Running tests

Build and run tests once:

TZ=UTC yarn test

Note the TZ=UTC environment variable which is currently required to get tests working if your system timezone doesn't match UTC.

If you are serving the admin app (e.g., when running yarn serve, or when running yarn dev in the main Ghost project), you can also run the tests in your browser by going to http://localhost:4200/tests.

This has the additional benefit that you can use await this.pauseTest() in your tests to temporarily pause tests (best to also add this.timeout(0); to avoid timeouts). This allows you to inspect the DOM in your browser to debug tests. You can resume tests by running resumeTest() in your browser console.

Writing tests

When writing tests and not using the http://localhost:4200/tests browser tests, it can be easier to have a separate watching build that builds the project for the test environment (this drastically reduces the time you have to wait when running tests):

yarn build --environment=test -w -o="dist-test"

After that, you can easily run tests locally:

Run all tests:

TZ=UTC yarn test 1 --path="dist-test"

To have a cleaner output:

TZ=UTC yarn test 1 --reporter dot  --path="dist-test"

This shows a dot (.) for every successful test, and F for every failed test. At the end, it will only show the output of the failed tests.

To run a specific test file:

TZ=UTC yarn test 1 --reporter dot  --path="dist-test" -mp=tests/acceptance/settings/newsletters-test.js

Hint: you can easily copy the path of a test in VSCode by right clicking on the test file and choosing Copy Relative Path.

To have a full list of the available options, run

ember exam --help

Have a bug or issue?

Bugs and issues (even if they only affect the admin app) should be opened on the core Ghost repository.
