📒 Usage

``` A functional testing framework

Usage: vangelis [OPTIONS] ...

Arguments: ... Path to one or multiple test file(s) to be executed

Options: --diff Display the got/expected difference for each failed test in the shell --ci Stop the execution and display the got/expected difference if a test didn't succeed -h, --help Print help -V, --version Print version ```

🗂 Test File

Test files must have the following pattern in toml

```rs // Definitions

Default { exitstatus: Option, timeout: Option, workingdir: Option, runson: Option>, unixshell: Option, windows_shell: Option, }

Test { cmd: String, stdin: Option, stdout: Option, stderr: Option, exitstatus: Option, timeout: Option, workingdir: Option, runson: Option>, unixshell: Option, windows_shell: Option, }

// Test file content

TestFile { default: Option, test: Map, } ```

📝 Example

```toml

testfile.toml

[default]

use powershell as default shell on windows

windows_shell = "powershell"

[test.echo] cmd = "echo hello" stdout = "hello\n"

[test.power]

this test can only run under unix systems

runs_on = ["linux", "macos"] cmd = "whoami" stdout = "root\n"

[test.sleep]

this test will timeout

timeout = 5 cmd = "sleep 10" stdout = "" stderr = ""

[test."print args"] cmd = "python3 print_args.py hey brother" stdout = """ hey brother """ stderr = ""

[test."print stdin"] cmd = "python3 print_stdin.py" stdin = """ hey brother """ stdout = """ hey

brother

""" stderr = "" ```

To run this example, enter the following command:

sh vangelis examples/testfile.toml

⚙️ Parameters

```toml [cmd]

Command to run (mandatory value)

Example:

Build a software and ensure the build takes less that 300 seconds:

cmd = "make" timeout = 300 ```

```toml [stdout]

Expected stdout of the command

Example:

I want to check if I have root privileges:

cmd = "whoami" stdout = "root\n" ```

```toml [stderr]

Expected stderr of the command

Example:

I Expect this error message for the following command:

cmd = "ls /root"

expected stderr

stderr = "ls: cannot open directory '/root': Permission denied\n" ```

```toml [stdin]

stdin content to be forwarded to the command

Example:

cmd = "cat"

stdin content

stdin = "hello"

expected stdout

stdout = "hello" ```

```toml [exit_status]

Set the expected exit status of a command

Default value:

exit_status = 0

Example:

The test will expect a return value of 1

exit_status = 1 cmd = "git" ```

```toml [timeout]

Set the timeout of a command (in seconds)

Default value:

timeout = 60

Example:

The command must not exceed 5 seconds

timeout = 5 cmd = "sleep 10" ```

```toml [runs_on]

An array of strings that defines on witch os the test is allowed to run

Default value:

runs_on = ["linux", "windows", "macos"]

Example:

The test will only run under linux

runs_on = ["linux"] ```

```toml [unix_shell]

Set the shell to use to run commands under unix systems

Default value:

unix_shell = "sh"

Example:

The command will run under "zsh" instead of "sh" under linux

unix_shell = "zsh" ```

```toml [windows_shell]

Set the shell to use to run commands under windows

Default value:

windows_shell = "cmd"

Example:

The command will run under "powershell" instead of "cmd" under windows

windows_shell = "powershell" ```

```toml [working_dir]

Set the working directory of a test

by default, the path is set where the testfile is located

working_dir value can be a relative or a full path

Default value

working_dir = "."

Examples:

Set the working directory of the command to "/tmp"

working_dir = "/tmp" cmd = "ls"

Set the working directory of the command to the parent folder of the testfile

working_dir = ".." cmd = "ls" ```
