node-test-runner

Runs elm-test suites from Node.js

Installation

npm install -g elm-test

Usage

elm-test install foo/bar # Install the foo/bar package to "test-dependencies"
elm-test init            # `elm-test install elm-explorations/test` and create tests/Example.elm
elm-test                 # Run all exposed Test values in *.elm files in tests/
elm-test Foo.elm         # Run all exposed Test values in Foo.elm

Configuration

`install`

Like elm install, except it installs to the test-dependencies field of your project's elm.json file instead of dependencies.

elm-test install elm/regex

`init`

Runs elm-test install elm-explorations/test and then creates a tests/Example.elm example test to get you started.

Afterwards, you can run elm-test with no arguments to try out the example.

`--compiler`

The --compiler flag can be used to use a version of the Elm compiler that has not been installed globally.

npm install elm
elm-test --compiler ./node_modules/.bin/elm

`--seed`

Allow running the tests with a predefined seed, rather than a randomly generated seed. This is especially helpful when trying to reproduce a failing fuzz-test.

elm-test --seed=12345

`--fuzz`

Define how many times a fuzzer should run. Defaults to 100

elm-test --fuzz=500

`--report`

Specify which reporter to use for reporting your test results. Valid options are:

console (default): pretty, human readable formatted output
json: every event will be written to stdout as a json-encoded object
junit: junit-compatible xml will be written to stdout

elm-test --report=json

`--version`

Displays the version of the current elm-test.

$ elm-test --version
0.19.0

`--watch`

Starts the runner in watch mode. Upon changing any currently watched source files (either in your your source-directories or in your tests' source-directories), your tests will get rerun.

elm-test --watch

`--help`

Displays all the available options and commands.

Travis CI

If you want to run your tests on Travis CI, here's a good starter .travis.yml:

sudo: false

language: node_js
node_js: node

cache:
  directories:
    - elm-stuff/build-artifacts
    - elm-stuff/packages
    - sysconfcpus
os:
  - linux

env: ELM_VERSION=0.19.0

before_install:
  - echo -e "Host github.com\n\tStrictHostKeyChecking no\n" >> ~/.ssh/config

install:
  - node --version
  - npm --version
  - npm install -g elm@$ELM_VERSION elm-test
  # Faster compile on Travis.
  - |
    if [ ! -d sysconfcpus/bin ];
    then
      git clone https://github.com/obmarg/libsysconfcpus.git;
      cd libsysconfcpus;
      ./configure --prefix=$TRAVIS_BUILD_DIR/sysconfcpus;
      make && make install;
      cd ..;
    fi

script:
  - $TRAVIS_BUILD_DIR/sysconfcpus/bin/sysconfcpus -n 1 elm-test
