Project Testing Documentation

Welcome to the project testing documentation. This guide provides comprehensive information about testing practices, conventions, and guidelines for your multi-platform project.

Overview

This testing strategy supports multi-platform architectures with:

  • Core Tests: Business logic tests that verify core functionality
  • Platform-Specific Tests: Platform-specific implementation tests
  • UI Tests: Automated UI testing for each platform
  • Integration Tests: End-to-end testing with external services

Note: For specific technology stacks (e.g., Kotlin Multiplatform), see relevant guides in docs/modules/

Documentation Structure

Core Testing Guides

Quick Start

Running Tests Locally

# Example commands - adapt to your build system and platform

# Run all tests
./run-tests.sh --all

# Run platform-specific tests
./run-tests.sh --platform=<platform-name>

# Run specific test suite
./run-tests.sh --suite=unit
./run-tests.sh --suite=integration
./run-tests.sh --suite=ui

See platform-specific documentation for detailed test commands.

Test Organization

Directory Structure

A typical multi-platform project structure:

your-project/
├── core/                      # Core business logic
│   └── tests/                 # Core tests
├── platform-a/                # Platform A implementation
│   ├── tests/                 # Platform A unit tests
│   └── ui-tests/              # Platform A UI tests
└── platform-b/                # Platform B implementation
    ├── tests/                 # Platform B unit tests
    └── ui-tests/              # Platform B UI tests

Adapt this structure to your specific project needs and technology stack.

Testing Principles

1. Test Pyramid

We follow the test pyramid approach:

  • Unit Tests (70%): Fast, isolated tests for individual components
  • Integration Tests (20%): Tests for component interactions
  • UI Tests (10%): End-to-end user flow tests

2. Platform Parity

Ensure equivalent test coverage across platforms:

  • Shared business logic tested in common tests
  • Platform-specific implementations tested separately
  • UI behaviors tested on both iOS and Android

3. Test Naming Conventions

Use descriptive test names that clearly indicate:

  • What is being tested
  • Under what conditions
  • What the expected outcome is

Example patterns:

  • testFunctionName_WhenCondition_ExpectedBehavior
  • function_shouldBehavior_whenCondition
  • given_when_then format

Consult your language/framework conventions for specific naming guidelines.

4. Test Independence

  • Each test should be independent and not rely on other tests
  • Use proper setup and teardown methods
  • Avoid shared mutable state between tests

Continuous Integration

Our CI/CD pipeline runs tests automatically:

  1. Pull Request Checks

    • All unit tests must pass
    • Code coverage must meet minimum thresholds
    • UI tests run on key user flows

  2. Main Branch Protection

    • No direct commits to main
    • All tests must pass before merge
    • Coverage reports generated automatically

Getting Help

  • Check the Troubleshooting Guide for common issues
  • Review platform-specific guides for detailed instructions
  • Consult the example tests in the codebase

Contributing

When adding new features:

  1. Write tests first (TDD approach encouraged)
  2. Ensure tests pass on all platforms
  3. Update documentation if testing approach changes
  4. Include tests in your pull request
