# Running database tests
Running database tests locally require:
* A systemd based Linux distro.
* A recent version of [rkt](https://github.com/coreos/rkt) installed.
The `standup.sh` script in the SQL directory is used to run databases in
containers with systemd daemonizing the process.
```
$ sudo ./storage/sql/standup.sh create postgres
Starting postgres. To view progress run
journalctl -fu dex-postgres
Running as unit dex-postgres.service.
To run tests export the following environment variables:
export DEX_POSTGRES_DATABASE=postgres; export DEX_POSTGRES_USER=postgres; export DEX_POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres; export DEX_POSTGRES_HOST=172.16.28.3:5432
```
Exporting the variables will cause the database tests to be run, rather than
skipped.
```
$ # sqlite takes forever to compile, be sure to install test dependencies
$ go test -v -i ./storage/sql
$ go test -v ./storage/sql
```
When you're done, tear down the unit using the `standup.sh` script.
```
$ sudo ./storage/sql/standup.sh destroy postgres
```
