Run tests with Docker

If you want to skip the installation of AltWalker you could use one of our docker images.

Create a Dockerfile for your project

To use altwalker with docker add the following Dockerfile in the root of your project.

Dockerfile
FROM altwalker/altwalker:latest

COPY . /test-project
WORKDIR  /test-project

RUN touch requirements.txt
RUN python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

# If you have other dependencies you can install them here.

You can then build and run the Docker image:

$ docker build -t my-tests .
$ docker run -it my-tests altwalker online [...]

Example:

$ docker build -t my-tests .
$ docker run -it my-tests altwalker \
    online tests -m models/default.json "random(vertex_coverage(100))"

Run your tests as a script

For many projects you may find it inconvenient to write a complete Dockerfile. In such cases, you can run you tests as a script by using the AltWalker Docker image directly:

$ docker run -it -v "$(pwd):/test-project" -w "/test-project" altwalker/altwalker:latest \
    /bin/bash -c 'python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt && altwalker online [...]'

If you don’t have any python dependencies you can remove the python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt.

$ docker run -it -v "$(pwd):/test-project" -w "/test-project" altwalker/altwalker:latest \
   altwalker online [...]

Example:

$ docker run -it -v "$(pwd):/test-project" -w "/test-project" altwalker/altwalker:latest \
    /bin/bash -c 'python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt && altwalker online tests -m models/default.json "random(vertex_coverage(100))"'
