Using Testjour with Capistrano
I created the following capistrano recipe excerpt and loaded it in our main deploy file. We have our deploy separated between staging and production so naturally adding a testing deploy made sense. We can now run all our features in a distributed fashion using only:
cap testing deploy
To run with migrations we do:
cap testing deploy -s migrations=true
To run with migrations and less than a full test suite we do:
cap testing deploy -s migrations=true -s features=./features/subfeatures
This recipe excerpt requires a config/testjour.yml configuration file in the following format:
config/testjour.yml
master: testmaster.domain.tld
slaves: testslave1.domain.tld,testslave2.domain.tld,testslave3.domain.tld,testslave4.domain.tld,testslave5.domain.tld,testslave6.domain.tld,testslave7.domain.tld
repository: "ssh://user@testmaster.domain.tld/user/myapp.git"
master_user: user
root_path: /user
dbusername: masterdbusername
dbpassword: masterdbpassword
lib/testjour.rb
TestJour_config=Hash.new
TestJour_config.merge! YAML.load_file("config/testjour.yml") if File.exists?("config/testjour.yml")
task :testing do
role :app, testjour_master
role :web, testjour_master
role :db, testjour_master, :primary => true
set :application, "myapp"
set :repository, TestJour_config["repository"]
set :rails_env, 'test'
set :branch, get_branch
set :user, TestJour_config["master_user"]
set :deploy_to, "#{TestJour_config["root_path"]}/#{application}"
before :deploy, :role => :app do
`git push testjour #{get_branch}`
end
after :deploy, :role => :app do
begin
if migrations
run "cd #{current_path}; rake db:migrate:reset"
run "cd #{current_path}; mysqldump#{TestJour_config["dbusername"] ? " -u " + TestJour_config["dbusername"] : ""}#{TestJour_config["dbpassword"] ? " --password=" + TestJour_config["dbpassword"] : ""} -n -d myapp_development > #{shared_path}/development_structure.sql"
end
rescue
end
run "/bin/cp #{shared_path}/development_structure.sql #{release_path}/db/development_structure.sql"
run "cd #{current_path}; testjour #{get_slaves} --max-local-slaves=1 --create-mysql-db --mysql-db-name=myapp_test #{get_features}"
end
end
def get_branch
`git branch` =~ /^\*.(.*)/
$1
end
def testjour_master
TestJour_config["master"]
end
def get_features
begin
features
rescue
"./features"
end
end
def get_slaves
TestJour_config["slaves"].split(',').map{slave "--on=testjour://#{slave}/#{TestJour_config['root_path']}/#{application}/current/ "}.to_s.strip if TestJour_config["slaves"]
end
