# Setting up a Python project

This guide shows you how to configure a Python project to run on TURBO TEST. Here's an overview of the process:

It should take around 15 minutes to install and configure your project.

# Create configuration file

Create a .turbo_test.toml file in your repository root if you haven't already done so. For example, execute these commands from your command line terminal:

# cd $REPOSITORY_LOCAL_DIRECTORY
touch .turbo_test.toml

# Install Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS packages

Copy the Python on Rails configuration below into .turbo_test.toml.

.turbo_test.toml
# The top level env specifies environment variables available globally.
# Environment variables are specified as key/value pairs.
[env]
RAILS_ENV=test

# A string specifying the command which executes one test file.
#
# This is where you install required programming languages, databases and other
# supporting libraries.
#
# Your repository source code is available in the /src directory.
#
# The installation is cached as a virtual machine image for subsequent test
# runs. When the install section changes, the virtual machine image is
# re-created.
 #
# Installation commands are specified as a TOML multi-line string.
#
# N.B. Shell commands MUST execute non-interactively. For example, commands
# requiring user input will hang until the test run is cancelled or after a
# 15 minute timeout.
#
# You can find an overview of the configuration, packages and services available
# in the TURBO TEST Ubuntu 22.04 LTS environment here:
# http://turbo-test.com/installing_dependencies/ubuntu_2204_lts_environment

# The default ruby version mananger is chruby.
# You can find the TURBO TEST Ubuntu 22.04 LTS ruby installation script here:
# https://github.com/turbotest/ubuntu_2204_LTS/blob/main/install/ruby.sh

[base_image]
commands = '''
sudo apt update -y

# Install extra packages not already included in the base image
# sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt install --no-install-recommends -yq \
#   EXTRA_APT_PACKAGES

# (!) If you're using importmaps, you can delete node_modules / .nvm / yarn
[cache]
directories = [ "vendor/bundle", "node_modules", "/home/ubuntu/.nvm", "/home/ubuntu/.cache/yarn" ]

# The before_test_run definition specifies commands to execute before running
# your test runs.
#
# Unlike the base_image definition, before_test_run is not cached and executes
# on every test run.
#
# Use this definition to:
# - update project dependencies
# - compile classes
# - start operating system services
[before_test_run]
commands = '''
# Uncomment services needed for your project:
# sudo systemctl start elasticsearch
# sudo systemctl start memcached
# sudo systemctl start mysql
# sudo systemctl start postgresql@15-main.service
# sudo systemctl start postgresql@16-main.service
# sudo systemctl start rabbitmq
# sudo systemctl start redis

bundle install
bundle exec rails db:setup
bundle exec rails assets:precompile # May be required for UI tests
'''

# Test runs are inferred from each TOML key starting with test_run.
#
# Specify multiple test runs by adding test_run keys. For example:
# [test_run."system tests"]
# [test_run.integration]
#
# Create a default test_run if you only require one test run.
[test_run.default]

# A string specifying the command which executes one test file.
#
# The test file is passed as the last argument to the command.
command = "bundle exec rails test"

# Uncomment the line below if your project uses the Rspec testing framework.
# command = "bundle exec rspec"

# An array of file path globs which expands to a list of files. File paths are
# relative to the project directory.
#
# Each file is passed as the last argument to your test command.
# Default Rails test
files = ["test/**/*_test.rb"]

# Uncomment the line below if your project uses the Rspec testing framework.
# files = ["test/**/*_spec.rb"]

# An array of file path globs which expands to a list of files. File paths are
# relative to the project directory.
#
# No tests will be executed with any files matched in this definition section.
ignore = [
  "test/models/IGNORE_test.rb"
]

# Create additional test runs when the command or files are different to the
# default test run. For example:
#
# [test_run.cucumber]
# command = "bundle exec cucumber"
# files = ["features/**/*.feature"]

Before you push your configuration to GitHub, verify your configuration locally and add required secrets from the web UI:
