[FEATURE] Provide support for running the `TDVT` in Linux environments #782

Closed chiaradiamarcelo closed 1 year ago

chiaradiamarcelo commented 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm trying to automate all tests related for a connector in a Linux environment, meaning the manual tests described in https://tableau.github.io/connector-plugin-sdk/docs/manual-test and the execution of the TDVT. The execution of the TDVT requires the tabquerytool.exe tool, that at the moment comes only with the Tableau Desktop installation and it seems to be only available for Windows and not for Linux.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to be able to execute the TDVT in a Linux environment, thus an equivalent of the tabquerytool.exe should be available for Linux, ideally delivered with Tableau Server for Linux.

Describe alternatives you've considered I have considered starting a Windows VM in Linux, but it's totally impractical.

At this time we do not have a way to distribute tabquerytool on Linux for partners. We are exploring ways to do this in future releases, but do not currently have a specific release target. This item will be updated when we have any future TDVT on Linux details to share.

Hi any updates on this? Interested to also automate TDVT on linux machine. We are keen on adding our data source for Tableau.

Or is there a way around this where Tableau team can help?

Hi, I am a new PM for the Connector SDK and I am looking at our feature backlog and getting things prioritized. I would appreciate if you can give your feedback for our product via this form. It should only take 2-5 mins but would be super valuable to our team. Thanks in advance!! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfs5OreNsxnva_uTO2vTxnoF-oq-37tEdrUpirUKwqud2Ib7g/viewform?usp=sf_link

Hi... Wanted to check if there are any updates on this? I have the Tableau Server running on Linux. But still cannot find any instructions on running TDVT on it.

Please look at this documentation on running the TDVT test on Linux using Tableau server.

Closed this as resolved.
