## Documentation | ||
If you have a documentation issue or pull request, please open a ticket or PR in the [documentation repository](https://github.com/prebid/prebid.github.io). | ||
|
||
## Testing Prebid.js | ||
Pull requests to the Prebid.js library will need to include tests with greater than 80% code coverage for any changed/added code before they can be merged into master. | ||
|
||
This section describes how to test code in the Prebid.js repository to help prepare your pull request. | ||
|
||
### Writing tests | ||
When you are adding code to Prebid.js, or modifying code that isn't covered by an existing test, test the code according to these guidelines: | ||
|
||
- If the module you are working on is already partially tested by a file within the `test` directory, add tests to that file | ||
- If the module does not have any tests, create a new test file | ||
- Group tests in a `describe` block | ||
- Test individual units of code within an `it` block | ||
- Within an `it` block, it may be helpful to use the "Arrange-Act-Assert" pattern | ||
- _Arrange_: set up necessary preconditions and inputs | ||
- e.g., creating objects, spies, etc. | ||
- _Act_: call or act on the unit under test | ||
- e.g., call the function you are testing with the parameters you set up | ||
- _Assert_: check that the expected results have occurred | ||
- e.g., use Chai assertions to check that the expected output is equal to the actual output | ||
- Test the public interface, not the internal implementation | ||
- If using global `pbjs` data structures in your test, take care to not completely overwrite them with your own data as that may affect other tests relying on those structures, e.g.: | ||
- **OK**: `pbjs._bidsRequested.push(bidderRequestObject);` | ||
- **NOT OK**: `pbjs._bidsRequested = [bidderRequestObject];` | ||
- If you need to check `adloader.loadScript` in a test, use a `stub` rather than a `spy`. `spy`s trigger a network call which can result in a `script error` and cause unrelated unit tests to fail. `stub`s will let you gather information about the `adloader.loadScript` call without affecting external resources | ||
- When writing tests you may use ES2015 syntax if desired | ||
|
||
### Running tests | ||
After checking out the Prebid.js repository and installing dev dependencies with `npm install`, use the following commands to run tests as you are working on code: | ||
|
||
- `gulp test` will run the test suite once (`npm test` is aliased to call `gulp test`) | ||
- `gulp serve` will run tests once and stay open, re-running tests whenever a file in the `src` or `test` directory is modified | ||
|
||
### Checking results and code coverage | ||
Check the test results using these guidelines: | ||
|
||
- Look at the total number of tests run, passed, and failed in the shell window. | ||
- If all tests are passing, great. | ||
- Otherwise look for errors printed in the console for a description of the failing test. | ||
- You may need to iterate on your code or tests until all tests are passing. | ||
- Make sure existing tests still pass. | ||
- There is a table below the testing report that shows code coverage percentage, for each file under the `src` directory. | ||
- Each time you run tests, a code coverage report is generated in `build/coverage/lcov/lcov-report/index.html`. | ||
- This is a static HTML page that you can load in your browser. | ||
- On that page, navigate to the file you are testing to see which lines are being tested. | ||
- Red indicates that a line isn't covered by a test. | ||
- Gray indicates a line that doesn't need coverage, such as a comment or blank line. | ||
- Green indicates a line that is covered by tests. | ||
- The code you have added or modified must have greater than 80% coverage to be accepted. | ||
|
||
### Examples | ||
Prebid.js already has lots of tests. Read them to see how Prebid.js is tested, and for inspiration: | ||
|
||
- Look in `test/spec` and its subdirectories | ||
- Tests for bidder adaptors are located in `test/spec/adapters` | ||
|
||
A test module might have the following general structure: | ||
|
||
```JavaScript | ||
// import or require modules necessary for the test, e.g.: | ||
import { expect } from 'chai'; // may prefer 'assert' in place of 'expect' | ||
import adapter from 'src/adapters/<adapter>'; | ||
|
||
describe('<Adapter>', () => { | ||
it('<description of unit or feature being tested>', () => { | ||
// Arrange - set up preconditions and inputs | ||
// Act - call or act on the code under test | ||
// Assert - use chai to check that expected results have occurred | ||
}); | ||
|
||
// Add other `describe` or `it` blocks as necessary | ||
}); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Resources | ||
The Prebid.js testing stack contains some of the following tools. It may be helpful to consult their documentation during the testing process. | ||

||
- [Mocha - test framework](http://mochajs.org/) | ||
- [Chai - BDD/TDD assertion library](http://chaijs.com/) | ||
- [Sinon - spy, stub, and mock library](http://sinonjs.org/) |
