Plugin Integration Test

[boomzilla]

Has anyone done any automated integration tests with NodeBB and a plugin?

[boomzilla]

I figured out how to make this happen:

GitHub - boomzillawtf/nodebb-plugin-upvote-notifications: Users can customize how they are notified about upvotes to their posts.

Users can customize how they are notified about upvotes to their posts. - boomzillawtf/nodebb-plugin-upvote-notifications

GitHub (github.com)

What I had to do:

• Dev Dependencies:
  • bcryptjs ~2.3.0
  • nconf ~0.8.2
  • npm link nodebb as a module for my plugin
  • Put bcrypt.js from the nodebb root directory into the root directory for my plugin (for user password hashing when creating users in the tests)
• Plugin set up to optionally accept nodebb modules from the test code instead of normal module.parent.require method.

@boomzilla said in Plugin Integration Test:

automated integration tests

I have no idea what this even means, but I'm glad you got it working

@julian It means that I can test my plugin with nodebb actually firing hooks for it.
