# Grails Functional Test Suite v2

New version of the functional test suite for Grails based on Gradle, Spock and Geb.

Tests are found within the src/test/groovy directory.

A basic test looks like:

	class RunAppSpec extends BaseSpec {

	    void "Test run-app starts correctly"() {

	        given:"A new project"

	            grails {

	                createApp "test"

	                runApp()

	            }

            

	        when:"The home page is requested"

	            go ""

	        then:"The Grails welcome page is shown"

	            title == "Welcome to Grails"

	    }

	}

	

The above example creates a new project and tests it, deleting it on completion. To test an existing project you can instead use BaseApplicationSpec:

	class RunAppSpec extends BaseApplicationSpec {

		String getApplication() { "foo" }

		void "Test run-app starts correctly"() {

	        when:"The home page is requested"

	            go ""

	        then:"The Grails welcome page is shown"

	            title == "Welcome to Grails"			

		}

	}

	

The application needs to be created in the "apps" directory of the project before this test can be run.

Tests are executed using standard Gradle test command:

	./gradlew test

	

Running a single test can be done with:

	./gradlew -Dtest.single=RunApp test

	

Where "RunApp" above is the test name.

By default the test suite tries to look for GRAILS_HOME in the directories ../grails-core or ../grails-master. If you prefer to tell the suite where Grails is you can do:

	./gradlew -Dgrails.home=/path/to/grails test

Tests can also be run from the IDE. Just generate Eclipse or Intellij project files:

	./gradlew eclipse

	./gradlew idea

	

Import the project into your IDE and run the specs directly.
