Testing

Some of Sibyl's tests connect to the database and expect certain objects to exist in it and certain privileges granted:

  • At least the HR demo schema should be installed.
  • While there is no need to install other demo schemas at least MEDIA_DIR should be created (see $ORACLE_HOME/demo/schema/mk_dir.sql) and point to the directory with demo files. The latter can be found in product_media in the db-sample-schemas.zip.
  • Some of the LOB tests need text files with the the expected content. Those can be found in etc/media and copied into MEDIA_DIR.
  • A test user should be created. That user needs access to the HR schema and to the MEDIA_DIR directory. See etc/create_sandbox.sql for an example of how it can be accomplished.
  • The test user needs SELECT access to V$SESSION as some tests use it for validation.
GRANT SELECT ON V_$SESSION TO sibyl;
  • Tests that connect to the database use environment variables - DBNAME, DBUSER and DBPASS - to identify the database, user and password respectively. These variables should be set before executing cargo test.
