Zucchini is built with Gradle. The Gradle wrapper is provided, no extra download is required.

First time, install Javascript dependencies:

npm install --global yarn
./gradlew yarnInstall

Build application with Gradle:

./gradlew build

Warning: when Gradle is launched with Intellij, the PATH environment variable doesn't always contain path to Webpack command. If this is the case, relaunch Gradle daemon:

./gradlew --stop
./gradlew build

Run Mongo database server:

mongod &

Run Mongo migrations to build database:

(cd zucchini-ui-mongo && ./migrate.sh MONGO_HOST/MONGO_DATABASE)

Import project (on IntelliJ)

• Install gradle plugin
• Restart IntelliJ
• You will see "Import gradle project" message on the right bottom (Event log). Click on it.
• Select "Use default gradle wrapper". Not "Use local gradle distribution".

Start Java backend:

./gradlew runBackend

Start frontend:

(cd zucchini-ui-frontend && yarn start)

Open your browser to (although the yarn start should open Zucchini home page) :

http://localhost:9000

You can build sample Cucumber reports from the zucchini-ui-example-features:

./gradlew runCucumber

Generated reports can be found in build directory.

The development UI server runs on port 9000, the backend server runs on ports 8080 (Zucchini API) and 8081 (Dropwizard admin API).

Start Java backend in debug mode

• Open the view "Gradle" > zucchini-ui > other
• Right-click on runBackend
• Debug

The sub-project zucchini-ui-app builds a fat JAR that contains backend and UI in one JAR. This JAR contains everything needed to run the Zucchini UI app.

You can run it with the following Gradle command:

./gradlew runShadow

The fat JAR is named zucchini-ui-app-VERSION-all.jar. You will find it in zucchini-ui-app/build/libs. Run it with this command:

java -jar zucchini-ui-app-VERSION-all.jar server CONFIG.yml

Don't forget to init your Mongo database !

(cd zucchini-ui-mongo && ./migrate.sh MONGO_HOST/MONGO_DATABASE)

You can build a Docker image:

./gradlew dockerBuild

The Docker image will be located at pgentile/zucchini-ui. After that, you can run the Docker image and its dependencies with the following command:

docker-compose up

You can find some pre-built images in Docker Hub.

You can launch some E2E Cypress tests:

(cd zucchini-ui-e2e-tests && yarn cypress:open)

This test suite is useful to validate basic Zucchini functionalities.

The configuration file used by the application is a Dropwizard YAML file.

You can use in your file environment variable, like ${HOME} or ${USER}. View the sample configuration file for more information.

Used frameworks:

• UI project: React, Redux, Redux-Forms, React-Bootstrap
• Backend project: Dropwizard, Spring, Morphia,
