If you don’t have an environment for running tests, read edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/contributing_to_ruby_on_rails.html#setting-up-a-development-environment
To run a specific test:
$ ruby -Itest test/cases/base_test.rb -n method_name
To run a set of tests:
$ ruby -Itest test/cases/base_test.rb
You can also run tests that depend upon a specific database backend. For example:
$ bundle exec rake test_sqlite3
Simply executing bundle exec rake test
is equivalent to the following:
$ bundle exec rake test_mysql $ bundle exec rake test_mysql2 $ bundle exec rake test_postgresql $ bundle exec rake test_sqlite3 $ bundle exec rake test_sqlite3_mem
There should be tests available for each database backend listed in the Config File. (the exact set of available tests is defined in Rakefile
)
If test/config.yml
is present, it’s parameters are obeyed. Otherwise, the parameters in test/config.example.yml
are obeyed.
You can override the connections:
parameter in either file using the ARCONN
(Active Record CONNection) environment variable:
$ ARCONN=postgresql ruby -Itest test/cases/base_test.rb
You can specify a custom location for the config file using the ARCONFIG
environment variable.
