Testing Connectors
Multiple tests suites compose the Airbyte connector testing pyramid
Common to all connectors
Connector specific tests
🐍 Python connectors
We use pytest to run unit and integration tests:
# From connector directory
poetry run pytest
☕ Java connectors
We run Java connector tests with gradle.
# Unit tests
./gradlew :airbyte-integrations:connectors:source-postgres:test
# Integration tests
./gradlew :airbyte-integrations:connectors:source-postgres:integrationTestJava
Please note that according to the test implementation you might have to provide connector configurations as a config.json file in a .secrets folder in the connector code directory.
🤖 CI
If you want to run the global test suite, exactly like what is run in CI, you should install airbyte-ci CLI and use the following command:
airbyte-ci connectors --name=<connector_name> test
This will run all the tests for the connector, including the QA checks and the Connector Acceptance tests.
Connector Acceptance tests require connector configuration to be provided as a config.json file in a .secrets folder in the connector code directory.
Our CI infrastructure runs the connector tests with airbyte-ci CLI. Connectors tests are automatically and remotely triggered on your branch according to the changes made in your branch.
Passing tests are required to merge a connector pull request.
