Because since SlidingSync no longer restarts, the behaviour is really different. The current way the tests are written cannot assert the full behaviour. We need to rewrite this test suite entirely.
Matrix SDK sliding sync integration test
A test harness and tests for integration testing sliding sync against a full synapse server and sliding sync proxy
Requirements
This requires a synapse backend with a ci patched configuration and a sliding-sync-proxy.
You can easily get it up and running with docker-compose via:
docker-compose -f assets/docker-compose.yml up -d
docker-compose -f assets/docker-compose.yml logs --tail 100 -f
Patches
You can see the patches we do to configuration (namely activate registration and
resetting rate limits), check out what assets/ci-start.sh changes.
Running
The integration tests can be run with cargo test or cargo nextest run.
The integration tests expect the environment variables HOMESERVER_URL to be the HTTP URL to
access the synapse server and HOMESERVER_DOMAIN to be set to the domain configured in
that server. If you are using the provided docker-compose, the default will be fine.
Maintenance
To drop the database of your docker-compose run:
docker-compose -f assets/docker-compose.yml down -v
Then remove the local data stored at ./data.
