# Tests

We strive to produce quality code and improve Tracetest rapidly and safely. Therefore, we have a full suite of both front-end and back-end tests. Cypress tests are running against the front-end code and (surprise, surprise) Tracetest against the back-end code. You can see the [test runs here](https://github.com/kubeshop/tracetest/actions/workflows/pull-request.yaml), and a blog post describing our [testing pipelines here](https://tracetest.io/blog/50-faster-ci-pipelines-with-github-actions).

Alternatively, we support setting a series of environment variables which can contain the connection information for the Postgres instance. If these environment variables are set, they will be used by the Tracetest server to connect to the database.

The list of environment variables and example values is:

This page showcases getting started with Tracetest Core by using the Tracetest CLI, Docker, or Kubernetes.

This simple installation includes a demo app called [Pokeshop](/live-examples/pokeshop/overview.md) that will be installed alongside Tracetest Core. It shows how to configure OpenTelemetry and Tracetest Core and the architecture of the Pokeshop sample app.

## Install the Tracetest CLI

<GtagInstallCliTabs></GtagInstallCliTabs>

:::tip Want more info?
Read the CLI installation reference [here](/cli/cli-installation-reference.md).
:::

## Install the Tracetest Server

Tracetest Core runs as a standalone container. It runs a Server and exposes a Web UI on port `11633`.

You have three options to install Tracetest Server:

- Using the Tracetest CLI to guide your installation in Docker and Kubernetes.
- Using the official [Helm chart](https://github.com/kubeshop/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/tracetest).
- Using the [Docker Compose Quick Start with the Pokeshop Sample App](https://github.com/kubeshop/tracetest/tree/main/examples/quick-start-pokeshop).

<Tabs groupId="installation">

{`How do you want to run Tracetest? [type to search]:

</CodeBlock>

Choose to install Tracetest with the OpenTelemetry Collector and the [Pokeshop](/live-examples/pokeshop/overview.md) sample app.

```text title="Expected output:"
Do you have OpenTelemetry based tracing already set up, or would you like us to install a demo tracing environment and app? [type to search]:
I have a tracing environment already. - Just install Tracetest.
> Just learning tracing! Install Tracetest, OpenTelemetry Collector and the sample app.
```

Choosing any option, this installer will create a `tracetest` directory in the current directory and add a `docker-compose.yaml` file to it.

- If you choose the first option, the `docker-compose.yaml` will have only Tracetest Core and its dependencies.
- **By choosing the second option, a sample app called [Pokeshop](/live-examples/pokeshop/overview.md) will be installed with Tracetest Core, allowing you to create sample tests right away!**

<b>Click to view Pokeshop Sample App Architecture</b>
</summary>

Here's the Architecture of the Pokeshop Sample App:

- an **API** that serves client requests,
- a **Worker** who deals with background processes.

The communication between the API and Worker is made using a `RabbitMQ` queue, and both services emit telemetry data to OpenTelemetry Collector and communicate with a Postgres database.

Tracetest triggers tests against the Node.js API.

<CodeBlock
language="bash"

</CodeBlock>

This will start the Tracetest Server and expose the Web UI on [`http://localhost:11633`](http://localhost:11633).

```

Choosing any option, this installer will create a `tracetest` namespace in the Kubernetes context you choose and create deployments for Tracetest Core and its dependencies.

- If you choose the first option, the `tracetest` namespace will only contain Tracetest Core and its dependencies.
- **By choosing the second option, a sample app called [Pokeshop](/live-examples/pokeshop/overview.md) will be installed in a `demo` namespace alongside Tracetest Core, allowing you to create sample tests right away!**

<TabItem value="helm" label="Helm Chart">

First, be sure that you have [Helm](https://helm.sh/) installed in your machine.

The Tracetest Helm charts are located [here](https://github.com/kubeshop/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/tracetest).

You can install them locally on your machine with the command:

```bash title=Terminal
helm repo add kubeshop https://kubeshop.github.io/helm-charts
helm repo update
```

After that, you can install Tracetest with `helm install`:

```bash title=Terminal
helm install tracetest kubeshop/tracetest --namespace=tracetest --create-namespace
```

Or, generate a manifest file and apply it manually in your Kubernetes cluster:

```bash title=Terminal
helm template tracetest kubeshop/tracetest > tracetest-kubernetes-manifests.yaml
kubectl apply -f ./tracetest-kubernetes-manifests.yaml
```

**Access the Tracetest Server by port forwarding to the Tracetest `service`.**

```bash title=Terminal
kubectl --kubeconfig <path-to-your-home>/.kube/config --context <your-cluster-context> --namespace tracetest port-forward svc/tracetest 11633

:::tip Don't have OpenTelemetry installed?
Tracetest requires that you have [OpenTelemetry instrumentation](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/instrumentation/) added in your code, and configured [sending traces to a trace data store](/configuration/connecting-to-data-stores/jaeger.md), or [Tracetest directly](/configuration/connecting-to-data-stores/opentelemetry-collector.md).
