Testing

Functional

1. Run npm run dev:ci in one command line instance
2. In a second window run the below command, which runs tests for a specific integrationType
   • integrationType is one of: api, sdk, standalone, or webpage

CONFIG_PATH={locale}/{account} npm run test:func:snapshots -- --testPathPattern {integrationType}

Example

CONFIG_PATH=US/DEV_US_MULTI npm run test:func:snapshots -- --testPathPattern sdk

Alternatively, you can remove -- --testPathPattern {integrationType} and just run the following to run tests on an account for all integration types.

CONFIG_PATH={locale}/{account} npm run test:func:snapshots

Stage

For PayPal Internal Testing Only:

To test against PayPal's standard stage url, ensure that the demo page contains the following script, then run npm run dev:stage:

//Change the value of the url and add the script to the demo page (i.e. standalone.html)
<script>window.__TEST_ENV__ = "https://www.{PAYPAL_STAGE_URL_HERE}.com"</script>

If you are looking to run against an alternative environment, set the window.__TEST_ENV__ global to override the environment. Please note, this is only available in development environments.

//Change the value of the test environment
<script>window.__TEST_ENV__ = "https://www.te-test-env.com"</script>
