April 7, 2023 API Testing

Update from SolDevelo

• API Testing - status across BBs

• GovStack testing

• App:

  • MVP of the testing app finished

• Tests:

  • Messaging BB API test harness - 2 waiting for review, 1 in progress, 1 more in to do

Further priorities

• API Testing Roadmap

• Messaging BB API

• Digital Registries BB APIs improvements

• New APIs from Registration BB

• Adding improvements to the testing app

  • This needs to include the version of both the software and the BB. Test results have to be specific to both versions.

  • Link to actual test run and the associated logs

    • Link to run on circle, at least. (assuming above is too expensive)

  • Adding info why the test is failing

  • Highlight the test in the table for which we are viewing the tests details

• USCT Use Case Registration Step - Review meeting on Tuesday

Embedded objects in Gherkin files

• SKD-14: Test Automation: When there are objects or arrays to be passed in API calls, there is some issue that the test is not proceeding, need to fix this. requesting sreepathy and Domnicka to resolve this on urgent basisIn Progress

• We should deal with embedded objects in JS/Python

• We should avoid complicated structures in Gherkin files if we can to keep it simple

Versioning in testing app

• We need to figure out how do we want to pass the version

• We can add version to metadata as we agreed before to add name

• We can get BB version from github

  • We might need one more layer of hierarchy in BBs repos for testing so there are different folders for different versions

  • Then a new product can test the compliance against a specific version of a BB

• We also need to present the information about the version properly in the testing app

  • We need to update UI to include the version for both BB and software so user can easily indicate it
