Umbraco Acceptance Tests

You can watch a video following these instructions here and a longer UmbraCollab recording here. Make sure to use the latest recommended contribution branch rather than v10 that's mentioned in the video. Alternatively, follow along the instructions below.

Prerequisites

NodeJS 16+
A running installed Umbraco on url: https://localhost:44331 (Default development port)
- Install using a SqlServer/LocalDb as the tests execute too fast for Sqlite to handle.

Getting started

The tests are located in the project/folder as Umbraco.Tests.AcceptanceTests. Make sure you run npm ci & npx playwright install in that folder, or let your IDE do that.

The script will ask you to enter the username and password for a superadmin user of your Umbraco CMS.

Executing tests

There are two npm scripts that can be used to execute the test:

npm run test
- Executes the tests headless.
npm run ui
- Executes the tests in a browser handled by a playwright application.

In case of errors it is recommended to use await page.pause() so you can step through your test.

Executing single tests

If you wish to run a single test, which may be helpful when writing tests you can use the following command. As before, you need to run these tests in the 'tests/Umbraco.Tests.AcceptanceTest' folder.

npx playwright test <testname.ts>

For example to run the Login Test,

npx playwright test tests/DefaultConfig/Login/Login.spec.ts

Environment Configuration

The environment configuration is begin setup by the npm installation script. This results in the creation of this file: .env. This file is already added to .gitignore and can contain values that are different for each developer machine.

The file has the following content:

UMBRACO_USER_LOGIN=email for superadmin
UMBRACO_USER_PASSWORD=password for superadmin
URL=https://localhost:44331

You can change this if you like or run the config script to reset the values, type "npm run config" in your terminal.
