Test helpers for magicpatch

Install

npm install magicpatch-test

API

The module returns a function. Calling the function returns the following helpers.

• getMagic(name)
  • name: A string describing the name of the magic, without any leading symbols (e.g. "echo", not "%echo")
  • return value: An object describing the magic matching name or undefined if a matching magic doesn't exist
• runCode(code, showOutput)
  • code: A string of JavaScript code to run, including any magics. Code is run via magicpatch.
  • showOutput: true to print output to stdout. Default is false.
  • returns value: A Promise that resolves to an object with the return value, stdout, and stderr from the last line of the code
    • stdout: An array of lines printed to stdout, seperated by newlines (\n)
    • stderr: An array of lines printed to stderr, seperated by newlines (\n)
    • val: The return value of the last line of the code that was run
• testMagic(code, val, stdout, stderr, showOutput)
  • code: Passed to runCode (see above)
  • val: The expected return value of the code. Peforms "deepEqual" evaluation if val is an object, otherwise "strictEqual".
  • stdout: An array of lines that are expected to be printed to stdout. Throws if this array doesn't match the return values of runCode.
    • If the array member is a string, comparison is done with "startsWith" (so that trailing newlines or other differences can be ignored).
    • If the array member is a RegExp, the comparison is done via RegExp.
    • If the array member is a function, the value is passed to a function and the function is expected to return true if the comparison passes or false otherwise.
  • stderr: Same as stdout, but the array is compared against stderr.
  • showOutput: Passed to runCode (see above)
  • return value: A Promise that resolves when the evaluation is successful, and rejects if the evaluation failed.

Example

const {testMagic} = require("magicpatch-test")(); // XXX: note function call
// require("magicpatch-test")("/my/magicpatch/location");

describe("echo", function() {
    it("prints line", async function() {
        await testMagic(
            // magic command
            "%echo this is a test",
            // return value
            undefined,
            // stdout
            ["this is a test\n"],
            // stderr
            [],
            // show output
            // true,
        );
    });
});
