Test system

Run all tests:

npm test

To run all tests on PostgreSQL as in the OurBigBook Web, first setup the PostgreSQL database similarly to local run as identical to deployment as possible:

createdb ourbigbook_cli
psql -c "CREATE ROLE ourbigbook_user with login password 'a'"
psql -c 'GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE ourbigbook_cli TO ourbigbook_user'
psql -c 'GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA public TO ourbigbook_user'
psql -c 'GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA public TO ourbigbook_user'
psql -c 'ALTER DATABASE ourbigbook_cli OWNER TO ourbigbook_user'

This got really annoying with PostgreSQL 15: stackoverflow.com/questions/67276391/why-am-i-getting-a-permission-denied-error-for-schema-public-on-pgadmin-4 And then run with:

npm run test-pg

List all tests:

node node_modules/mocha-list-tests/mocha-list-tests.js main.js

as per: stackoverflow.com/questions/41380137/list-all-mocha-tests-without-executing-them/58573986#58573986.

Run just one test by name:

npm test -- -g 'one paragraph'

or on PostgreSQL:

npm run test-pg -- -g 'one paragraph'

As per: stackoverflow.com/questions/10832031/how-to-run-a-single-test-with-mocha todo: what if the test name is a substring? You will want these Bash aliases:

npmtg() ( npm test -- -g "$*" )
npmtpg() ( npm run test-pg -- -g "$*" )

which allos you to just:

npmtg one paragraph
npmtpg one paragraph

Run all tests that don't start with cli::

npm test -- -g '^(?!cli:)'

This works because -g takes JavaScript regular expressions, so we can use negative lookahead, see also: stackoverflow.com/questions/26908288/with-mocha-how-do-i-run-all-tests-that-dont-have-slow-in-the-name
