Vaadin TestBench is both a unit testing tool and an integration testing tool.
The unit testing tool does not rely on a browser, so its tests run very fast. Because these tests do not run a browser, the browser's Javascript is not available.
The integration testing tool is built on Selenium and is used for automated user interface testing of web applications on multiple platforms and browsers.
Choosing testing tools optimized for Vaadin UI testing and supported by Vaadin provides you with the best integration and upward compatibility with the Vaadin framework.
Official releases of this add-on are available at https://vaadin.com/directory/component/vaadin-testbench.
git clone https://github.com/vaadin/testbench.git
cd testbench
mvn clean install
mvn test
JUnit 4 tests should extend ParallelTest if they are to be run in multiple browser configurations. For each browser configuration, a WebDriver is properly created with the desired browser configuration.
An application server must be running in order to run the integration tests. The following examples use Jetty for that purpose.
The Maven project is configured to automatically start and stop Jetty when you run the integration tests.
cd vaadin-testbench-integration-tests
mvn -P validation verify
cd vaadin-testbench-integration-tests-junit5
mvn -P validation verify
If instead of running the tests with all the configured browsers you want to run with only one headless Chrome browser and limit the parallelism to 8, use
cd vaadin-testbench-integration-tests
mvn -P validation verify -Dcom.vaadin.testbench.Parameters.runLocally=chrome -Dcom.vaadin.testbench.Parameters.headless=true -Dcom.vaadin.testbench.Parameters.testsInParallel=8
cd vaadin-testbench-integration-tests-junit5
mvn -P validation verify -Dcom.vaadin.testbench.Parameters.runLocally=chrome -Dcom.vaadin.testbench.Parameters.headless=true -Dcom.vaadin.testbench.Parameters.testsInParallel=8
Alternately, you can manually run Jetty (and leave it running) and then individually run integration tests or groups of integration tests within your IDE.
To run Jetty, you can either do it from the command line
cd vaadin-testbench-integration-tests
mvn jetty:run
(Jetty will continue to run. When you want to stop it, press Ctrl-C on the command line where Jetty is running.)
or you can create and run a Maven "Run/Debug Configuration" with jetty:run as the goal.
By default, all the configured browsers with a parallelism of 50 will run when you run your integration tests. If instead you want to run with only one headless Chrome browser and limit the parallelism to 8, edit the configuration template for JUnit and set its "VM options" to
-ea -Dcom.vaadin.testbench.Parameters.runLocally=chrome -Dcom.vaadin.testbench.Parameters.headless=true -Dcom.vaadin.testbench.Parameters.testsInParallel=8
Now when you run integration tests in the IDE, it will use the template defaults.
As this template change is global to all your projects, remember to restore the JUnit configuration template "VM options" when you no longer need them.
Because integration tests can take a long time to run as each test launches the application in multiple browsers, you can configure your tests to run in Sauce Labs. See details at SauceLabs and GitHub.
