Automated testing using GitHub Actions

Run your tests when you or your team make changes.

You can use the Supabase CLI to run automated tests.

Testing your database#

After you have created unit tests for your database, you can use the GitHub Action to run the tests.

Inside your repository, create a new file inside the .github/workflows folder called database-tests.yml. Copy this snippet inside the file, and the action will run whenever a new PR is created:

1
name: 'database-tests'
2
on:
3
  pull_request:

jobs:
6
  build:

    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:

      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
10
      - uses: supabase/setup-cli@v1
11
        with:
12
          version: latest
13
      - run: supabase db start
14
      - run: supabase test db

Testing your Edge Functions#

After you have created unit tests for your Edge Functions, you can use the GitHub Action to run the tests.

Inside your repository, create a new file inside the .github/workflows folder called functions-tests.yml. Copy this snippet inside the file, and the action will run whenever a new PR is created:
