Unit Testing

To make sure Nebula works as intended we have a suite of unit tests that can be run with the following command:

bash
make test

This will run pytest to test the python backend and vitest to test the javascript frontend.

Python Backend

The python backend tests are located in the nebula/tests/py directory.

To only run the python backend tests run the following command:

bash
make test-py

To learn how to write pytest tests see the pytest documentation.

Fixtures for pytest can be found in the nebula/tests/py/conftest.py file. This includes fixures for the database, flask app, and flask client as well as a client that has a logged in user or admin.

Javascript Frontend

The javascript frontend tests are located in the nebula/tests/js directory.

To only run the javascript frontend tests run the following command:

bash
make test-js
