# tmux-test
|
||
|
|
||
|
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/tmux-plugins/tmux-test.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/tmux-plugins/tmux-test)
|
||
|
|
||
|
A small framework for isolated testing of tmux plugins. Isolation is achieved by
|
||
|
running the tests in `Vagrant`. Works on [travis](travis-ci.org) too.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Extracted from [tmux plugin manager](https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm) and
|
||
|
[tmux-copycat](https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-copycat).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Dependencies: `Vagrant` (not required when running on travis).
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Setup
|
||
|
|
||
|
Let's say you made tmux plugin with the following file hierarchy:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```text
|
||
|
/tmux-plugin
|
||
|
|-- plugin.tmux
|
||
|
`-- scripts
|
||
|
`-- plugin_script.sh
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
From your project root directory (tmux-plugin/) execute the following shell
|
||
|
command to fetch `tmux-test` and add it as a submodule:
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ git submodule add https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-test.git lib/tmux-test
|
||
|
|
||
|
Run the `setup` script:
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ lib/tmux-test/setup
|
||
|
|
||
|
The project directory will now look like this (additions have comments):
|
||
|
|
||
|
```text
|
||
|
/tmux-plugin
|
||
|
|-- plugin.tmux
|
||
|
|-- run_tests # symlink, gitignored
|
||
|
|-- .gitignore # 2 lines appended to gitignore
|
||
|
|-- .travis.yml # added
|
||
|
|-- lib/tmux-test/ # git submodule
|
||
|
|-- scripts
|
||
|
| `-- plugin_script.sh
|
||
|
`-- tests # dir to put the tests in
|
||
|
`-- run_tests_in_isolation.sh # symlink, gitignored
|
||
|
`-- helpers
|
||
|
`-- helpers.sh # symlinked bash helpers, gitignored
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
`tmux-test` is now set up. You are ok to commit the additions to the repo.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Writing and running tests
|
||
|
|
||
|
A test is any executable with a name starting with `test_` in `tests/`
|
||
|
directory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now that you installed `tmux-test` let's create an example test.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- create a `tests/test_example.sh` file with the following content (it's a
|
||
|
`bash` script but it can be any executable):
|
||
|
|
||
|
#/usr/bin/env bash
|
||
|
|
||
|
CURRENT_DIR="$( cd "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" && pwd )"
|
||
|
|
||
|
# bash helpers provided by 'tmux-test'
|
||
|
source $CURRENT_DIR/helpers/helpers.sh
|
||
|
|
||
|
# installs plugin from current repo in Vagrant (or on Travis)
|
||
|
install_tmux_plugin_under_test_helper
|
||
|
|
||
|
# start tmux in background (plugin under test is sourced)
|
||
|
tmux new -d
|
||
|
|
||
|
# get first session name
|
||
|
session_name="$(tmux list-sessions -F "#{session_name}")"
|
||
|
|
||
|
# fail the test if first session name is not "0"
|
||
|
if [ "$session_name" == "0" ]; then
|
||
|
# fail_helper is also provided by 'tmux-test'
|
||
|
fail_helper "First session name is not '0' by default"
|
||
|
fi
|
||
|
|
||
|
# sets the right script exit code ('tmux-test' helper)
|
||
|
exit_helper
|
||
|
|
||
|
- make the test file executable with `$ chmod +x tests/test_example.sh`
|
||
|
- run the test by executing `./run_tests` from the project root directory
|
||
|
- the first invocation might take some time because Vagrant's ubuntu virtual
|
||
|
machine is downloading. You should see `Success, tests pass!` message when it's
|
||
|
done.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Check out more example test scripts in this project's [tests/ directory](tests/).
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Continuous integration
|
||
|
|
||
|
The setup script (`lib/tmux-test/setup`) added a `.travis.yml` file to the
|
||
|
project root. To setup continuous integration, just add/enable the project on
|
||
|
[travis](travis-ci.org).
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
- The `tests/` directory for tests and `lib/tmux-test/` for cloning `tmux-test`
|
||
|
into cannot be changed currently
|
||
|
- Don't run `tests/run_tests_in_isolation` script on your local development
|
||
|
environment. That's an internal test runner meant to be executed in an
|
||
|
isolated environment like `vagrant` or `travis`.<br/>
|
||
|
Use `./run_tests` script.
|
||
|
- You can use `KEEP_RUNNING=true ./run_tests` for faster test running cycle.
|
||
|
If this case `Vagrant` will keep running even after the tests are done.
|
||
|
- You can use `VAGRANT_CWD=lib/tmux-test/ vagrant ssh ubuntu` for ssh login to
|
||
|
`Vagrant`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Running `tmux-test` framework tests
|
||
|
|
||
|
`tmux-test` uses itself to test itself. To run framework tests:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- clone this project `$ git clone git@github.com:tmux-plugins/tmux-test.git`
|
||
|
- `$ cd tmux-test`
|
||
|
- run `$ ./run_framework_tests`
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Other goodies
|
||
|
|
||
|
- [tmux-copycat](https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-copycat) - a plugin for
|
||
|
regex searches in tmux and fast match selection
|
||
|
- [tmux-continuum](https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-continuum) - automatic
|
||
|
restoring and continuous saving of tmux env
