Testunit: run single test

ruby-talk
1

hello,

I'd like to be able to run one or two testroutines from a
Test::Unit::TestCase-object. Is that possible?

For example:

in test.rb:

···

====================
class TC_fe < Test::Unit::TestCase

    def test_plus
        assert_equal( 1+5, 6)
    end

    def test_minus
        assert_equal( 1-5, 6)
    end
end

==============
in do_it:

#!/usr/bin/ruby1.8

require 'test'

===================

Now all testroutines from TC_fe are run. Is it possible only to run
test_minus? Or the routines with the names I collect via command line
arguments?

thanks in advance!

Ruud

This should work
ruby test.rb -n test_minus

no. no succes.

The point is that my do_it script in the mail is simplified a bit. It
is more like

···

==================
#!/usr/bin/ruby1.8

require 'getoptlong'
require 'test'

opts = GetoptLong.new(
    #[ "--name", "-n", GetoptLong::REQUIRED_ARGUMENT ],
    [ "-h", GetoptLong::NO_ARGUMENT ],
    [ "-d", GetoptLong::NO_ARGUMENT ],
     [ "-v", GetoptLong::NO_ARGUMENT ]
)

It either runs all tests (when I define the -n option which is
commented out above), or it complains that -n is an invalid option.
I am afraid that I have to code some things the Test-objects do
magically when nothing is specified.

But I have no single clue as to what it should be.

Any ideas?

Lookup test\unit\autorunner.rb and see how it does its stuff.
Copy&paste the part that starts only single thread.
Or delegate to its command line parser.
