## Testing in development mode
In separate terminals:
1\. Run a Mastodon dev server (note this destroys the `mastodon_development` database and inserts canned data):
npm run run-mastodon
2\. Run a Pinafore dev server:
npm run dev
2018-02-20 02:24:22 +00:00
3\. Run a debuggable TestCafé instance:
2018-02-18 22:38:10 +00:00
2018-02-20 02:36:54 +00:00
npx testcafe --hostname localhost --skip-js-errors --debug-mode firefox tests/spec
2018-02-18 22:38:10 +00:00
If you want to export the current data in the Mastodon instance as canned data, so that it can be loaded later:
npm run backup-mastodon-data
