A plugin to integrate with subscriptions and talk to the testing server (linode) to execute tests, output reports and provide test configuration
Install
Upload it under Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin, then activate.
Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:
wp plugin install https://github.com/pie/presstest-companion-plugin/releases/download/1.2.0/presstest-companion.zipWordPress plugin that connects a site to the Presstest automated browser testing service. It provides an admin interface for selecting and running test suites, viewing results, and managing connection settings.
How it works
- An administrator opens the Presstest admin page and selects one or more test suites to run
- The plugin POSTs a job request to the Presstest server (
api.presstest.io) via its own REST API, keeping the API key server-side - The Presstest server queues the job, runs it in a Playwright container, and POSTs the JSON results back to this site's REST endpoint (
/wp-json/presstest-companion/v1/report) - The callback is authenticated with a per-site secret token generated on plugin activation (
X-Presstest-Token) - Results are stored in the database and displayed in the Reports tab
Settings
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| API Key | The PRESSTEST_API_KEY value from the Presstest server's .env file |
| Report URL | Auto-generated — the Presstest server posts results here |
| Report Token | Auto-generated on activation — authenticates the results callback |
Adding test suites
Test suites are defined in two places that must stay in sync:
1. The Presstest server (all-tests/ directory)
Each suite is a directory inside all-tests/ on the Presstest server containing one or more _test.js Playwright test files:
all-tests/
wordpress-core/ ← suite directory name
login_test.js
woocommerce-core/
checkout_test.js
my-new-suite/ ← add a new directory here
my_test.jsSee the Presstest server README for full details on writing tests.
2. This plugin (src/apps/presstest-app/data/tests.js)
Each entry in the tests array corresponds to a directory on the server. The value must exactly match the directory name:
export const tests = [
{
name: 'WordPress Core', // display label shown in the UI
value: 'wordpress-core', // must match the all-tests/ directory name
},
{
name: 'My New Suite',
value: 'my-new-suite', // must match all-tests/my-new-suite/
},
];After editing tests.js, deploy the plugin for the new suite to appear in the Run Tests tab.
