Introduction

Provides a Dockerfile that contains the minimal dependencies to execute unit tests of Hyperledger Indy Node.

Benefits

• No need to bother about the Python version installed on local machine.
• No need to include additional package repositories required to retrieve required libraries.
• Executes arbitrary pytest unit tests on local code base.

Getting Started

1. Build Docker image
2. Configuration setting
3. Execute tests

Build Docker image

1. Install Docker

2. Open a shell, change to the build folder and execute the following command:

   docker build .

   This creates an unnamed image an returns the image ID.

3. You can also name (and tag) the image, e.g.

   docker build -t my-test-container:latest .

Configuration settings

Before you can execute test on the 'indy-node'code, you have at least to set the following environment variables:

INDY_NODE_PATH - Path to the root of 'indy-node' folder (must resolve to an absolute path)

DOCKER_IMAGE Tag or ID of the Docker image you built in the first step

Optionally, you can also specify the TEST_PATH as an environment variable (useful if you want the execute the same tests over and over again).

TEST PATH - Path to test folder, relative to INDY_NODE_PATH.

Execute tests

1. Execute the script run_docker.sh located in the run folder.
2. The script provides the following configuration options:

   -h Prints usage information

   -p INDY_PLENUM_PATH Installs Indy Plenum from specified path (must resolve to absolute path)

   -v Activates verbose mode

   TEST_PATH Path to test folder, takes precedence over the respective environment variable
