Running the unit tests

Gradle creates temporary directories for all the unit tests. If you wish to clean them first you can use gradle clean. You then have the following options:

gradle test # Runs all unit tests except slow tests
gradle unitTests # Runs all unit tests
gradle epicsTests # Runs all integration tests that require only an epics installation
gradle integrationTests # Runs all tests that require a tomcat installation and optionally an epics installation
gradle flakyTests # Runs all tests that can fail due to system resources
gradle allTests # Runs all tests (not recommended)

Or run individual tests with:

gradle test -tests PolicyExecutionTest
gradle integrationTests --tests PvaGetArchivedPVsTest --info

If you cancel an integrationTest early, or it gets stuck for some reason it’s possible to kill any tomcats running with

gradle shutdownAllTomcats

If you wish to run the current development version locally for testing, it’s possible to use:

gradle testRun
