test ...
That way all of the commands in your tests will succeed or fail. If
- you must ignore the return value of something (e.g., the return
- after unsetting a variable that was already unset is unportable) it's
- best to indicate so explicitly with a semicolon:
-
- unset HLAGH;
- git merge hla &&
- git push gh &&
- test ...
+ you must ignore the return value of something, consider using a
+ helper function (e.g. use sane_unset instead of unset, in order
+ to avoid unportable return value for unsetting a variable that was
+ already unset), or prepending the command with test_might_fail or
+ test_must_fail.
- Check the test coverage for your tests. See the "Test coverage"
below.
Like test_expect_success this function can optionally use a three
argument invocation with a prerequisite as the first argument.
- - test_expect_code [<prereq>] <code> <message> <script>
-
- Analogous to test_expect_success, but pass the test if it exits
- with a given exit <code>
-
- test_expect_code 1 'Merge with d/f conflicts' 'git merge "merge msg" B master'
-
- test_debug <script>
This takes a single argument, <script>, and evaluates it only
'Perl API' \
"$PERL_PATH" "$TEST_DIRECTORY"/t9700/test.pl
+ - test_expect_code <exit-code> <command>
+
+ Run a command and ensure that it exits with the given exit code.
+ For example:
+
+ test_expect_success 'Merge with d/f conflicts' '
+ test_expect_code 1 git merge "merge msg" B master
+ '
+
- test_must_fail <git-command>
Run a git command and ensure it fails in a controlled way. Use
