Testing pods interaction

[Sherman Mendelsohn]

Hi!

I am beginner in cucumber testing and can't understand one thing. How
are you testing interaction between the pods?

Are you implement commands like this:
ruby
`cd ../`
`cp -r diaspora diaspora2`
`cd diaspora2`
`rails s -p 3001`
#here will be testing action.
`rails stop`
`cd ..`
`rm -r diaspora2`
`cd diaspora`

Or you do something more interesting?

I can't find some useful help for this.

[Sherman Mendelsohn]

Bump!

This is really very important for me.

Can anybody help? Please!

I don't think we have cucumber features right now that spin up two
Diaspora pods and test interaction between them.

We do have a cucumber feature that tests our oauth setup
(features/oauth.feature) by spinning up an external app called
Chubbies that uses the Diaspora API. You can look at
features/step_definitions/oauth_steps.rb for more info on how that
happens. The code for the external application is at spec/chubbies.

Sarah, thanks, your information is helpful.

But some things are difficult for a while.

1. Where are you define these methods:
Chubbies.kill
Chubbies.run
Chubbies.running?

2. There aren't tests about send a message to chubby, get they
friends, et.c.

Cheers

I'm not sure where those are defined. I'd just grep through the code for them. This cucumber feature tests that the app can connect over distributed oauth and post to a user's account. If you'd like to write tests that spin up more than one server, have a look.
