Contributes to DOCS-1052 ## I have read the [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) file. YES ## What kind of change does this PR introduce? Resolves MDX linting errors related to "simple" where it applies. There was a couple cases that did not apply. For example, a product with "Simple" in the name. These changes are made in context, either by removing or using a more descriptive synonym like "minimal" or "basic". ## Tophatting 1. Read each of the diffs. 2. See that the text still makes sense in context. For extra due diligence, you can run `pnpm lint:mdx` locally and see the 'simple' errors that remain and whether they are worth addressing. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Updated many guide, tutorial, and troubleshooting pages with clearer “basic”/“minimal” wording across setup steps, local testing instructions, security cautions, and RLS guidance. * Refined headings, example descriptions, and inline comments for consistency (including deployment, MCP, metrics API, and search/function phrasing). * Improved readability with small snippet formatting tweaks (whitespace plus import/comment ordering) and added a self-hosting debugging note for Envoy admin endpoints via a short-lived `curl` container. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: github-actions[bot] <41898282+github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: coderabbitai[bot] <136622811+coderabbitai[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Chris Chinchilla <chris.ward@supabase.io> Co-authored-by: Nik Richers <nrichers@gmail.com>

To ensure that queries return the expected data, RLS policies are correctly applied and etc., we encourage you to write automated tests. There are essentially two approaches to testing:
|
|
|
|
- Firstly, you can write tests that interface with a Supabase client instance (same way you use Supabase client in your application code) in the programming language(s) you use in your application and using your favorite testing framework.
|
|
|
|
- Secondly, you can test through the Supabase CLI, which is a more low-level approach where you write tests in SQL.
|
|
|
|
# Testing using the Supabase CLI
|
|
|
|
You can use the Supabase CLI to test your database. The minimum required version of the CLI is [v1.11.4](https://github.com/supabase/cli/releases). To get started:
|
|
|
|
- [Install the Supabase CLI](/docs/guides/cli) on your local machine
|
|
|
|
## Creating a test
|
|
|
|
Create a tests folder inside the `supabase` folder:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkdir -p ./supabase/tests/database
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create a new file with the `.sql` extension which will contain the test.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
touch ./supabase/tests/database/hello_world.test.sql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Writing tests
|
|
|
|
All `sql` files use [pgTAP](/docs/guides/database/extensions/pgtap) as the test runner.
|
|
|
|
Write a test to check that our `auth.users` table has an ID column. Open `hello_world.test.sql` and add the following code:
|
|
|
|
```sql
|
|
begin;
|
|
select plan(1); -- only one statement to run
|
|
|
|
SELECT has_column(
|
|
'auth',
|
|
'users',
|
|
'id',
|
|
'id should exist'
|
|
);
|
|
|
|
select * from finish();
|
|
rollback;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Running tests
|
|
|
|
To run the test, you can use:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
supabase test db
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will produce the following output:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ supabase test db
|
|
supabase/tests/database/hello_world.test.sql .. ok
|
|
All tests successful.
|
|
Files=1, Tests=1, 1 wallclock secs ( 0.01 usr 0.00 sys + 0.04 cusr 0.02 csys = 0.07 CPU)
|
|
Result: PASS
|
|
```
