how to run ejabberd tests and write new unit tests in erlang?

How do I run ejabberd tests in the test folder? I installed rebar and made sure to have a running ejabberd server and followed the steps here to: https://docs.ejabberd.im/developer/extending-ejabberd/testing/ to run the test suite.

But I get the following error:

[ec2-user@ip-173-33-33-236 ejabberd]$CT_BACKENDS=mnesia rebar ct suites=ejabberd groups=mnesia
WARN:  Missing plugins: [rebar3_hex]

How do I run these unit tests? Also, is there a recommended framework to write ejabberd/erlang unit tests? I basically want to run some specific functions in the module for various inputs and make sure the output is correct and I do need the server part running for this?

Any suggestions/pointers would be really appreciated. Thanks!

You don't mention what ejabberd and erlang version, so I assume they are the latest available.

How do I run these unit tests?

Notice that ejabberd already includes the rebar program. So better use that one instead of whatever you have installed. I simply run this, and works correctly:

CT_BACKENDS=mnesia ./rebar ct suites=ejabberd groups=mnesia

I do need the server part running for this?

No need for ejabberd to be started when running that command. At least I stop it before running the tests...

Sorry, no idea.
