Ken's integration test for SolrSearch with test Solr server #86

Closed kenprice closed 8 years ago

kenprice commented 8 years ago

Set of integration tests that verifies that SolrSearch's query plays well with an actual Solr server.

Test for:
- query should return exactly one result for some keyword unique to exactly one document.
- query should return no results for empty list of search terms.
- query should return multiple results for keywords common to more than one document.
New entry for config.conf, TestSolrApiUrl. Put the URL to your Solr test server here. README.md updated with missing info about config.
Modify travis.yml so config.conf gets written to with the URL to our Solr test server. Jillian's server URL is hard-coded in the YAML file. Sorry :( Maybe we can pull this URL from environment variables? Can we set custom env vars in Travis outside the YAML file?

Just a quick question, are there steps to set up a solr server documented anywhere?

kenprice commented 8 years ago

@idmontie Yes, in this wiki entry I detail how the Solr test server should be set up. However! The actual test data to be committed to the Solr core isn't in the wiki. I have a script locally to repeatedly curl Jillian's test server to populate it with some docs. I will need to think of a way to easily reproduce the state of the test server.

Great thanks @kenprice. One thing you can do is just add that sort script to a new folder at the root of the project. Maybe something like /setup/solr-setup.sh or something.

@idmontie If everything else is ok, can you merge & close? This way there's at least one integration test in develop. I can have the setup and test data stuff in my next PR.

We can set custom variables in travis-ci however I think you need admin rights for the repo to do it. I personally think its fine for the default/example config to work in travis. Yeah we can merge this one in and wait to add the solr-setup.sh stuff in another PR.
