# Revised Integration Tests

This directory builds a Docker image for Druid, then uses that image, along
with test configuration to run tests. This version greatly evolves the
integration tests from the earlier form. See the [History](docs/history.md)
section for details.

## Shortcuts

List of the most common commands once you're familiar with the framework.
If you are new to the framework, see [Quickstart](docs/quickstart.md) for
an explanation.

### Build Druid

To make the text a bit simpler, define a variable for the standard settings:

```bash
export MAVEN_IGNORE=-P skip-static-checks,skip-tests -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true

```bash
mvn clean package -P dist $MAVEN_IGNORE -T1.0C
```

### Build the Test Image

```bash
cd $DRUID_DEV/integration-tests-ex/image
mvn install -P test-image $MAVEN_IGNORE
```

### Run an IT from the Command Line

```bash
mvn verify -P IT-<category> -pl :druid-it-cases $MAVEN_IGNORE
```

Where `<category>` is one of the test categories.

Or

```bash
cd $DRUID_DEV/integration-tests-ex/cases
mvn verify -P skip-static-checks,docker-tests,IT-<category> \
    -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true -DskipUTs=true \
    -pl :druid-it-cases
```

### Run an IT from the IDE

Start the cluster:

```bash
cd $DRUID_DEV/integration-tests-ex/cases
./cluster.sh up <category>
```

Where `<category>` is one of the test categories. Then launch the
test as a JUnit test.

## Goals

The goal of the present version is to simplify development.

* Speed up the Druid test image build by avoiding download of
  dependencies. (Instead, any such dependencies are managed by
  Maven and reside in the local build cache.)
* Use official images for dependencies to avoid the need to
  download, install, and manage those dependencies.
* Make it is easy to manually build the image, launch
  a cluster, and run a test against the cluster.
* Convert tests to JUnit so that they will easily run in your
  favorite IDE, just like other Druid tests.
* Use the actual Druid build from `distribution` so we know
  what is tested.
* Leverage, don't fight, Maven.
* Run the integration tests easily on a typical development machine.

By meeting these goals, you can quickly:

* Build the Druid distribution.
* Build the Druid image. (< 1 minute)
* Launch the cluster for the particular test. (a few seconds)
* Run the test any number of times in your debugger.
* Clean up the test artifacts.

The result is that the fastest path to develop a Druid patch or
feature is:

* Create a normal unit test and run it to verify your code.
* Create an integration test that double-checks the code in
  a live cluster.
