Test

Introduction

The KCL Test tool provides a simple testing framework to test KCL code. All KCL files in each directory are a set of tests, and each lambda starts with test_ in each *_test.k is a test case.

How to use

There is a KCL file hello.k:

schema Person:
    name: str = "kcl"
    age: int = 1

hello = Person {
    name = "hello kcl"
    age = 102
}

Build a test file hello_test.k:

test_person = lambda {
    a = Person{}
    assert a.name == 'kcl'
}
test_person_age = lambda {
    a = Person{}
    assert a.age == 1
}
test_person_ok = lambda {
    a = Person{}
    assert a.name == "kcl"
    assert a.age == 1
}

Execute the following command:

kcl test

The output is

test_person: PASS (2ms)
test_person_age: PASS (1ms)
test_person_ok: PASS (1ms)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PASS: 3/3

Failed Test Case

Modify hello_test.k to the following code to build failed test case:

test_person = lambda {
    a = Person{}
    assert a.name == 'kcl2'
}
test_person_age = lambda {
    a = Person{}
    assert a.age == 123
}
test_person_ok = lambda {
    a = Person{}
    assert a.name == "kcl2"
    assert a.age == 1
}

Run the command

kcl test

Output:

test_person: FAIL (6ms)
EvaluationError
 --> hello_test.k:3:1
  |
3 |     assert a.name == 'kcl2'
  |
  |


test_person_age: FAIL (3ms)
EvaluationError
 --> hello_test.k:7:1
  |
7 |     assert a.age == 123
  |
  |


test_person_ok: FAIL (2ms)
EvaluationError
  --> hello_test.k:11:1
   |
11 |     assert a.name == "kcl2"
   |
   |

FAIL: 3/3

Args

• kcl test path Execute the test of the specified directory. It can be omitted if it's the same directory that the command is executed
• kcl test --run=regexp Execute the test which matches patterns
• kcl test ./... Execute unit tests recursively

This command automates testing the packages named by the import paths.

'KCL test' re-compiles each package along with any files with names matching
the file pattern "*_test.k". These additional files can contain test functions
that starts with "test_*".

Usage:
  kcl test [flags]

Aliases:
  test, t

Examples:
  # Test whole current package recursively
  kcl test ./...

  # Test package named 'pkg'
  kcl test pkg

  # Test with the fail fast mode.
  kcl test ./... --fail-fast

  # Test with the regex expression filter 'test_func'
  kcl test ./... --run test_func


Flags:
      --fail-fast    Exist when meet the first fail test case in the test process.
  -h, --help         help for test
      --run string   If specified, only run tests containing this string in their names.
