[mocks] Running tests without Mocks about pkgcloud HOT 4 CLOSED

Part of what you are looking for is in the README.md file. Steps 1 and 2 are probably missing from README.md and should be added. Step 3 is in the README.md.

1. Copy a provider config file from test/configs/mock to test/configs.
2. Fill in the credentials for the provider
3. run the test using vows

//Vows installed globally
$ vows --spec --isolate test///*-test.js

//Linux/Mac - Vows installed locally
$ ./node_modules/.bin/vows --spec --isolate test///*-test.js

//Windows - Vows installed locally:
$ node_modules.bin\vows.cmd --spec --isolate test///*-test.js

Note: If you only want to test one specific provider you can just list the one provider in test/config/providers.json. Otherwise, you will need to specify credentials in config files for all providers as the tests will all fail.

Note: Any config .json file in test/config is ignored by ,gitignore so your credentials will not be committed.

We should probably add an optional PROVIDER= option to the test command so you can easily specify what provider you want to test.

Yeah definitely there is no info about the point 1 and point 2 on Readme.

And about the PROVIDER= idea, that option should replace the list on test/config/providers.json ?? Using the file work fine for me.

Actually I was suggesting that if you specify a provider with PROVIDER= option it should override the providers listed in the providers file. It would be nice if we had a easy way to test one provider without having to alter the providers.json file.
