Run tests'. The page will hang until the tests are completed. If you run long tests it may be better to run them from a command line.

Adding tests

See Acceptance_testing#Writing_features for general test writing guidelines.
