Static testing

Static tests allow you to verify if all static resources of the package are valid, e.g. are all fields of the sample_event.json documented. They don’t require any additional configuration (unless you would like to skip them).

Static tests cover the following resources:

1. Sample event for a data stream - verification if the file uses only documented fields.

Static tests don’t require the Elastic Stack to be up and running. Simply navigate to the package’s root folder (or any sub-folder under it) and run the following command.

elastic-package test static

If you want to run pipeline tests for specific data streams in a package, navigate to the package’s root folder (or any sub-folder under it) and run the following command.

elastic-package test static --data-streams <data stream 1>[,<data stream 2>,...]
