This directory contains code and data used to test the Node.js implementation.
For a detailed guide on how to write tests in this directory, see the guide on writing tests.
On how to run tests in this directory, see the contributing guide.
| Directory | Runs on CI | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| abort | No |
Tests for when the --abort-on-uncaught-exception
flag is used.
|
| addons | Yes | Tests for addon functionality along with some tests that require an addon to function properly. |
| cctest | Yes | C++ test that is run as part of the build process. |
| common | Common modules shared among many tests. [Documentation] | |
| debugger | No | Tests for debugger functionality along with some tests that require an addon to function properly. |
| disabled | No | Tests that have been disabled from running for various reasons. |
| fixtures | Test fixtures used in various tests throughout the test suite. | |
| gc | No | Tests for garbage collection related functionality. |
| inspector | Yes | Tests for the V8 inspector integration. |
| internet | No | Tests that make real outbound connections (mainly networking related modules). Tests for networking related modules may also be present in other directories, but those tests do not make outbound connections. |
| known_issues | Yes | Tests reproducing known issues within the system. All tests inside of this directory are expected to fail consistently. If a test doesn't fail on certain platforms, those should be skipped via `known_issues.status`. |
| message | Yes |
Tests for messages that are output for various conditions
(console.log, error messages etc.) |
| parallel | Yes | Various tests that are able to be run in parallel. |
| pseudo-tty | Yes | Tests that require stdin/stdout/stderr to be a TTY. |
| pummel | No | Various tests for various modules / system functionality operating under load. |
| sequential | Yes | Various tests that are run sequentially. |
| testpy | Test configuration utility used by various test suites. | |
| tick-processor | No |
Tests for the V8 tick processor integration. The tests are for the
logic in lib/internal/v8_prof_processor.js and
lib/internal/v8_prof_polyfill.js. The tests confirm that
the profile processor packages the correct set of scripts from V8 and
introduces the correct platform specific logic.
|
| timers | No |
Tests for
timing utilities
(setTimeout and setInterval).
