# Testing
## Prerequisites
You need to ensure you have the following tools installed:
* [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) 19.03 or higher (API version 1.40)
* [GNU make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/)
* [Go](https://golang.org/) - only needed for running the tests
## Running the tests
There are two main sets of tests:
1. Unit tests, which are run during a build
2. Docker tests, which test a complete Docker image, using the Docker API
### Running the Docker tests
The Docker tests can be run locally on a machine with Docker. For example:
```
make devserver
make advancedserver
```
You can specify the image to use directly by using the `MQ_IMAGE_ADVANCEDSERVER` or `MQ_IMAGE_DEVSERVER` variables, for example:
```
MQ_IMAGE_ADVANCEDSERVER=ibm-mqadvanced-server:9.3.1.0-amd64 make test-advancedserver
```
You can pass parameters to `go test` with an environment variable. For example, to run the "TestGoldenPath" test, run the following command:
```
TEST_OPTS_DOCKER="-run TestGoldenPath" make test-advancedserver
```
You can also use the same environment variables you specified when [building](./building), for example, the following will try and test an image called `ibm-mqadvanced-server:9.2.0.0-amd64`:
```
MQ_VERSION=9.2.0.0 make test-advancedserver
```
### Running the Docker tests with code coverage
You can produce code coverage results from the Docker tests by running the following:
```
make build-advancedserver-cover
make test-advancedserver-cover
```
In order to generate code coverage metrics from the Docker tests, the build step creates a new Docker image with an instrumented version of the code. Each test is then run individually, producing a coverage report each under `test/docker/coverage/`. These individual reports are then combined. The combined report is written to the `coverage` directory.
