Automated Tests
The Unit-Tests do not follow exactly the file structure of Powerlevel9k itself,
but we try to reflect the structure as much as possible. All tests are located
under test/
. Segment specific tests under test/segments/
(one file per
segment).
Installation
In order to execute the tests you need to install shunit2
, which is a
submodule. To install the submodule, you can execute
git submodule init && git submodule update
.
Executing tests
The tests are shell scripts on their own. So you can execute them right away.
To execute all tests you could just execute ./test/suite.spec
.
General Test Structure
The tests usually have a setUp()
function which is executed before every
test function. Speaking of, test functions must be prefixed with test
. In
the tests, you can do different Assertions.
It is always a good idea to mock the program you want to test (just have a
look at other tests), so that the testrunner does not have to have all
programs installed.
Travis
We use Travis for Continuous Integration. This
service executes our tests after every push. For now, we need to tell travis
where to find the tests, which is what happens in the .travis.yml
file.
Manual Testing
If unit tests are not sufficient (e.g. you have an issue with your prompt that occurs only in a specific ZSH framework) then you can use either Docker or or our Vagrant.
Docker
This is the easiest to use if you have Docker already installed and running.
The command ./test-in-docker
should make it fairly easy to get into a running
container with the framework of your choice.
Examples:
# Test Antigen with the oldest version of ZSH
$ ./test-in-docker antigen
# Test Prezto with ZSH version 5.2
$ ./test-in-docker --zsh 5.2 prezto
You can get Docker at https://www.docker.com/community-edition.
Note: Not all frameworks work with all versions of ZSH (or the underlying OS).
Vagrant
Currently there are two test VMs. test-vm
is an Ubuntu machine with several
pre-installed ZSH frameworks. And there is test-bsd-vm
which is a FreeBSD!
For how to run the machines see here.
