# pgBackRest <br/> Regression, Unit, & Integration Testing
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
pgBackRest uses Docker to run tests and generate documentation. Docker's light-weight virualization provides the a good balance between proper OS emulation and performance (especially startup)
|
|
|
|
A `Vagrantfile` is provided that contains the complete configuration required to run pgBackRest tests and build documentation. If Vagrant is not suitable then the `Vagrantfile` still contains the configuration steps required to build a test system.
|
|
|
|
Note that this is not required for normal operation of pgBackRest.
|
|
|
|
## Testing
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to start testing pgBackRest is with the included `Vagrantfile`.
|
|
|
|
_Build Vagrant and Logon_:
|
|
```
|
|
cd test
|
|
vagrant up
|
|
vagrant ssh
|
|
```
|
|
The `vagrant up` command may take some time as a number of Docker containers must also be built. The `vagrant ssh` command automatically logs onto the VM.
|
|
|
|
_Run All Tests_:
|
|
```
|
|
/backrest/test/test.pl
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_Run Tests for a Specific OS_:
|
|
```
|
|
/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_Run Tests for a Specific OS and Module_:
|
|
```
|
|
/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_Run Tests for a Specific OS, Module, and Test_:
|
|
```
|
|
/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup --test=full
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_Run Tests for a Specific OS, Module, Test, and Run_:
|
|
```
|
|
/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup --test=full --run=1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_Run Tests for a Specific OS, Module, Test, and Process Max_:
|
|
```
|
|
/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup --test=full --process-max=4
|
|
```
|
|
Note that process-max is only applicable to the `synthetic` and `full` tests in the `backup` module.
|
|
|
|
_Run Tests for a Specific OS, Module, Test, Process Max, and Database Version_:
|
|
```
|
|
/backrest/test/test.pl --vm=co6 --module=backup --test=full --process-max=4 --db-version=9.4
|
|
```
|
|
Note that db-version is only applicable to the `full` test in the `backup` module.
|
|
|
|
_Iterate All Possible Test Combinations_:
|
|
```
|
|
/backrest/test/test.pl --dry-run
|
|
```
