Automation CLI
This package contains a command line application that can be used to run automation tests within the OpenFin ecosystem.
The CLI is run by providing the location of the OpenFin application manifest and a set of test files.
During the execution of the CLI it will retrieve the required OpenFin runtimes as well as the correct version of the chromedriver to use with the runtime.
The CLI can also run in offline more where the OpenFin runtimes and chromedriver are already expected to be available locally. An offline-versions.json file is also expected to exist in the storage folder to define the real version numbers for labelled runtimes (see example below)
Currently Jasmine, Mocha and Jest are provided as in-built test runners.
When the test frameworks run they will automatically determine if your tests are written with JavaScript and TypeScript and behave accordingly.
The CLI process will exit with code 1 if any of the tests failed.
Installation
Run npm i @openfin/automation-cli.

--closeRuntime <mode> When to close OpenFin runtimes in the workflow (choices: "never", "start", "end", "both", default: "both")
--dos <file.json> Provide a custom DOS file to use when running tests
--screenshotFolder <path> The path to store any screen shots that have been taken (default: "./reports/screenshots/")
--verbosity <mode> What to display from the runner output (choices: "all", "none", "results", default: "all")
--hooks <file> A file which contains global setup and teardown hooks (default: "./automation-hooks.{js,ts}")
-h, --help display help for commandHelper packages
Any tests that you write can make use of two helper packages @openfin/automation-helpers and @openfin/automation-native which provide features to aid in interacting with OpenFin.
Example tests
There are JavaScript/TypeScript examples in the Workspace Starter repo
There are .NET examples in the C# Starter repo
CI Environments
The CLI can be used to run tests in a headless CI environment such as GitHub Actions, it requires a windows platform to be executed on.
Reporter config
To provide an additional reporter output for a test framework you can specify a reporter config file e.g. --reporter mocha.reporter.json. You must install the necessary npm package in the node_modules where you are running the tests from.
Some examples for each framework are.
Mocha
npm install mochawesome{
"reporter": "mochawesome",
"options": {
"reportDir": "./reports/mocha/",
"reportFilename": "report.html",
"html": true,
"json": false
}
}Jasmine
npm install jasmine-pretty-html-reporter{
"reporter": "Reporter",
"module": "jasmine-pretty-html-reporter",
"options": {
"path": "./reports/jasmine"
}
}Jest
npm install jest-html-reporters{
"reporter": "jest-html-reporters",
"options": {
"publicPath": "./reports/jest",
"filename": "report.html"
}
}Execution example
Assuming your manifest is already being served at http://localhost:8080/manifest.fin.json and your files are stored in ./tests.
of-automation http://localhost:8080/manifest.fin.json ./tests/**/*.spec.jsYou should see a summary similar to that shown below:
