# BigchainDB Server Tests
## The bigchaindb/tests/ Folder
## The tests/ Folder
The `bigchaindb/tests/` folder is where all the tests for BigchainDB Server live. Most of them are unit tests. Integration tests are in the [`bigchaindb/tests/integration/` folder](./integration/).

A few notes:
- [`bigchaindb/tests/common/`](./common/) contains self-contained tests only testing
- [`tests/common/`](./common/) contains self-contained tests only testing
[`bigchaindb/common/`](../bigchaindb/common/)
- [`bigchaindb/tests/db/`](./db/) contains tests requiring the database backend (e.g. RethinkDB)

## Writing Tests
We write unit and integration tests for our Python code using the [pytest](http://pytest.org/latest/) framework. You can use the tests in the `bigchaindb/tests/` folder as templates or examples.

## Running Tests
### Running Tests Directly
If you installed BigchainDB Server using `pip install bigchaindb`, then you didn't install the tests. Before you can run all the tests, you must install BigchainDB from source. The [`bigchaindb/CONTRIBUTING.md` file](../CONTRIBUTING.md) has instructions for how to do that.

Next, make sure you have RethinkDB running in the background (e.g. using `rethinkdb --daemon`).
