Test::Run

Test STDOUT, STDERR and exit code of processes. Custom tests and operators can be used for testing output as well.

NAME

Test::Run - A module for testing output of processes.

SYNOPSIS

use Test::Run :runs_ok;

runs_ok :args«$*EXECUTABLE -e 'put "Hi!"'», :out("Hi!\n"), 'Simple STDOUT test';
# or
Test::Run::runs_ok :args«$*EXECUTABLE -e 'put "Hi!"'», :out("Hi!\n"), 'Simple STDOUT test with full sub name';

runs_ok :args«$*EXECUTABLE -»,
        :in('put "Hi!"; note "Bye!"; exit 1'), :out("Hi!\n"), :err("Bye!\n"), :exitcode(1),
        'Output test';

# Using custom test function
use Test::Differences;
runs_ok :args«@args[] $command», :out($expected_data), "Prints correctly", :test_stdout(&eq_or_diff);

INSTALLATION

You need to have Raku and zef, then run:

zef install Test::Run:auth<zef:CIAvash>

or if you have cloned the repo:

zef install .

TESTING

prove -ve 'raku -I.' --ext rakutest

DESCRIPTION

Test::Run is a module for testing STDOUT, STDERR and exitcode of processes.

SUBS

sub runs_ok

sub runs_ok(
    Str $description?, :@args!, :$in, :$out, :$err, Int :$exitcode = 0,
    Bool:D :$bin = Bool::False,
    Bool:D :$bin_stdout = $bin,
    Bool:D :$bin_stderr = $bin,
    :$op = &[~~],
    :$op_stdout is copy = $op,
    :$op_stderr is copy = $op,
    :&test_stdout,
    :&test_stderr
) returns Mu

Takes program arguments, optionally STDIN, expected STDOUT and STDERR and exitcode, binary mode(can be separate for STDOUT and STDERR), operator used for cmp-ok (can be separate for STDOUT and STDERR), custom test function to run on STDOUT and/or STDERR.

Then runs 3 tests for exitcode, STDERR, STDOUT in a subtest

Bool:D :$bin

Whether output is binary(Blob)

Bool:D :$bin_stdout

Whether STDOUT is binary(Blob)

Bool:D :$bin_stderr

Whether STDERR is binary(Blob)

Mu $op

Comparison operator for cmp-ok

Mu $op_stdout

Comparison operator for cmp-ok and STDOUT

Mu $op_stderr

Comparison operator for cmp-ok and STDERR

Callable &test_stdout

Custom test function for STDOUT

Callable &test_stderr

Custom test function for STDERR

sub run_proc

sub run_proc(:@args, :$in, Bool:D :$bin = Bool::False) returns List

Runs process with Proc, returns a list of STDOUT, STDERR, exitcode.

Currently unused because it returns exitcode 1 for nonexistent programs, sinks & dies when handles are closed

See https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/1590 and https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/3720

sub run_proc_async

sub run_proc_async(
    :@args,
    :$in,
    Bool:D :$bin = Bool::False,
    Bool:D :$bin_stdout = $bin,
    Bool:D :$bin_stderr = $bin
) returns List

Runs process with Proc::Async, returns a list of STDOUT, STDERR, exitcode
