Distribution.Simple.Test

Description

This is the entry point into testing a built package. It performs the "`./setup test`" action. It runs test suites designated in the package description and reports on the results.

test

Arguments

:: PackageDescription | information from the .cabal file
-> LocalBuildInfo | information from the configure step
-> TestFlags | flags sent to test
-> IO () |

Perform the "`./setup test`" action.

runTests :: [Test] -> IO ()

The test runner used in library TestSuite stub executables. Runs a list of `Test`s. An executable calling this function is meant to be invoked as the child of a Cabal process during `./setup test`. A `TestSuiteLog`, provided by Cabal, is read from the standard input; it supplies the name of the test suite and the location of the machine-readable test suite log file. Human-readable log information is written to the standard output for capture by the calling Cabal process.

writeSimpleTestStub

Arguments

:: TestSuite | library `TestSuite` for which a stub is being created
-> FilePath | path to directory where stub source should be located
-> IO () |

Write the source file for a library `TestSuite` stub executable.

stubFilePath :: TestSuite -> FilePath

The filename of the source file for the stub executable associated with a library `TestSuite`.

stubName :: TestSuite -> FilePath

The name of the stub executable associated with a library `TestSuite`.

data PackageLog

Logs all test results for a package, broken down first by test suite and then by test case.
