This directory contains functional and unit tests for the Nominatim API.
Prerequisites
=============
* Python 3 (https://www.python.org/)
* behave test framework >= 1.2.5 (https://github.com/behave/behave)
* nose (https://nose.readthedocs.org)
* pytidylib (http://countergram.com/open-source/pytidylib)
* psycopg2 (http://initd.org/psycopg/)
To get the prerequisites on a a fresh Ubuntu LTS 16.04 run:
[sudo] apt-get install python3-dev python3-pip python3-psycopg2 python3-tidylib phpunit php-cgi
pip3 install --user behave nose
Overall structure
=================
There are two kind of tests in this test suite. There are functional tests
which test the API interface using a BDD test framework and there are unit
tests for specific PHP functions.
This test directory is sturctured as follows:
2017-06-05 22:53:45 +03:00
```
-+- bdd Functional API tests
| \
| +- steps Step implementations for test descriptions
| +- osm2pgsql Tests for data import via osm2pgsql
| +- db Tests for internal data processing on import and update
| +- api Tests for API endpoints (search, reverse, etc.)
|
+- php PHP unit tests
+- scenes Geometry test data
+- testdb Base data for generating API test database
2017-06-05 22:53:45 +03:00
```
PHP Unit Tests
==============
Unit tests can be found in the php/ directory and tests selected php functions.
Very low coverage.
To execute the test suite run
cd test/php
phpunit ../
It will read phpunit.xml which points to the library, test path, bootstrap
strip and set other parameters.
BDD Functional Tests
====================
Functional tests are written as BDD instructions. For more information on
the philosophy of BDD testing, see http://pythonhosted.org/behave/philosophy.html
Usage
-----
To run the functional tests, do
cd test/bdd
behave
The tests can be configured with a set of environment variables:
* `BUILD_DIR` - build directory of Nominatim installation to test
* `TEMPLATE_DB` - name of template database used as a skeleton for
the test databases (db tests)
* `TEST_DB` - name of test database (db tests)
* `API_TEST_DB` - name of the database containing the API test data (api tests)
* `DB_HOST` - (optional) hostname of database host
* `DB_USER` - (optional) username of database login
* `DB_PASS` - (optional) password for database login
* `SERVER_MODULE_PATH` - (optional) path on the Postgres server to Nominatim
module shared library file
* `TEST_SETTINGS_TEMPLATE` - file to write temporary Nominatim settings to
* `REMOVE_TEMPLATE` - if true, the template database will not be reused during
the next run. Reusing the base templates speeds up tests
considerably but might lead to outdated errors for some
changes in the database layout.
* `KEEP_TEST_DB` - if true, the test database will not be dropped after a test
is finished. Should only be used if one single scenario is
run, otherwise the result is undefined.
Logging can be defined through command line parameters of behave itself. Check
out `behave --help` for details. Also keep an eye out for the 'work-in-progress'
feature of behave which comes in handy when writing new tests.
Writing Tests
-------------
The following explanation assume that the reader is familiar with the BDD
notations of features, scenarios and steps.
All possible steps can be found in the `steps` directory and should ideally
be documented.
### API Tests (`test/bdd/api`)
These tests are meant to test the different API endpoints and their parameters.
They require a preimported test database, which consists of the import of a
planet extract. A precompiled PBF with the necessary data can be downloaded from
https://www.nominatim.org/data/test/nominatim-api-testdata.pbf
The polygons defining the extract can be found in the test/testdb
directory. There is also a reduced set of wikipedia data for this extract,
which you need to import as well. For Tiger tests the data of South Dakota
is required. Get the Tiger files `46*`.
The official test dataset is derived from the 160725 planet. Newer
planets are likely to work as well but you may see isolated test
failures where the data has changed. To recreate the input data
for the test database run:
wget https://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/misc/openstreetmap/planet.openstreetmap.org/pbf/planet-180924.osm.pbf
osmconvert planet-180924.osm.pbf -B=test/testdb/testdb.polys -o=testdb.pbf
Before importing make sure to add the following to your local settings:
@define('CONST_Database_DSN', 'pgsql://@/test_api_nominatim');
@define('CONST_Wikipedia_Data_Path', CONST_BasePath.'/test/testdb');
#### Code Coverage
The API tests also support code coverage tests. You need to install
2017-09-17 21:23:40 +03:00
[PHP_CodeCoverage](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/php-code-coverage).
On Debian/Ubuntu run:
2017-09-17 21:23:40 +03:00
apt-get install php-codecoverage php-xdebug
The run the API tests as follows:
behave api -DPHPCOV=<coverage output dir>
2017-09-17 21:23:40 +03:00
The output directory must be an absolute path. To generate reports, you can use
the [phpcov](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpcov) tool:
phpcov merge --html=<report output dir> <coverage output dir>
### Indexing Tests (`test/bdd/db`)
These tests check the import and update of the Nominatim database. They do not
test the correctness of osm2pgsql. Each test will write some data into the `place`
table (and optionally `the planet_osm_*` tables if required) and then run
Nominatim's processing functions on that.
These tests need to create their own test databases. By default they will be
called `test_template_nominatim` and `test_nominatim`. Names can be changed with
the environment variables `TEMPLATE_DB` and `TEST_DB`. The user running the tests
needs superuser rights for postgres.
### Import Tests (`test/bdd/osm2pgsql`)
These tests check that data is imported correctly into the place table. They
use the same template database as the Indexing tests, so the same remarks apply.
