+# Vitest library API
+
+```ts
+import { describe, testActor, testStandbyActor, RunTestResult, ExpectStatic } from 'apify-test-tools';
+```
+
+Requires `vitest` `3.2.4` or later as a peer dependency.
+
+## Environment variables
+
+The library reads these when the test file is loaded:
+
+| Variable             | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
+| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `TESTER_APIFY_TOKEN` | Token the tests start runs and read their data with. Without it, every `describe` block is skipped, so a plain `npm test` stays unaffected.                                                                                                                                                            |
+| `ACTOR_BUILDS`       | JSON array of Actors to test, e.g. the builds the CLI's [`build`](cli.md#building-actors-build) and [`build-from-local`](cli.md#build-from-local-source-build-from-local) print. Only tests of Actors listed here run, against the listed build, or the default build for an Actor listed without one. |
+
+`ACTOR_BUILDS` entries look like this, and are matched to tests by `actorFullName` or `actorRawId`:
+
+```json
+[{ "buildId": "...", "actorRawId": "...", "buildNumber": "1.2.3", "actorFullName": "john.doe/my-actor" }]
+```
+
+## `describe(name, fn, options?)`
+
+Same as vitest's `describe`, but skipped unless `TESTER_APIFY_TOKEN` is set. Its tests
+run concurrently by default. Use it instead of vitest's `describe` for platform tests.
+
+## `testActor(actorId, testName, fn, options?)`
+
+Registers a test for an Actor. `actorId` is the Actor's full name (`owner/name`) or its raw platform ID. The test
+only runs when the Actor is in `ACTOR_BUILDS`. Its name is
+`<actorId>: <testName>`.
+
+`fn` gets the vitest test context, with `expect` extended by the [custom matchers](#custom-matchers), and a `run`
+function.
+
+`expect` is soft: a failed assertion marks the test as failed but the test keeps going, so one run reports every
+failed check at once. Use `expect.hard(...)` for an assertion that must stop the test, e.g. before indexing into a
+list that may be empty.
+
+```ts
+import { describe, testActor } from 'apify-test-tools';
+
+describe('test', () => {
+    testActor(actorId, 'actor test 1', async ({ expect, run }) => {
+        const runResult = await run({ input });
+
+        // your checks
+    });
+
+    testActor(actorId, 'actor test 2', async ({ expect, run }) => {
+        const runResult = await run({ input });
+
+        // your checks
+    });
+});
+```
+
+### Test options
+
+The fourth argument takes vitest's test options:
+
+| Option       | Default |
+| ------------ | ------- |
+| `timeout`    | 1 hour  |
+| `retry`      | `1`     |
+| `concurrent` | `true`  |
+
+```ts
+testActor(
+    actorId,
+    'slow actor test',
+    async ({ expect, run }) => {
+        const runResult = await run({ input });
+        await expect(runResult).toFinishWith({ datasetItemCount: 100 });
+    },
+    {
+        timeout: 2 * 60 * 60 * 1000, // 2 hours
+        retry: 3,
+    },
+);
+```
+
+### `run(options)`
+
+Starts the Actor, waits for the run to finish, and returns a [`RunTestResult`](#runtestresult). It runs the build
+from `ACTOR_BUILDS`, or the Actor's default build when it isn't listed there. Before returning, it waits 20 seconds
+for the run's dataset and statistics to sync, since the platform is only eventually consistent. The run's Console
+link is added to the test as a vitest annotation.
+
+| Option           | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
+| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `input`          | Actor input                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
+| `prefilledInput` | When `true`, `input` is merged on top of the Actor's prefilled input                                                                                                                                                                                      |
+| `options`        | [Actor call options](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/reference/interface/ActorCallOptions) like `memory`. `timeout` is in seconds and defaults to the Actor's default run timeout, at most 59 minutes, so the run finishes before the test times out |
+| `runId`          | Don't start a run; return this existing run instead. Every other option is ignored                                                                                                                                                                        |
+
+#### Using prefilled input
+
+```ts
+testActor(actorId, 'with prefilled input', async ({ expect, run }) => {
+    const runResult = await run({
+        prefilledInput: true,
+        input: { maxItems: 10 }, // merged on top of the prefilled input
+    });
+    await expect(runResult).toFinishWith({ datasetItemCount: 10 });
+});
+```
+
+#### Testing an existing run
+
+Useful for iterating on the checks of a test without waiting for a new run:
+
+```ts
+testActor(actorId, 'validate existing run', async ({ expect, run }) => {
+    const runResult = await run({ runId: 'some-run-id' });
+    await expect(runResult).toFinishWith({ datasetItemCount: 100 });
+});
+```
+
+## `testStandbyActor(actorId, testName, fn, options?)`
+
+Same as `testActor`, for Actors in standby mode. It creates a temporary task with the build from `ACTOR_BUILDS` (or
+the Actor's standby build) and deletes it after the test. Instead of `run`, `fn` gets `callStandby`, which sends a
+`POST` request with `input` as the JSON body to the task's standby URL, plus `path`, and returns
+`{ data, status, headers }`, where `data` is the parsed JSON response.
+
+```ts
+import { describe, testStandbyActor } from 'apify-test-tools';
+
+describe('standby tests', () => {
+    testStandbyActor(actorId, 'standby request', async ({ expect, callStandby }) => {
+        const { data, status } = await callStandby({
+            input: { query: 'test' },
+            path: '/search',
+            headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
+        });
+
+        expect(status).toBe(200);
+        expect(data.results).toBeNonEmptyArray();
+    });
+});
+```
+
+It fails if the Actor doesn't support standby mode.
+
+## `RunTestResult`
+
+What `run` returns. Every getter fetches its data on the first call and returns the same result afterwards, so you
+can call them freely.
+
+| Member                     | Returns                                                                                                  |
+| -------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `id`                       | The run ID                                                                                               |
+| `status`                   | The run status when it finished                                                                          |
+| `getDataset<T>()`          | `{ items: T[] }`, every item of the default dataset                                                      |
+| `getLog()`                 | The run log as a string                                                                                  |
+| `getStatistics()`          | The crawler statistics from the `SDK_CRAWLER_STATISTICS_0` record, or `undefined` for non-crawler Actors |
+| `getInput<T>()`            | The `INPUT` record of the default key-value store                                                        |
+| `getKeyValueStoreClient()` | An `apify-client` client for the default key-value store                                                 |
+| `getRunInfo()`             | The run object, fetched again so it reflects changes after the run finished                              |
+
+```ts
+testActor(actorId, 'check dataset items', async ({ expect, run }) => {
+    const runResult = await run({ input });
+
+    const { items } = await runResult.getDataset();
+    expect(items[0].title).toBeNonEmptyString();
+
+    const log = await runResult.getLog();
+    expect(log).toContain('Crawl finished');
+
+    const stats = await runResult.getStatistics();
+    expect(stats?.requestsFinished).toBeGreaterThan(0);
+
+    const kvs = runResult.getKeyValueStoreClient();
+    const record = await kvs.getRecord('OUTPUT');
+
+    const runInfo = await runResult.getRunInfo();
+});
+```
+
+## `toFinishWith(options)`
+
+Validates the common run properties in a single call and reports every failed check at once. Only
+`datasetItemCount` is required; the rest have defaults. Numeric checks take an exact number or a range: `{ min }`,
+`{ max }` or `{ min, max }`. Set a check with a default to `null` to skip it.
+
+| Option                 | Default                           | Checks                                                                                           |
+| ---------------------- | --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `datasetItemCount`     | required                          | Number of items in the default dataset                                                           |
+| `status`               | `'SUCCEEDED'`                     | Run status                                                                                       |
+| `duration`             | `{ min: 600, max: 600_000 }`      | Run duration in milliseconds (0.6 s to 10 min)                                                   |
+| `failedRequests`       | `0`                               | Failed requests in the crawler statistics                                                        |
+| `requestsRetries`      | `{ max: 3 }`                      | Request retries in the crawler statistics                                                        |
+| `maxRetriesPerRequest` | `null`                            | The most retries any single request needed                                                       |
+| `forbiddenLogs`        | `['ReferenceError', 'TypeError']` | Strings that must not appear in the log                                                          |
+| `chargedEventCounts`   | not checked                       | Pay-per-event counts, per event name. An event you omit is expected to have been charged 0 times |
+
+`failedRequests` and `requestsRetries` come from the crawler statistics, so they fail for an Actor that doesn't
+write them. Set both to `null` for Actors that don't use a Crawlee crawler.
+
+```ts
+await expect(runResult).toFinishWith({
+    datasetItemCount: { min: 80, max: 120 },
+    duration: { max: 30 * 60 * 1000 },
+    chargedEventCounts: {
+        'actor-start': 1,
+        'place-scraped': { min: 80, max: 120 },
+    },
+});
+```
+
+## Custom matchers
+
+`expect` in `testActor` and `testStandbyActor` is extended with:
+
+- `toBeArray()` / `toBeEmptyArray()` / `toBeNonEmptyArray()`
+- `toBeString()` / `toBeNonEmptyString()` / `toStartWith(prefix)`
+- `toBeNumber()` / `toBeWholeNumber()` / `toBeWithinRange(min, max)`
+- `toBeBoolean()` / `toBeTrue()` / `toBeFalse()`
+- `toBeObject()` / `toBeNonEmptyObject()`
+- [`toFinishWith(options)`](#tofinishwithoptions)
+
+Pass a message as the second argument of `expect` to say what failed:
+
+```ts
+expect(place.title, `London Eye's title`).toEqual('lastminute.com London Eye');
+```
+
+### Custom validation functions
+
+Wrap shared checks in your own functions, e.g. in `test/platform/utils.ts`, and pass them `expect`. Use the
+`ExpectStatic` type so the custom matchers type-check:
+
+```ts
+import { ExpectStatic } from 'apify-test-tools';
+
+export const validateItem = (expect: ExpectStatic, item: any) => {
+    expect(item.title, 'Item title').toBeString();
+};
+```
+
+## Running tests locally
+
+Run every command from the root of the Actor repository.
+
+**Against the current default builds.** Enough when you only change the tests. List the Actors with
+[`get-actor-configs`](cli.md#listing-actors-get-actor-configs), all of them or a few with `--actors`, and pass them to
+[`test`](cli.md#running-tests-test), which tests each on its default build:
+
+```bash
+npx apify-test-tools get-actor-configs --actors john.doe/my-actor | TESTER_APIFY_TOKEN=<token> npx apify-test-tools test
+```
+
+This also runs a test that reuses an existing run with [`runId`](#testing-an-existing-run), as long as its Actor is
+listed.
+
+**Against builds of your changes.** Build the Actors with the CLI, either from local files with
+[`build-from-local`](cli.md#build-from-local-source-build-from-local) or from a pushed branch with
+[`build`](cli.md#building-actors-build), and pass the output to [`test`](cli.md#running-tests-test):
+
+```bash
+APIFY_TOKEN_JOHN_DOE=<token> npx apify-test-tools build-from-local --actors john.doe/my-actor > builds.json
+
+TESTER_APIFY_TOKEN=<token> npx apify-test-tools test < builds.json
+```
+
+`test` passes the builds to vitest as `ACTOR_BUILDS`, so plain vitest works too:
+`ACTOR_BUILDS="$(cat builds.json)" TESTER_APIFY_TOKEN=<token> npx vitest run test/platform`.
+
+You can change the tests and re-run them against the same builds.
+
+`TESTER_APIFY_TOKEN` can be the token of any account with enough memory for the runs. To run only some tests, pass a specific file instead of `test/platform`, or filter by
+name with vitest's `-t <name>` when running vitest directly. See [Running locally](cli.md#running-locally) for the full flow.
