Hippo Test Suite

Introduction

Goal

Run the Hippo Test Suite project to see examples of many different implementations and integrations.

Background

The Hippo Test Suite project is used by Hippo's engineering team to test many different implementations and integrations. For other developers, it serves as a collection of example implementations and integrations.

Please note that the test suite is provided to the community as-is and is not supported by Hippo. However, if you have a question about the test suite, feel free to post it at the community forum.

Clone, Build, and Run the Test Suite

Clone the hippo-testsuite Git repository on your development machine:

git clone https://code.onehippo.org/cms-community/hippo-testsuite.git

Alternatively, download the repository as a zip file from code.onehippo.org.

To be able to build the master branch, configure the Hippo Maven snapshot repository as described at Build Hippo CMS from source.

Tags are stable and do not require the snapshot repository.

Build and run the hippo-testsuite project like any other Hippo implementation project.

The different webapps are available at the usual URLs:

http://localhost:8080/cms/
http://localhost:8080/cms/console/
http://localhost:8080/cms/repository/
http://localhost:8080/site/
