Hi, I’d like to only run the tests at discourse/plugins/poll/spec instead of the whole suite with bundle exec rake autospec p l=5 . How can I do that ? Ideally that would not be necessary if autospec detected changes made to plugins but my understanding is that it’s not yet able to do so. Thanks i…

# this runs just the specs in one file LOAD_PLUGINS=1 bundle exec rspec plugins/poll/spec/controllers/posts_controller_spec.rb # this runs all the specs of the poll plugin LOAD_PLUGINS=1 bundle exec rspec plugins/poll/spec

Not sure how it works with autospec since I’m running the specs manually most of the time. In order to run the plugin specs I’m always setting an environment variable in my IDE: LOAD_PLUGINS=1

[image] gerhard: I’m running the specs manually most of the time. Cool ! How would you manually run the spec of the poll plugin ? My IDE is the CLI :slight_smile:

I tried bundle exec rake autospec plugins/poll/spec/* but it shows Randomized with seed 8681 ………*… etc. which suggests it runs more than what I’d expect.

Another way to do it is via the rake task lib/tasks/plugin.rake master attempts += 1 retry bundle exec rake plugin:spec["poll"]

It works, thanks ! Where would be the most relevant topic for this information ? Or maybe there is a file in the git repository that should be updated ? The closest thing I found is the Beginner’s Guide to Creating Discourse Plugins Part 6: Acceptance Tests but it only covers part of the qunit tests…

[image] tgxworld: bundle exec rake plugin:spec[“poll”] This does not work for me but bundle exec rake plugin:spec poll does.

I proposed a change to the VAGRANT.md file . Not sure it’s right but… here it is anyway :wink:

The best way to do this is use autospec, it now works properly even with symlinked plugins bin/rake autospec Save plugin.rb file or plugin spec file and it will run. Be sure to run all plugin migrations with (which will happen magically if you run) RAILS_ENV=test bin/rake db:migrate

I was just having issues running plugin specs after running RAILS_ENV=test bin/rake db:migrate The migrations in the plugin I was testing, were not being run. I then ran: LOAD_PLUGINS=1 RAILS_ENV=test bundle exec rake db:migrate And now my plugin migrations are up! It is interesting that withou…

@sam added some magic here, so if you do RAILS_ENV=test /bin/rake db:migrate then it will automatically load plugins. But I think most people don’t use the bin stubs, so this issue keeps happening to different people. Maybe we need to embed the logic in the db:migrate rake task, rather than in the b…
