Integration test processes now get their own work directory, config file and random ports, so several runs can execute in parallel on one machine. The slowest tests also lose fixed sleeps and needlessly expensive setup, with their assertions kept. - Batch PostgreSQL sequence resets, the main per-test fixture cost there - Cheap hashing params in hash and OAuth2 fixture tests, full-cost vectors stay - Single fetch for negative Actions runner assertions instead of 1s polls - Queue flushes and backdated timestamps instead of sleeps - In-memory SQLite test journal, tmpfs for PostgreSQL in CI - E2E instance writes SSH keys into its work directory instead of `~/.ssh/authorized_keys`

# Testing
|
|
|
|
Gitea has four kinds of automated tests: backend unit tests, integration tests,
|
|
end-to-end (e2e) tests, and migration tests. Local runs default to SQLite, so no
|
|
extra services are required to get started.
|
|
|
|
For prerequisites see [build-setup.md](build-setup.md); for the build workflow see
|
|
[development.md](development.md).
|
|
|
|
## Unit tests
|
|
|
|
Backend unit tests live in `*_test.go` files next to the code they cover. Set
|
|
`GITEA_TEST_LOG_SQL=1` to log all SQL statements executed during the tests.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make test-backend
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To run a single backend test, use `go test` directly or the `#` selector:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
go test -run '^TestName$' ./modulepath/
|
|
make test-backend#TestName
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Frontend unit tests run with [Vitest](https://vitest.dev/) browser mode:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make test-frontend
|
|
# single file:
|
|
pnpm exec vitest <path-filter>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Integration tests
|
|
|
|
Integration tests exercise Gitea against a real database. They live in
|
|
`tests/integration/` and require [Git LFS](https://git-lfs.com/) to be installed.
|
|
The database is selected with `GITEA_TEST_DATABASE`; an empty value defaults to
|
|
SQLite, which needs no external service:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make test-integration
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Run a single integration test with the `#` selector:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make test-integration#TestName
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each run gets its own work directory under `tests/integration/` and random ports, so SQLite runs
|
|
can execute in parallel. Runs against other databases still share the database and object storage.
|
|
The work directory is removed after a passing run and kept after a failure.
|
|
|
|
If you hit errors such as a mismatched database version or SSH push failures, try a
|
|
clean rebuild first:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make clean build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Running against other databases
|
|
|
|
Set `GITEA_TEST_DATABASE` together with the matching `TEST_*` connection variables.
|
|
The commands below start a throwaway database container (press `Ctrl-C` to stop and
|
|
remove it) and then run the tests against it.
|
|
|
|
#### MySQL
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -e "MYSQL_DATABASE=test" -e "MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes" -p 3306:3306 --rm --name mysql mysql:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
GITEA_TEST_DATABASE=mysql TEST_MYSQL_HOST=localhost:3306 TEST_MYSQL_DBNAME=test TEST_MYSQL_USERNAME=root TEST_MYSQL_PASSWORD='' make test-integration
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### PostgreSQL
|
|
|
|
PostgreSQL tests also use a MinIO container for object storage:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -e "POSTGRES_DB=test" -e "POSTGRES_USER=postgres" -e "POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres" -p 5432:5432 --rm --name pgsql postgres:latest
|
|
docker run --rm -p 9000:9000 -e MINIO_ROOT_USER=123456 -e MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=12345678 --name minio bitnamilegacy/minio:2023.8.31
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
GITEA_TEST_DATABASE=pgsql TEST_MINIO_ENDPOINT=localhost:9000 TEST_PGSQL_HOST=localhost:5432 TEST_PGSQL_DBNAME=postgres TEST_PGSQL_USERNAME=postgres TEST_PGSQL_PASSWORD=postgres make test-integration
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### MSSQL
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -e "ACCEPT_EULA=Y" -e "MSSQL_PID=Standard" -e "SA_PASSWORD=MwantsaSecurePassword1" -p 1433:1433 --rm --name mssql microsoft/mssql-server-linux:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
GITEA_TEST_DATABASE=mssql TEST_MSSQL_HOST=localhost:1433 TEST_MSSQL_DBNAME=gitea_test TEST_MSSQL_USERNAME=sa TEST_MSSQL_PASSWORD=MwantsaSecurePassword1 make test-integration
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Running the database test workflow with Gitea Runner
|
|
|
|
The CI database test jobs can be run locally with
|
|
[Gitea Runner](https://gitea.com/gitea/runner). Running every job is
|
|
resource-intensive and not recommended:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
gitea-runner exec -W ./.github/workflows/pull-db-tests.yml --event=pull_request --default-actions-url="https://github.com" -i catthehacker/ubuntu:runner-latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
List the available job names, then run a single one:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
gitea-runner exec -W ./.github/workflows/pull-db-tests.yml --event=pull_request --default-actions-url="https://github.com" -i catthehacker/ubuntu:runner-latest -l
|
|
gitea-runner exec -W ./.github/workflows/pull-db-tests.yml --event=pull_request --default-actions-url="https://github.com" -i catthehacker/ubuntu:runner-latest -j <job_name>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Recorded API responses
|
|
|
|
Repository migration unit and integration tests replay API responses recorded under
|
|
`_mock_data/`, so they run offline. Setting the environment variables a test reads, usually
|
|
API credentials, makes it record from the live API instead. To re-record, delete the test's
|
|
`_mock_data` directory, run the test with those variables set, and update its assertions.
|
|
|
|
## End-to-end tests
|
|
|
|
End-to-end tests drive a running Gitea instance with [Playwright](https://playwright.dev/):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make test-e2e
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To run a single e2e test file, pass it via `GITEA_TEST_E2E_FLAGS`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
GITEA_TEST_E2E_FLAGS='<filepath>' make test-e2e
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Useful environment variables:
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Description |
|
|
| :--- | :--- |
|
|
| `GITEA_TEST_E2E_DEBUG` | When set, show the Gitea server output. |
|
|
| `GITEA_TEST_E2E_FLAGS` | Additional flags passed to Playwright, e.g. `--ui`. |
|
|
| `GITEA_TEST_E2E_TIMEOUT_FACTOR` | Timeout multiplier (default: 4 on CI, 1 locally). |
|
|
|
|
## Migration tests
|
|
|
|
If you change a database-persisted struct under `models/` you will usually need a
|
|
new migration in `modelmigration`. Run the migration tests with:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make test-migration
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Continuous integration
|
|
|
|
CI runs the unit tests, runs the integration tests against every supported database,
|
|
and tests migration from several recent Gitea versions. Please submit your pull
|
|
request with additional unit and integration tests as appropriate. Prefer unit tests
|
|
when the logic can be tested in isolation, and keep local integration and e2e tests
|
|
fast (aim for sub-2s runtime).
