# HoneyDue iOS Tests — How it works
|
||||
|
||||
Two test targets:
|
||||
|
||||
| Target | Kind | What it covers | Speed |
|
||||
|--------|------|----------------|-------|
|
||||
| **HoneyDueUITests** | XCUITest | Drives the real app via accessibility IDs. Organized by domain. | slow (per-test app launch + account) |
|
||||
| **HoneyDueAPITests** | standalone unit-test | Pure-API/contract tests (no UI, no app launch). | seconds |
|
||||
|
||||
## Running
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd iosApp
|
||||
|
||||
# Full run: Smoke gate -> Seed -> API -> Parallel UI (8 workers) -> Sweep
|
||||
./run_ui_tests.sh
|
||||
|
||||
# Variants
|
||||
./run_ui_tests.sh "iPhone Air" 6 # device + worker count
|
||||
./run_ui_tests.sh --smoke # just the smoke gate
|
||||
./run_ui_tests.sh --only-api # just the fast API target
|
||||
./run_ui_tests.sh --only-parallel # just the UI suites
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The parallel phase runs the **whole UI target minus** the four phase-managed
|
||||
suites (`SmokeUITests`, `AppLaunchUITests`, `AAA_SeedTests`,
|
||||
`SuiteZZ_CleanupTests`) via `-skip-testing`. **New suites are picked up
|
||||
automatically** — there is no hand-maintained include list to forget to update.
|
||||
|
||||
## Per-test account isolation (the core idea)
|
||||
|
||||
Every UI test that needs to be logged in subclasses `AuthenticatedUITestCase`,
|
||||
which in `setUp`:
|
||||
|
||||
1. mints a **unique, pre-verified Kratos identity** —
|
||||
`uit_<domain>_<uuid>@test.honeydue.local` (see `Core/Fixtures/TestAccount.swift`),
|
||||
2. logs the app in as that account,
|
||||
3. exposes `session` / `cleaner` / `account` for seeding under its **own** token,
|
||||
|
||||
and in `tearDown` calls `account.delete()`, which **cascades all of the
|
||||
account's data and clears the Kratos identity** in one call.
|
||||
|
||||
No test shares state with any other, so suites run in parallel at high worker
|
||||
counts with zero data races. (This replaced the old shared-`testuser` model
|
||||
that capped the suite at 2 workers and forced Suite6 to run isolated.)
|
||||
|
||||
### Seeding data the UI must SEE
|
||||
|
||||
A fresh account is **empty at login**. Anything you seed via API *after* login
|
||||
is invisible to the app until a manual refresh. So:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Creating** a thing through the UI → no setup needed (but note: task and
|
||||
document creation are gated on a residence existing — set
|
||||
`override var requiresResidence: Bool { true }`, which seeds one *before*
|
||||
login and exposes it as `seededResidence`).
|
||||
- **Viewing / editing / deleting an existing** thing → seed it **before login**:
|
||||
|
||||
```swift
|
||||
override func seedAccountPreconditions(_ account: TestAccount) {
|
||||
super.seedAccountPreconditions(account) // seeds seededResidence if requiresResidence
|
||||
let r = seededResidence ?? account.seedResidence()
|
||||
myTask = account.seedTask(residenceId: r.id, title: "Edit me")
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Adding a suite
|
||||
|
||||
1. Pick the domain folder (`Task/`, `Residence/`, …). The folder is an Xcode
|
||||
synchronized group, so a new `.swift` file is compiled into the target
|
||||
automatically — no `.pbxproj` editing.
|
||||
2. Name it `<Domain><Aspect>UITests`; subclass `BaseUITestCase` (logged-out
|
||||
surface: login/registration/onboarding) or `AuthenticatedUITestCase`
|
||||
(logged-in feature work).
|
||||
3. Use accessibility IDs from `iosApp/Helpers/AccessibilityIdentifiers.swift`
|
||||
(shared with the app — the single source of truth).
|
||||
4. It runs automatically in the parallel phase. Done.
|
||||
|
||||
For a **pure-API** test (no UI): add it to `HoneyDueAPITests/` instead — it'll
|
||||
run in the fast API phase.
|
||||
|
||||
## Known trade-off
|
||||
|
||||
Per-test account creation costs ~1–2s of setup (Kratos create + login). For a
|
||||
big suite that adds up; if a full run drags, the planned mitigation is a
|
||||
recycled account pool keyed by worker id. Correctness-first today.
