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.expand_path(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:

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
