The node-oracledb test suite uses 'mocha', 'should' and 'async'. See LICENSE for relevant licenses.

1. Preparations for running tests

See INSTALL for installation requirements and more details.

Note: the test suite is in GitHub. From node-oracledb 1.9.1 it is not included when installing from npmjs.com with npm install oracledb.

1.1 Create a working directory

mkdir <some-directory>
cd <some-directory>

1.2 Get node-oracledb from GitHub

Clone the project repository:

cd <some-directory>
git clone https://github.com/oracle/node-oracledb.git

1.3 Build

cd <some-directory>/node-oracledb
npm install

Running npm install within the node-oracledb/ directory will recompile oracledb and install all its dependent modules. These are listed in the devDependencies field of package.json file. Thus, 'mocha', 'async' and 'should' modules are installed by this command.

The test suite uses mocha, async and should.

1.4 Configure Database credentials

The database credentials for node-oracledb test suite are defined in dbconfig.js. They can also be set via environment variables shown in that file.

vi <some-directory>/node-oracledb/test/dbconfig.js
module.exports = {
  user          : process.env.NODE_ORACLEDB_USER || "hr",
  password      : process.env.NODE_ORACLEDB_PASSWORD || "welcome",
  connectString : process.env.NODE_ORACLEDB_CONNECTIONSTRING || "localhost/orcl",
  externalAuth  : process.env.NODE_ORACLEDB_EXTERNALAUTH ? true : false
};

To use external authentication, set the externalAuth property to true. Also make sure Oracle Database and the authentication service have been appropriately configured. See Documentation for External Authentication for more details.

Note: the test suite requires a schema with these privileges:

  • CREATE TABLE
  • CREATE SESSION
  • CREATE PROCEDURE
  • CREATE SEQUENCE
  • CREATE TRIGGER

1.5 Set NODE_PATH

export NODE_PATH=<some-directory>/node-oracledb/lib

2. Run tests

2.1 Run the complete test suite

2.1.1 On Unix-like systems

cd <some-directory>/node-oracledb
npm test

This calls the test script defined in oracledb/package.json.

2.1.2 On Windows

cd <some-directory>/node_oracledb
npm run-script testWindows

This calls the testWindows script defined in oracledb/package.json.

See npm scripts for more information about how npm handles the "scripts" field of package.json.

2.2 Run specified test(s)

cd <some-directory>/node_oracledb
<mocha-executable-file-directory>/mocha test/<test-names>

See mochajs.org for more information on running tests with mocha.

3. Add Tests

See CONTRIBUTING for general information on contribution requirements.

For easy correlation between results and test code, each test is assigned a number. The following number ranges have been chosen:

  • 1 - 20 are reserved for basic functional tests
  • 21 - 50 are reserved for data type supporting tests
  • 51 onwards are for other tests

4. Test Index

See test/list.txt for the list of existing tests.
