Wikiploy is a Node.js project and is configured to use VSCode for development.
Obviously you'll need Node.js. Node 14+ should be fine for Wikiploy alone, but Puppeteer has certain expectations and 16+ is a better choice. In any case, I would recommend using the latest LTS version of Node.
Note that you can use NVM-windows if you need multiple Node.js versions installed on Windows.
Run first npm i.
You might want to run npm up to update some scripts too.
Recomended global modules/tools:
npm install -g eslint
npm install -g mochaYou mostly need above if you will be using your shell (command line).
To run tests in your shell you can use npm: npm test. Or just run mocha.
Better yet install VSCode and the recommended extenstions. It will make things easier (especially for debugging tests).
In VSC, you should see a laboratory flask icon on the sidebar. From there, you can run individual tests or all at once. Note that you might need to reload the testing sidebar to see all tests, especially after adding new test files. To view output of individual tests use the testing sidebar. Navigate to the test and click on it.
You can also run (and debug) each test case directly from a test file. You might need to press reload in the sidebar if you don't see buttons to run and debug tests.
Step 1. Check and update versions.
# check mwn updates and update test assets
php ./check_up.php
# force update of assets
php ./check_up.php --force
# npm up
# npm testStep 2. Test MWN:
- Run
ploy_test_lite.js.
