five-bells-integration-test-loader

Purpose

The Five Bells integration tests will test a module against the latest versions of each other module. If it is testing the branch of a module, it will prefer branches of the same name for other modules.

However, the version of the integration tests themselves are hard-coded in each module's package.json file.

That means that when a new component requires a change to the integration tests, the integration test version must be bumped in every single component. It also means that we often need to "[skip tests]" when making changes to the tests themselves.

This module fixes this problem by applying the same rules we apply to the modules under test to the integration tests themselves. In other words, it will automatically test using the latest master of the integration tests or using a branch of the same name.

Usage

Adding tests to a module

If a module should be tested as part of the integration tests, it needs to depend on this loader:

npm install --save-dev five-bells-integration-test-loader

And it needs to specify which integration test module to use in its package.json:

{
  "name": "foo",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "config": {
    "integration-test-loader": {
      "module": "five-bells-integration-test",
      "repo": "interledgerjs/five-bells-integration-test"
    }
  }
}
