# Running the test suite
Zulip tests must be run inside a Zulip development environment; if
you're using Vagrant, you will need to enter the Vagrant environment
before running the tests:
```
vagrant ssh
cd /srv/zulip
```
To run all the tests, do this:
```
./tools/test-all
```
For more details on how to run a single test, efficiently debug test
failures, or write tests, check out the [detailed testing
docs][tdocs].
[tdocs]: http://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/testing.html
This runs the linter (`tools/lint-all`) plus all of our test suites;
they can all be run separately (just read `tools/test-all` to see
them). You can also run individual tests which can save you a lot of
time debugging a test failure, e.g.:
```
./tools/lint-all # Runs all the linters in parallel
./tools/test-backend zerver.tests.test_bugdown.BugdownTest.test_inline_youtube
./tools/test-js-with-casper 09-navigation.js
./tools/test-js-with-node util.js
```
The above setup instructions include the first-time setup of test
databases, but you may need to rebuild the test database occasionally
if you're working on new database migrations. To do this, run:
```
./tools/do-destroy-rebuild-test-database
```
## Possible testing issues
- When running the test suite, if you get an error like this:
```
sqlalchemy.exc.ProgrammingError: (ProgrammingError) function ts_match_locs_array(unknown, text, tsquery) does not exist
LINE 2: ...ECT message_id, flags, subject, rendered_content, ts_match_l...
^
```
… then you need to install tsearch-extras, described
above. Afterwards, re-run the `init*-db` and the
`do-destroy-rebuild*-database` scripts.
- When building the development environment using Vagrant and the LXC
provider, if you encounter permissions errors, you may need to
`chown -R 1000:$(whoami) /path/to/zulip` on the host before running
`vagrant up` in order to ensure that the synced directory has the
correct owner during provision. This issue will arise if you run `id
username` on the host where `username` is the user running Vagrant
and the output is anything but 1000.
This seems to be caused by Vagrant behavior; for more information,
see [the vagrant-lxc FAQ entry about shared folder permissions
][lxc-sf].
