lxl_api_tests

This is a collection of integration tests for the LibrisXL API.

Dependencies

libssl-dev

Configuration

We use environment variables to configure which system to run the tests against as well as which system to use for authorization. The following variables need to be set before executing the tests:

• LXLTESTING_LOGIN_URL - URL to the oauth server e.g. https://login.libris.kb.se or a local xl_auth instance.
• LXLTESTING_USERNAME and LXLTESTING_PASSWORD - user credentials for the oauth server.
• LXLTESTING_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID - client ID for an oauth client that is configured to redirect to the system under test.
• LXLTESTING_ROOT_URL - path to the Libris XL rest API, defaults to http://libris.kb.se.localhost:5000. To be able to run without https against e.g. localhost, set: export OAUTHLIB_INSECURE_TRANSPORT=1

Running

# Install dependencies
$ virtualenv -p python3 .venv && source .venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements.txt
# Run the tests
$ LXLTESTING_LOGIN_URL=https://some.host LXLTESTING_USERNAME=username \
      LXLTESTING_PASSWORD=password LXLTESTING_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID=client-id pytest

Environment variables can also be kept in a run configuration for this project if running the tests in an IDE.
