Cannot run local tests

[kimsible]

It was an old issue, it's more a doc update for a docker-compose dev env with tests.

After following the documentation https://docs.joinpeertube.org/#/contribute-getting-started?id=develop.

I was able to adapt to test env with a docker database and redis containers.

1. Redis tools installation : sudo apt install redis-tools

2. docker-compose.yml dev configuration

version: "3.3"

services:

  postgres:
    image: postgres:10-alpine
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_DB=peertube_dev
      - POSTGRES_USER=peertube
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=peertube
    volumes:
      - ../PeerTube/docker-volume/db:/var/lib/postgresql/data
    ports:
      - "5432:5432"

  redis:
    image: redis:4-alpine
    volumes:
      - ../PeerTube/docker-volume/redis:/data
    ports:
      - "6379:6379"
    restart: "always"

networks:
  default:
    ipam:
      driver: default
      config:
      - subnet:  172.18.0.0/16

3. I run docker-compose up -d in docker compose dev directory

Federation tests

I created the 3 databases for test, still in docker compose dev directory :

docker-compose exec -T postgres createdb -U peertube -O peertube peertube_test{1,2,3}

Unit tests
in docker compose dev directory :

docker-compose exec -T postgres createuser -U peertube --createdb --superuser

In PeerTube directory, I run yarn install, npm run build -- --light-fr and npm run clean:server:test

• npm run test I got this error : Error: Module did not self-register. just after sass-lint
• for single test unit (npm run mocha -- --exit -r ts-node/register -r tsconfig-paths/register --bail server/tests/api/index.ts) :

TSError: ⨯ Unable to compile TypeScript:
server/helpers/express-utils.ts:121:10 - error TS2367: This condition will always return 'true' since the types 'string | string[] | ParsedQs | ParsedQs[]' and 'boolean' have no overlap.

121   return req.query.skipCount !== true

Node and NPM version
node v12.18.2
npm v6.14.5

Try TS_NODE_FILES=true npm run mocha -- --exit -r ts-node/register -r tsconfig-paths/register --bail server/tests/api/index.ts

Thanks the trick / config seems to work for the api tests but not for server/tests/index.ts in scripts/test.sh ran by npm test :

Error: Module did not self-register.

Edit: when setAccessTokensToServers is used in before() I get Error: expected 200 "OK", got 400 "Bad Request".

This also resolved my issue. Could we get the test script altered so it's the default? Or is there a significant behaviour difference?
