⁠Ghost Inspector test runner Docker images

Build status:

Ghost Inspector⁠ is an automated website testing and monitoring service that checks for problems with your website or application. It carries out operations in a browser, the same way a user would, to ensure that everything is working properly.

This Docker image will allow you to execute your Ghost Inspector test suite⁠ against your local Docker application.

There is also a standalone, multi-container Docker image available here⁠.

⁠Quickstart

Example Dockerfile:

FROM ghostinspector/test-runner-node

# Copy your node app
COPY . .

# Install your app
RUN npm install .

ENV NGROK_TOKEN <your-ngrok-token>
ENV GI_API_KEY <ghostinspector-api-key>
ENV GI_SUITE <ghostinspector-suite-id>
ENV APP_PORT 3000

# Pass your application entrypoint into our test runner script
CMD ["index.js"]

Now build and run your image:

$ docker build -t my-app .
$ docker run my-app

⁠Base Docker Image

This image is intended to be the base image for your application under test, meaning that the application runtime and Ghost Inspector scripts and utilities are pre-installed for you.

To get started, specify ghostinspector/test-runner-node in the FROM section of your Dockerfile.

⁠Environment variables

As well as adding any dependencies or additional requirements for your application, the following environment variables are required for the test runner:

• NGROK_TOKEN - available from your ngrok account⁠
• GI_API_KEY - available in your Ghost Inspector account⁠
• GI_SUITE - the ID of the Ghost Inspector test suite you wish to run
• APP_PORT - the port your local application will run on (eg: 3000)

⁠Entry point

The last line of your Dockerfile should be ENTRYPOINT, which should look something like this:

CMD ["index.js", "--foo=bar"]

...where index.js is the entrypoint for your application. Under the hood, our test runner script⁠ will perform the following:

• start the entrypoint specified in ENTRYPOINT (eg: index.js) with node
• start the ngrok daemon and open a tunnel to localhost:PORT
• execute the Ghost Inspector test suite based on GI_SUITE
• poll the Ghost Inspector API for passing status until a result is provided
• exit with the pass (0) or fail (1) status
