Local UI, Test Data

One-time setup:

1. Install Buck for building Gerrit.
2. Build Gerrit and set up a local test site.

Run a test server:

buck build polygerrit && \
java -jar buck-out/gen/polygerrit/polygerrit.war daemon --polygerrit-dev -d ../gerrit_testsite --console-log --show-stack-trace

Running Tests

One-time setup:

# Debian/Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install npm

# OS X with Homebrew
brew install npm

# All platforms (including those above)
sudo npm install -g web-component-tester

Run all web tests:

buck test --no-results-cache --include web

The --no-results-cache flag prevents flaky test failures from being cached.

If you need to pass additional arguments to wct:

WCT_ARGS='-p --some-flag="foo bar"' buck test --no-results-cache --include web
