Open Source Elixir Software Testing Tools for Linux

Wallaby helps you test your web applications by simulating realistic user interactions. By default, it runs each test case concurrently and manages browsers for you. Here's an example test for a simple Todo application. Because Wallaby manages multiple browsers for you, it's possible to test several users interacting with a page simultaneously. Read on to see what else Wallaby can do or check out the Official Documentation. Wallaby also requires bash to be installed. Generally, bash is widely available, but it does not come pre-installed on Alpine Linux. If you're testing a Phoenix application with Ecto and a database that supports sandbox mode, you can enable concurrent testing by adding the Phoenix.Ecto.SQL.Sandbox plug to your Endpoint. It's important that this is at the top of endpoint.ex before any other plugs.

ExMachina is part of the thoughtbot Elixir family of projects. ExMachina makes it easy to create test data and associations. It works great with Ecto, but is configurable to work with any persistence library. And start the ExMachina application. For most projects (such as Phoenix apps) this will mean adding :ex_machina to the list of applications in mix.exs. You can skip this step if you are using Elixir 1.4 or later. Add your factory module inside test/support so that it is only compiled in the test environment. build/2 is a function call. As such, it gets evaluated immediately. By default, ExMachina will merge the attributes you pass into build/insert into your factory. But if you want full control of your attributes, you can define your factory as accepting one argument, the attributes being passed into your factory.
