# PWAF Connector Testing
Use this skill when building or using a test runner for PWAF connector projects. The pattern here can be applied to any new connector project to test all connectors across all auth types.
---
## Overview
A PWAF connector test runner (`tests/run_all_tests.sh`) validates every connector (REST API, Python SDK, SQL drivers, Go, Java, Node.js) across all supported auth types (PAT, OAuth M2M, OAuth U2M), with proper environment isolation for each test.
Key design principles:
1. **Each test runs in a clean `env -i` subprocess** — never inherit full shell environment
2. **Each auth type has its own set of required variables** — never mix them
3. **Browser tests (U2M) are opt-in** — require `PWAF_RUN_BROWSER_TESTS=1`
4. **Build failures skip tests** — don't fail the run, just mark as skipped
5. **Results written to a report file** for review
---
## Environment File
The test runner reads credentials from a `.env` file (passed with `--env <name>`). The file is located at `.env_<name>` in the project root.
```bash
# .env_demo — example
DATABRICKS_HOST=https://myworkspace.cloud.databricks.com
DATABRICKS_TOKEN=dapiXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
DATABRICKS_CLIENT_ID=11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555
DATABRICKS_CLIENT_SECRET=doceXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
DATABRICKS_U2M_CLIENT_ID=66666666-7777-8888-9999-000000000000
DATABRICKS_U2M_CLIENT_SECRET=doceYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
DATABRICKS_REDIRECT_URI=http://localhost:8080/callback
DATABRICKS_HTTP_PATH=/sql/1.0/warehouses/abcdef123456
DATABRICKS_WAREHOUSE_ID=abcdef123456
CATALOG=my_catalog
```
---
## Auth Type → Required Variables
Each auth type is tested in its own `env -i` subprocess with only these variables:
| Auth type | Required env vars |
|-----------|------------------|
| `pat` | `DATABRICKS_HOST`, `DATABRICKS_TOKEN` |
| `oauth_m2m` | `DATABRICKS_HOST`, `DATABRICKS_CLIENT_ID`, `DATABRICKS_CLIENT_SECRET` |
| `u2m_custom_oauth_app` | `DATABRICKS_HOST`, `DATABRICKS_U2M_CLIENT_ID`, `DATABRICKS_U2M_CLIENT_SECRET` (if confidential), `DATABRICKS_REDIRECT_URI` |
| `u2m_token_env` | `DATABRICKS_HOST`, `DATABRICKS_ACCESS_TOKEN` (or `DATABRICKS_TOKEN`) |
Always include in the `env -i` base: `PATH`, `HOME`, `USER`, `LANG`.
> **Never include `DATABRICKS_AUTH_TYPE` in any test subprocess.** The Python SDK, Go SDK, and Java SDK all read it internally. Setting it to application-level values like `"oauth_m2m"` breaks credential resolution.
> Use `APP_AUTH_TYPE=<value>` as the application-level selector passed to the connector.

## Script Structure
```bash
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -euo pipefail
# === Defaults ===
ENV_NAME="demo"
FILTER_APP=""
FILTER_AUTH=""
PARALLEL=0
PARALLEL_AUTHS="pat,oauth_m2m"
SKIP_BUILD=0
BROWSER_TESTS="${PWAF_RUN_BROWSER_TESTS:-0}"
# === Argument parsing ===
while [[ $# -gt 0 ]]; do
case "$1" in
--env) ENV_NAME="$2"; shift 2 ;;
--app) FILTER_APP="$2"; shift 2 ;;
--auth) FILTER_AUTH="$2"; shift 2 ;;
--parallel) PARALLEL=1; shift 1 ;;
--parallel-auths) PARALLEL_AUTHS="$2"; shift 2 ;;
--skip-build) SKIP_BUILD=1; shift 1 ;;
*) echo "Unknown option: $1"; exit 1 ;;
esac
done
ENV_FILE=".env_${ENV_NAME}"
source "$ENV_FILE"
```
---
## Build Phase
Build each connector before running tests. Record build failures — tests for failed connectors are automatically skipped.
```bash
build_connector() {
local name="$1"
local dir="connectors/$name"
case "$name" in
go-sdk|go-sql-driver)
(cd "$dir" && go build ./...) ;;
java-sdk|java-jdbc)
(cd "$dir" && mvn -q package -DskipTests) ;;
nodejs-sql-driver)
(cd "$dir" && npm install && npm run build) ;;
python-*|rest-api)
true ;; # No build step for Python
esac
}
```
---
## Test Execution with env -i
Each connector test runs in a clean subprocess. The `run_connector_auth` function:
1. Checks if this connector supports this auth type
2. Skips browser tests unless `PWAF_RUN_BROWSER_TESTS=1`
3. Builds the `env -i` environment with only auth-specific vars
4. Runs the connector with a timeout
5. Records PASS/FAIL/SKIP
```bash
run_connector_auth() {
local connector="$1"
local auth_type="$2"
# Skip if build failed
if build_failed "$connector"; then
record_result "$connector" "$auth_type" "SKIP" 0 "build-failed"
return
fi
# Skip browser tests unless enabled
if is_browser_auth "$auth_type" && [[ "$BROWSER_TESTS" != "1" ]]; then
record_result "$connector" "$auth_type" "SKIP" 0 "browser-disabled"
return
fi
# Build env -i vars for this auth type
local env_vars=(
"PATH=$PATH"
"HOME=$HOME"
"USER=${USER:-}"
"LANG=${LANG:-en_US.UTF-8}"
"DATABRICKS_HOST=$DATABRICKS_HOST"
"APP_AUTH_TYPE=$auth_type"
)
case "$auth_type" in
pat)
env_vars+=("DATABRICKS_TOKEN=$DATABRICKS_TOKEN") ;;
oauth_m2m)
env_vars+=(
"DATABRICKS_CLIENT_ID=$DATABRICKS_CLIENT_ID"
"DATABRICKS_CLIENT_SECRET=$DATABRICKS_CLIENT_SECRET"
) ;;
u2m_custom_oauth_app)
env_vars+=(
"DATABRICKS_U2M_CLIENT_ID=$DATABRICKS_U2M_CLIENT_ID"
"DATABRICKS_U2M_CLIENT_SECRET=${DATABRICKS_U2M_CLIENT_SECRET:-}"
"DATABRICKS_REDIRECT_URI=${DATABRICKS_REDIRECT_URI:-http://localhost:8080/callback}"
) ;;
u2m_token_env)
env_vars+=("DATABRICKS_ACCESS_TOKEN=$DATABRICKS_ACCESS_TOKEN") ;;
esac
# Add SQL-specific vars if connector needs them
if connector_needs_sql "$connector"; then
env_vars+=(
"DATABRICKS_HTTP_PATH=$DATABRICKS_HTTP_PATH"
"DATABRICKS_WAREHOUSE_ID=${DATABRICKS_WAREHOUSE_ID:-}"
)
fi
# Add Java-specific vars
if [[ "$connector" == java-* ]]; then
env_vars+=("JAVA_HOME=${JAVA_HOME:-}")
fi
local start
start=$(date +%s)
local exit_code=0
# macOS note: `timeout` is a GNU coreutils command not available on macOS by default
# (requires `brew install coreutils`). On macOS, omit `timeout` from the env -i call
# or guard it: command -v timeout &>/dev/null && TIMEOUT_CMD="timeout 120" || TIMEOUT_CMD=""
env -i "${env_vars[@]}" \
timeout 120 \
./connectors/"$connector"/run.sh \
> "$TMP_DIR/${connector}_${auth_type}.log" 2>&1 \
|| exit_code=$?
local duration=$(( $(date +%s) - start ))
if [[ $exit_code -eq 0 ]]; then
record_result "$connector" "$auth_type" "PASS" "$duration" ""
log "[pass] $connector / $auth_type → PASS (${duration}s)"
else
record_result "$connector" "$auth_type" "FAIL" "$duration" "exit=$exit_code"
log "[fail] $connector / $auth_type → FAIL (${duration}s)"
# Show last 20 lines of log on failure
tail -20 "$TMP_DIR/${connector}_${auth_type}.log" | while read -r line; do
log " $line"
done
fi
}
```
---
## Parallel Execution
Run multiple auth types concurrently by forking one subshell per auth type:
```bash
if [[ $PARALLEL -eq 1 ]]; then
IFS=',' read -ra par_auth_list <<< "$PARALLEL_AUTHS"
pids=()
for _par_auth in "${par_auth_list[@]}"; do
_par_result_file="$TMP_DIR/results_${_par_auth}.tsv"
touch "$_par_result_file"
(
RESULTS_FILE="$_par_result_file"
for connector in $ALL_CONNECTORS; do
[[ -n "$FILTER_APP" ]] && [[ "$connector" != "$FILTER_APP" ]] && continue
supports_auth "$connector" "$_par_auth" || continue
run_connector_auth "$connector" "$_par_auth"
done
) &
pids+=($!)
done
# Wait for all parallel jobs
set +e
for _pid in "${pids[@]}"; do wait "$_pid"; done
set -e
# Merge result files
for _par_auth in "${par_auth_list[@]}"; do
_f="$TMP_DIR/results_${_par_auth}.tsv"
[[ -f "$_f" ]] && cat "$_f" >> "$RESULTS_FILE"
done
fi
```
> **Why subshells, not background processes?** Each auth type modifies `RESULTS_FILE` and counters. Subshells get their own copies; variable changes in subshells don't propagate to the parent. After `wait`, merge the per-auth result files into the main `RESULTS_FILE`, then recount from the merged file.

## Usage Flags
| Flag | Purpose | Example |
|------|---------|---------|
| `--env <name>` | Load credentials from `.env_<name>` | `--env demo` |
| `--app <name>` | Test one connector only | `--app python-sdk` |
| `--auth <type>` | Test one auth type only | `--auth oauth_m2m` |
| `--parallel` | Run `PARALLEL_AUTHS` concurrently | `--parallel` |
| `--parallel-auths <list>` | Comma-separated auth types to parallelize | `--parallel-auths pat,oauth_m2m` |
| `--skip-build` | Skip build phase (re-run after fix) | `--skip-build` |
**Browser tests (U2M):**
```bash
PWAF_RUN_BROWSER_TESTS=1 ./tests/run_all_tests.sh --env demo --auth u2m_custom_oauth_app
```
---
## Output Prefix Convention
Each connector's run script should prefix its output lines with its connector name for easy log parsing:
```bash
# In connectors/python-sdk/run.sh
PREFIX="[pysdk]"
echo "$PREFIX Connecting with auth: $APP_AUTH_TYPE"
echo "$PREFIX PASS: tables.get returned samples.nyctaxi.trips"
```
The test runner captures this output per test. On failure, it shows the last 20 lines to help diagnose the issue.
---
## Pass/Fail/Skip Indicators
| Indicator | Meaning |
|-----------|---------|
| `PASS` | Connector exited 0 — all operations succeeded |
| `FAIL` | Connector exited non-zero — check log in `tmp/` |
| `SKIP (build-failed)` | Build phase failed for this connector — fix build first |
| `SKIP (browser-disabled)` | U2M browser test not run — set `PWAF_RUN_BROWSER_TESTS=1` |
| `SKIP (no-token)` | Required env var not set in `.env` file |
---
## Report Generation
After all tests complete, generate a Markdown report:
```bash
generate_report() {
local report_file="reports/test_report_${ENV_NAME}_$(date +%Y%m%dT%H%M%S).md"
mkdir -p reports
{
echo "# PWAF Connector Test Report"
echo ""
echo "**Date:** $(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')"
