# specs
These are integration tests that execute the `deno` binary. They supersede the
`itest` macro found in the `tests/integration` folder and are the preferred way
of writing tests that use the `deno` binary.
## Structure
Tests must have the following directory structure:
```
tests/specs/<category_name>/<test_name>/__test__.json
```
## Test filtering
To run a specific test, run:
```
cargo test specs::category_name::test_name
```
Or just the following, though it might run other tests:
```
cargo test test_name
```
To run showing the output of every test use `-- --nocapture` (note: this will
cause tests to run sequentially instead of in parallel):
```
cargo test test_name -- --nocapture
```
## `__test__.json` file
This file describes the test(s) to execute and the steps to execute. A basic
example looks like:
```json
{
"args": "run main.js",
"output": "main.out"
}
```
This will run `deno run main.js` then assert that the output matches the text in
`main.out`.
Or another example that runs multiple steps:
```json
{
"tempDir": true,
"steps": [{
"args": "cache main.ts",
"output": "cache.out"
}, {
"args": "run main.ts",
"output": "error.out",
"exitCode": 1
}]
}
```
Or if you want to run several tests at the same time:
```json
{
"tests": {
"ignore_dir": {
"args": "run script.ts",
"output": "script.out"
},
"some_other_test": {
"args": "run other.ts",
"output": "other.out"
}
}
}
```
### Top level properties
- `repeat` (number) - Number of times to repeat a test.
- `tempDir` (boolean) - Copy all the non-test files to a temporary directory and
execute the command in that temporary directory.
- By default, tests are executed with a current working directory of the test,
but this may not be desirable for tests such as ones that create a
node_modules directory.
### Step properties
When writing a single step, these may be at the top level rather than nested in
a "steps" array or "tests" object.
- `args` - A string (that will be spilt on whitespace into an args array) or an
array of arguments.
- `output` - Path to use to assert the output or text (must end with an .out
extension) _or_ text to pattern match against the output.
- `flaky` - Step should be repeated until success a maximum of 3 times.
- `if` (`"windows"`, `"linux"`, `"mac"`, `"unix"`) - Whether to run this step.
- `exitCode` (number) - Expected exit code.
### Auto-complete
To get auto-complete for these files, add the following to a local
`.vscode/settings.json` file:
```json
{
"json.schemas": [{
"fileMatch": [
"__test__.jsonc"
],
"url": "./tests/specs/schema.json"
}]
}
```
## `.out` files
`.out` files are used to assert the output when running a test or test step.
Within the file, you can use the following for matching:
- `[WILDCARD]` - match any text at the wildcard
- `[WILDLINE]` - match any text on the current line
- `[WILDCHAR]` - match the next character
- `[WILDCHARS(5)]` - match any of the next 5 characters
- `[UNORDERED_START]` followed by many lines then `[UNORDERED_END]` will match
the lines in any order (useful for non-deterministic output)
- `[# example]` - line comments start with `[#` and end with `]`
