Deleting test database in Vapor 3












5















I want to write some integration tests for Vapor 3 server and I need to have clean Postgre database each time I run my tests. How can I achieve this? It seems migrations isn't the right way to go as they've been running once if database doesn't exist yet.

Have a look at https://github.com/raywenderlich/vapor-til/tree/master/Tests



This requires a DB to be running before you run the tests, but it reverts all migrations at the start of each test run, which gives you a clean DB each time. (Specifically here)



There's also a docker-compose.yml in the root directory for spinning up a completely isolated test environment on Linux

  • I've inspected sources and have some concerns - isn't it extremely wasteful to run different instance of the Application (2 times in a row) before each test method? Why don't they use "override class func setUp()" instead?...

  • Running the commands (revert and prepare) require an application to boot up. When you provide the application a command it will exit upon completion, so if you do it the way above you don't have much choice for integration tests

I've found a solution that is less resource-intensive, then reverting all migrations every time.



RSpec has a configuration (use_transactional_fixtures) that allows wrapping every test in an SQL transaction. When testing is over it will rollback the transaction and in consequence revert all the changes that happened during testing. Relevant documentation is here.



We can implement a similar solution in Vapor. My example test looks like this.



final class VaporTests: XCTestCase {

var app: Application!

override func setUp() {
super.setUp()

app = try! Application.buildForTesting()
let conn = try! app.requestPooledConnection(to: .psql).wait()
try! conn.simpleQuery("BEGIN TRANSACTION").wait()
try! app.releasePooledConnection(conn, to: .psql)
}

override func tearDown() {
let conn = try! app.requestPooledConnection(to: .psql).wait()
try! conn.simpleQuery("ROLLBACK").wait()
try! app.releasePooledConnection(conn, to: .psql)

super.tearDown()
}

func testExample() throws {
let request = HTTPRequest(method: .GET, url: "my/endpoint/example")
let wrapper = Request(http: request, using: app)

let response = try ExampleController().example(wrapper).wait()

XCTAssertEqual(response, .ok)
}
}


To make sure that I don't encounter issues with concurrency I'm limiting database pool to 1 connection in the test application.



func configure(_ config: inout Config, _ env: inout Environment, _ services: inout Services) throws {
// ... other configurations

let poolConfig = DatabaseConnectionPoolConfig(maxConnections: 1)
services.register(poolConfig)
}
