66
- IS_HEADLESS=false
67
- ```
68
-

70
- | ------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
71
- | `BASE_URL` | The URL Playwright opens at the start of tests |
72
- | `IS_HEADLESS` | `true` to run headlessly, `false` to see the browser |
73
-
74
- ### Add extra packages (optional)
75
-
76
- If your tests need additional npm packages, add them to `plum.plugins.json`:
77
-
78
- ```json
79
- {
80
- "dependencies": {
81
- "@faker-js/faker": "^9.0.0"

110
- | **App URL (BASE_URL)** | from your `.env` | The URL Playwright opens at the start of every test |
111
- | **Headless?** | `No` | Whether browsers run hidden |
112
- | **Backend port** | `3001` | Host port for the API |
113
- | **Frontend (UI) port** | `5173` | Host port for the web UI |
114
- | **Primary public URL** | `http://<your-ip>:<port>` | The address you give runner nodes (see [Runner Setup](#4-runner-setup)) |
115
-
116
- Your answers are saved to `.plum-server.json`, so the next `plum server start` reuses them without asking.
117
-
118
- ### First-user setup
119
-
120
- On the very first start, Plum detects that no user accounts exist and prompts you to create one:
121
-
122
- ```
123
- No users found — create your first account to get started.
124
- ✔ Your name … Jane Smith
125
- ✔ Email address … jane@example.com
126
- ✔ Password …
127
- ✓ Account created for jane@example.com. You can now log in.
128
- ```
129
-
130
- After that, open the UI at the frontend port it prints (default **http://localhost:5173**) and sign in. Additional users can be invited from **Settings → Account** or the **Settings → Users** page.
131
-
132
- > If you skip the CLI prompt, visit `http://localhost:5173/setup` in your browser to create the first account.
133
-
134
- > Docker must be running before you use this command. Plum builds and starts the backend, database, and UI automatically.
135
-
136
- **Skip the prompts** by passing flags (handy for CI):
137
-
138
- ```bash
139
- plum server start --base-url https://your-app.com --headless true --backend-port 3001 --frontend-port 5173
140
- ```
141
-
142
- ### Change settings later
143
-
144
- ```bash
145
- plum server reconfig
146
- ```
147
-
148
- Re-asks every question and saves your answers **without** starting the stack. Run `plum server start` afterwards to apply them.
149
-
150
- ### Stop
151
-
152
- ```bash
153
- plum server stop
154
- ```
155
-
156
- or the shorthand:
157
-
158
- ```bash
159
- plum stop
160
- ```
161
-
162
- > Your data (reports, schedules, settings) is preserved in the database volume. Only the running containers are stopped.

165
-
166
- ## 3. Writing Tests
167
-
168
- Plum uses [Cucumber](https://cucumber.io) and [Gherkin](https://cucumber.io/docs/gherkin/) to write human-readable test cases.
169
-
170
- ### Cucumber Basics
171
-
172
- Gherkin is a plain-English language for writing test scenarios. Each test lives in a `.feature` file and follows this structure:
173
-
174
- ```gherkin
175
- @suite-login
176
- Feature: Login
177
-
178
- @test-login-1
179
- Scenario: User can log in with valid credentials
180
- Given I am on the login page
181
- When I enter valid credentials
182
- Then I should see the dashboard
183
- ```
184
-
185
- **Key concepts:**
186
-
187
- | Term | What it is |
188
- | ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
189
- | `Feature` | A group of related scenarios (one per file) |
190
- | `Scenario` | A single test case |
191
- | `Given` | Sets up the initial state |
192
- | `When` | Performs an action |
193
- | `Then` | Asserts the expected outcome |
194
- | `Background` | Steps that run before every scenario in a file |
195
- | `Scenario Outline` | A parameterized scenario that runs once per row in an `Examples` table |
196
- | `@tag` | A label used to run specific tests or suites |
197

- ---
205
-
206
- ### Project Structure
207
-
208
- Tests follow a three-layer structure: **Feature → Step Definition → Page Object**.
209
-
210
- #### Feature File — what to test
211
-
212
- ```gherkin
213
- # tests/features/Login.feature
214
-
215
- @suite-login
216
- Feature: Login
217
-
218
- @test-login-1
219
- Scenario: User can log in with valid credentials
220
- Given I am on the login page
221
- When I enter valid credentials
222
- Then I should see the dashboard
223
- ```
224
-
225
- Tags (`@suite-login`, `@test-login-1`) let you run specific tests or entire suites. Every suite and scenario should have its own tag.
226
-
227
- #### Page Object — how to interact with the page
228
-
229
- ```typescript
230
- // tests/pages/LoginPage.ts
231
-
232
- import { page } from '../utils/browser';
233
-
234
- export class LoginPage {
235
- static async goToLoginPage() {
236
- await page().goto(process.env.BASE_URL as string);
237
- }
238
-
239
- static async enterCredentials(username: string, password: string) {
240
- await page().fill('#username', username);
241
- await page().fill('#password', password);
242
- await page().click('button[type="submit"]');
243
- }
244
-
245
- static async verifyDashboardVisible() {
246
- await page().waitForSelector('#dashboard');
247
- }
248
- }
249
- ```
250
-
251
- Methods are `static` and use the `page()` helper from `utils/browser.ts` — you never pass a page instance around.
252
-
253
- #### Step Definition — connects Gherkin to code
254
-
255
- ```typescript
256
- // tests/step_definitions/LoginSteps.ts
257
-
258
- import { Given, When, Then } from '@cucumber/cucumber';
259
- import { LoginPage } from '../pages/LoginPage';
260
-
261
- Given('I am on the login page', async () => {
262
- await LoginPage.goToLoginPage();
263
- });
264
-
265
- When('I enter valid credentials', async () => {
266
- await LoginPage.enterCredentials('user@example.com', 'password123');
267
- });
268
-
269
- Then('I should see the dashboard', async () => {
270
- await LoginPage.verifyDashboardVisible();
271
- });
272
- ```
273
-
274
- ---
275
-
276
- ### Generate a Step
277
-
278
- Use `plum create-step` to interactively scaffold a new step definition and page object method:
279
-
280
- ```bash
281
- plum create-step
282
- ```
283
-
284
- Follow the prompts — Plum writes the boilerplate, you fill in the implementation.
285
-
286
- ---
287
-
288
- ### Run Tests Locally
45
+ Open **http://localhost:5173** and sign in with the account you create on first start.
289
46
 
290
- Use `plum run-test` to run tests directly on your machine without Docker:
47
+ ### For contributors
291
48
 
292
49
  ```bash
293
- plum run-test # run all tests
294
- plum run-test @test-login-1 # run a single scenario
295
- plum run-test @suite-login # run an entire suite
296
- plum run-test --parallel 4 # run all tests across 4 workers
297
- plum run-test --parallel 4 @suite-login # run a suite in parallel
298
- plum run-test --browser firefox # run in a specific browser
299
- ```
300
-
301
- | Flag | Description |
302
- | ------------------ | --------------------------------- |
303
- | `@tag` | Run only tests matching the tag |
304
- | `--parallel <n>` | Run across `n` parallel workers |
305
- | `--browser <name>` | `chromium` (default) or `firefox` |
306
-
307
- > `plum run-test` syncs your tests, installs dependencies, and runs Cucumber. No Docker needed.
308
-
309
- ---
310
-
311
- ## 4. Test Repository
312
-
313
- Plum includes a built-in test case management system accessible from the **Test Repository** tab in the UI.
314
-
315
- ### Test Suites and Cases
316
-
317
- Organise test cases into **suites**. Each suite and case gets an auto-assigned ID (e.g. `TS-001`, `TC-001`). The prefix is configurable in **Settings → Repository**.
318
-
319
- Each test case has:
320
-
321
- - **Title** and **Description**
322
- - **Priority** — Critical, High, Medium, or Low
323
- - **Test Steps** — an ordered table with columns: Action, Test Data, Expected Output
324
- - **Automated tag** — a Cucumber `@tag` name that links this case to an automated scenario (e.g. `test-login-1`)
325
- - **History** — a timeline of every result, from manual test runs and automated builds
326
-
327
- ### Linking automated tests
328
-
329
- Set the **Automated tag** on a test case to match a Cucumber `@tag` in your feature files. After every automated run, Plum scans the results and:
330
-
331
- 1. Marks matching cases as **automated**
332
- 2. Records a pass/fail entry in the case's history
333
-
334
- ```gherkin
335
- @test-login-1
336
- Scenario: User can log in with valid credentials
337
- ```
338
-
339
- If `TC-042` has `automatedTag = test-login-1`, it will be marked automated and updated after each build — no manual linking required.
340
-
341
- ### Test Runs
342
-
343
- Create a **Test Run** (e.g. "Sprint 12 regression") and drag test cases from the suite browser into the run. Then switch to **Execute** mode to step through each case and mark it pass / fail / blocked / skip.
344
-
345
- Results are recorded in the case's history and the run's progress bar updates in real time.
346
-
347
- ### Migrating IDs
348
-
349
- If you change the test ID prefix (e.g. from `TC` to `CASE`), use **Settings → Repository → Run Migration** to rename all existing IDs at once. Cucumber tags in your code are intentionally left unchanged — update those separately.
350
-
351
- ---
352
-
353
- ## 5. Runner Setup
354
-
355
- Runners are additional machines that execute tests in parallel alongside the primary server, letting you distribute a large suite across many nodes. A node runs as a plain Node process — **no Docker required**.
356
-
357
- Each node automatically installs **Chromium and Firefox** — no browser selection needed. When triggering a test run from the UI, you choose which browser to use at run time.
358
-
359
- ### Start a runner node
360
-
361
- On the machine that will act as a runner, navigate to your Plum project and run:
362
-
363
- ```bash
364
- plum node start
365
- ```
366
-
367
- Plum asks a few questions, **registers the node with your server automatically**, starts it in the background, then opens the runner management menu:
368
-
369
- | Prompt | Default | What it sets |
370
- | ------------------ | ------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
371
- | **Primary URL** | last used | The server this node registers with (e.g. `http://192.168.1.5:3001`) |
372
- | **Local port** | `3001` | The port this node process listens on |
373
- | **Advertised URL** | `http://<your-ip>:<port>` | The address the **server** uses to reach this node |
374
- | **Runner name** | `node-<random>` | The name shown in the UI |
375
- | **Auth token** | auto-generated | Shared secret; press Enter to keep the generated one |
376
-
377
- The node starts as a **background daemon** — your terminal is free immediately. Logs go to `backend/logs/runner-<id>.log`. Settings are saved to `.plum-node.json`, so re-running reuses them and never creates a duplicate.
378
-
379
- After setup, the **runner management menu** opens automatically. From there you can start, stop, restart, and ping any runner registered on the primary. Exit the menu any time — the node keeps running.
380
-
381
- **Skip the prompts** with flags (handy for CI or scripted nodes):
382
-
383
- ```bash
384
- plum node start --primary http://192.168.1.5:3001 --port 3001 --name ci-node-1
385
- ```
386
-
387
- | Flag | Description |
388
- | ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
389
- | `--primary <url>` | Server to auto-register with. Omit to only print the details for manual entry. |
390
- | `--url <url>` | Address the server calls back. Defaults to `<lan-ip>:<port>`; pass a domain to override. |
391
- | `--port <n>` | Local HTTP port the node listens on (default `3001`). |
392
- | `--token <secret>` | Auth token. Auto-generated and saved if omitted. |
393
- | `--name <name>` | Runner name shown in the UI. |
394
-
395
- #### Nodes behind a domain or reverse proxy
396
-
397
- `--url` is the address the **server** calls back and is used exactly as given, while `--port` is the local port the node listens on. So a node behind an HTTPS reverse proxy is:
398
-
399
- ```bash
400
- plum node start --primary https://plum.example.com --url https://node1.example.com --port 3001
401
- ```
402
-
403
- The server reaches the node at `https://node1.example.com`; the proxy forwards to the node on port `3001`. The advertised `--url` must be reachable from the server.
404
-
405
- ### Manage runners
406
-
407
- ```bash
408
- plum manage-runners
409
- ```
410
-
411
- Opens the interactive runner management menu at any time (reads the primary URL from your saved node config). You can also pass a different server:
412
-
413
- ```bash
414
- plum manage-runners --primary http://192.168.1.5:3001
415
- ```
416
-
417
- > In development, the equivalent command is `npm run manage-runners` from the `backend/` directory.
418
-
419
- ### Change settings later
420
-
421
- ```bash
422
- plum node reconfig
423
- ```
424
-
425
- Re-asks every question, re-registers with the primary, and prints the updated card — **without** starting the node. Run `plum node start` afterwards to launch it.
426
-
427
- ### Register manually (fallback)
428
-
429
- If you run `plum node start` without a reachable `--primary`, Plum prints the node's **name, url, and token** instead. Add it by hand:
430
-
431
- 1. Open the Plum UI at **http://localhost:5173**
432
- 2. Go to **Settings → Runners**
433
- 3. Click **Add Runner** and paste the node's URL, token, and name
434
-
435
- ### Stop a runner node
436
-
437
- ```bash
438
- plum node stop
50
+ git clone https://github.com/silverlunah/plum.git
51
+ cd plum
52
+ npm run init # installs all monorepo dependencies
53
+ npm run docker:up # builds and starts the full stack
439
54
  ```
440
55
 
441
- Stops the node started from the current folder. You can also stop individual runners from the `plum manage-runners` menu.
56
+ The UI is available at **http://localhost:5173**. The frontend dev server runs outside Docker for fast HMR — see the **Development** section below.

- ## 6. Notifications (Discord & Slack)
446
-
447
- Plum can post a pass/fail summary to a Discord channel or Slack workspace after every automated or manual test run. The notification includes the job name, overall result, scenario counts, browser, tags, and a link to the full report.
