Are these tests for the 'core' module? Where are the existing tests located? I have seen some tests based on selenium which is for front end
It's all under tests
. test_frontend
uses selenium, the other two test code within core
. The tests described in the issue would be a bit like test_steps
but more targeted.
BTW the 'backend' used to be a Django server, now it just refers to core
which runs in the browser in Pyodide. But you shouldn't need to know anything about Pyodide to write and run these kinds of tests, regular 'local' Python and pytest should work.
The tests mostly cover the golden paths, i.e. users getting steps right or triggering a message step. There's lots of untested code. It can be found pretty easily by running tests with coverage. Some stuff is tested by test_frontend but that's slow and more difficult to measure coverage for so we should have pure Python tests for it. I'm particularly interested in the edge cases of bad code submissions from users, e.g:
ExerciseStep
in various ways, e.g. writing a solution that satisfies your own sample inputs but not the other tests.return dict(message='...')
instead of aMessageStep
. These tests would be specific to such steps.Disallowed
