* Dependencies
|
|
|
|
The only dependency is [[http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/ErtTestLibrary][ERT]] the Emacs testing library which ships with
|
|
Emacs24. If you are running an older version of Emacs and don't
|
|
already have ERT installed it can be installed from its old [[https://github.com/ohler/ert][git
|
|
repository]].
|
|
|
|
* Non-interactive batch testing from the command line
|
|
|
|
The simplest way to run the Org-mode test suite is from the command
|
|
line with the following invocation. Note that the paths below are
|
|
relative to the base of the Org-mode directory.
|
|
|
|
Also note that many of the current tests uses babel evaluation...
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir (expand-file-name "..")
|
|
# For Emacs earlier than 24, add -L /path/to/ert
|
|
emacs -Q --batch \
|
|
-L lisp/ -L testing/ -L testing/lisp -l lisp/org.el \
|
|
-l lisp/org-id.el -l testing/org-test.el \
|
|
--eval "(progn (org-reload) (setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate nil) \
|
|
(org-babel-do-load-languages 'org-babel-load-languages \
|
|
'((emacs-lisp . t) (sh . t) (org . t))))" \
|
|
-f org-test-run-batch-tests
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
The options in the above command are explained below.
|
|
|
|
| -Q | ignores any personal configuration ensuring a vanilla Emacs instance is used |
|
|
| --batch | runs Emacs in "batch" mode with no gui and termination after execution |
|
|
| -l | loads Org-mode and the org mode test suite defined in testing/org-test.el |
|
|
| --eval | reloads Org-mode and allows evaluation of code blocks by the tests |
|
|
| -f | actually runs the tests using the `org-test-run-batch-tests' function |
|
|
|
|
* Interactive testing from within Emacs
|
|
|
|
To run the Org-mode test suite from a current Emacs instance simply
|
|
load and run the test suite with the following commands.
|
|
|
|
1) First load the test suite.
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var here=(buffer-file-name)
|
|
(add-to-list 'load-path (file-name-directory here))
|
|
(require 'org-test)
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
2) Disable babel evaluation confirmation
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate)
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
3) Then run the test suite,
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(org-test-run-all-tests)
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
or when a test fails run it interactively and investigate the
|
|
problem in the ERT results buffer.
|
|
|
|
How to run one test:
|
|
Use this as a demo example of a failing test
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(ert-deftest test-org/org-link-escape-ascii-character-demo-of-fail ()
|
|
(should (string= "%5B" ;; expected is right
|
|
(org-link-escape "[")))
|
|
(should (string= "%5C" ;; expected is wrong, "%5D" would be right
|
|
(org-link-escape "]"))))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
or evaluate the ert-deftest form of the test you want to run. Then
|
|
"M-x ert RET test-org/org-link-escape-ascii-character-demo-of-fail RET"
|
|
When not visible yet switch to the ERT results buffer named
|
|
"\*ert\*". When a test failed the ERT results buffer shows the
|
|
details of the first "should" that failed. See
|
|
(info "(ert)Running Tests Interactively") on how to re-run, start
|
|
the debugger etc.
|
|
|
|
How to run all tests of a single test file:
|
|
"M-x ert-delete-all-tests RET", confirm. Open the file
|
|
./lisp/test-*.el, "M-x eval-buffer RET", "M-x ert RET t RET"
|
|
|
|
Consider to set pp-escape-newlines nil before running the test when
|
|
looking at "should" in the ERT results buffer. Especially when
|
|
using "l" to look at passed test results and possibly missing an
|
|
appropriate setting of pp-escape-newlines made only temporarily for
|
|
the running time of the test as e. g. tests using
|
|
org-test-table-target-expect-tblfm do.
|
|
|
|
* Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
- If the value of the =org-babel-no-eval-on-ctrl-c-ctrl-c= is non-nil
|
|
then it will result in some test failure, as there are tests which
|
|
rely on this behavior.
