Getting started

Requirements

• Node.js 18+ and npm
• Python 3.9+ (for Pytest)
• VS Code (latest)
• AWS CLI (for IAM flows) with configured profiles
• (Optional) Allure:
  • npm i -D allure-commandline
  • pip install allure-pytest

Build

npm i
npm run watch   # dev loop (used by VS Code debug)
# or
npm run build

If the VS Code debugger says “Waiting for preLaunchTask ‘watch’…”, ensure npm run watch exists and TypeScript compiles.

Install & set up

1. Install the extension in VS Code.

2. Create a folder with schema.graphql or schema.introspection.json.

3. (Optional) Configure LLM provider in settings: appsyncTestGen.llm.*.

4. (Optional) Configure AWS: appsyncTestGen.connection.region/profile for IAM flows.

First run

1. Fetch schema (API Key / IAM / Cognito).

2. (Optional) Fetch resolvers using IAM.

3. Build contexts from the schema.

4. Generate test plans (LLM).

5. Materialize tests (Pytest/Jest).

6. Run tests and (optionally) serve Allure.

Allure (Pytest)

pip install allure-pytest
pytest contexts --alluredir ./allure-results
npx allure serve ./allure-results
