3.Running Acceptance Test
Acceptance test can be an important part of developing process. Basically, it will first create a resource,
validate its attributes and see if it works as expected. Update this resource if applied and eventually delete this resource.
Acceptance tests are files in jdcloud
with suffix _test.go
. You can invoke an acceptance test by
make testacc
Note
- Acceptance creates real resources, it will probably cost some money.
- Process usually takes 20~30 minutes depends on your network condition.
