CPM.cmake Integration Tests
The integration tests of CPM.cmake are written in Ruby. They use a custom integration test framework which extends the Test::Unit library.
They require Ruby 2.7.0 or later.
Running tests
To run all tests from the repo root execute:
$ ruby test/integration/runner.rb
The runner will run all tests and generate a report of the exeuction.
The current working directory doesn't matter. If you are in <repo-root>/test/integration, you can run simply $ ruby runner.rb.
You can execute with --help ($ ruby runner.rb --help) to see various configuration options of the runner like running individual tests or test cases, or ones that match a regex.
The tests themselves are situated in the Ruby scripts prefixed with test_. <repo-root>/test/integration/test_*. You can also run an individual test script. For example to only run the basics test case, you can execute $ ruby test_basics.rb
The tests generate CMake scripts and execute CMake and build toolchains. By default they do this in a directory they generate in your temp path (/tmp/cpm-test/ on Linux). You can configure the working directory of the tests with an environment variable CPM_INTEGRATION_TEST_DIR. For example $ CPM_INTEGRATION_TEST_DIR=~/mycpmtest; ruby runner.rb
Writing tests
Writing tests makes use of the custom integration test framework in lib.rb. It is a relatively small extension of Ruby's Test::Unit library.
The Gist
- Tests cases are Ruby scripts in this directory. The file names must be prefixed with
test_ - The script should
require_relative './lib'to allow for individual execution (or else if will only be executable from the runner) - A test case file should contain a single class which inherits from
IntegrationTest. It can contain multiple classes, but that's bad practice as it makes individual execution harder and implies a dependency between the classes. - There should be no dependency between the test scripts. Each should be executable individually and the order in which multiple ones are executed mustn't matter.
- The class should contain methods, also prefixed with
test_which will be executed by the framework. In most cases there would be a single test method per class. - In case there are multiple test methods, they will be executed in the order in which they are defined.
- The test methods should contain assertions which check for the expected state of things at varous points of the test's execution.
