SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Tauri applications often require both unit-level testing with mocked APIs and real end-to-end validation, which can be complex to set up and maintain.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mock Tauri APIs for isolated frontend testing using @tauri-apps/api/mocks to simulate IPC and side effects.
  • End-to-end testing with WebDriver via tauri-driver or WebDriverIO/Selenium for cross-platform validation.
  • CI integration guidance with GitHub Actions to run unit and e2e tests automatically.
  • Vitest-based unit tests with a mock runtime to verify frontend logic without launching native webview.

Quick Start

Run a complete test workflow by configuring mocks, installing vitest and tauri-driver, and executing both unit tests and end-to-end tests.

FAQPage Schema
How do I test Tauri apps with mocked APIs and end-to-end automation?

Test Tauri apps by combining Vitest unit tests using @tauri-apps/api/mocks for IPC mocking with tauri-driver WebDriver e2e tests. This validates frontend logic without launching native webview and executes cross-platform automation.

How do I mock Tauri IPC calls for isolated frontend unit testing?

Mock Tauri IPC calls using @tauri-apps/api/mocks to simulate side effects within a Vitest runtime. This creates an isolated mock environment to verify frontend logic without launching the native webview.

Does Tauri v2 support WebDriver for end-to-end testing?

Yes, Tauri v2 supports WebDriver for end-to-end testing via tauri-driver or WebDriverIO. This enables real cross-platform validation by automating native webview interactions during e2e tests.

How do I run Tauri unit and e2e tests automatically in CI?

Run Tauri tests automatically in CI by integrating GitHub Actions workflows. This executes both Vitest unit tests and WebDriver-based end-to-end tests across cross-platform environments.

What is the best way to structure Tauri e2e test directories?

Structure Tauri e2e tests by placing them under e2e-tests or test/ directories. This project structure accommodates both Vitest unit-level mock environments and WebDriver-based end-to-end automation.
