How To
Run all tests
To make it easy to run all your tests, you can add a run_test.rb
script
to your test
directory. A simple example might look like:
base_dir = File.(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), ".."))
lib_dir = File.join(base_dir, "lib")
test_dir = File.join(base_dir, "test")
$LOAD_PATH.unshift(lib_dir)
require 'test/unit'
exit Test::Unit::AutoRunner.run(true, test_dir)
Then it's easy to run tests via the command line with,
$ ruby test/run_test.rb
Change test runner via the command line
The output format can be changed via the command line with
the --runner
option. Simply tack it to the end:
ruby test/run_test.rb --runner tap
Configure test-unit per-project
Test::Unit reads test-unit.yml
or .test-unit.yml
in the current working
directory as Test::Unit's configuration file. It can contain the following
settings:
- color scheme definitions
- test runner to be used
- test runner options
- test collector to be used
Except color scheme definitions, all of them can be specified by command line option.
Here are sample color scheme definitions:
color_schemes:
inverted:
success:
name: red
bold: true
failure:
name: green
bold: true
other_scheme:
...
Here are the syntax of color scheme definitions:
color_schemes:
SCHEME_NAME:
EVENT_NAME:
name: COLOR_NAME
intensity: BOOLEAN
bold: BOOLEAN
italic: BOOLEAN
underline: BOOLEAN
...
...
Definition | Description |
---|---|
SCHEME_NAME | the name of the color scheme |
EVENT_NAME | success, failure, pending, omission, notification, error |
COLOR_NAME | black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan, white |
BOOLEAN | true or false |
You can use the above 'inverted' color scheme with the following configuration:
runner: console
console_options:
color_scheme: inverted
color_schemes:
inverted:
success:
name: red
bold: true
failure:
name: green
bold: true
