the-real-doctest v0.1.3

The Real Doctest

This library provides commands to execute TSDoc @example tags in Typescript.

We also have a Visual Studio Code extension that uses this library directly from the IDE:

Usage

npx the-real-doctest test src/lib/utils.ts

Expression statements with ==, !=, === or !== will be checked for equality

// src/lib/utils.ts

/**
 * @example f(0) == 10
 * @example f(0) != 10 // This should fail
 * @example f(10) == 20
 * @example f(20) != 20
 * @example f(20) == 20 // This should fail
 */
function f(x: number) {
  return x + 10
}

Output:

3 doctests succeeded
2 doctests failed
At src/lib/utils.ts:3
 >> 10 != 10
At src/lib/utils.ts:6
 >> 30 == 20

Help
