APS Test Cases and Test Runner
Test Cases for Algorithmic Problem Solving. Also included are some starter files that come with optimizations for I/O and are gradescope compatible.
Using the Test Runner
Use the command ./run_tests <source_file> <test_path> to run the test runner, and get more help by using ./run_tests --help.
The test runner compiles your code and runs it; before compiling, it first copies your code into a file called .build/Main.ext where ext is the extension of your program, and the .build folder is located in the same directory as the test runner. Because of this, you can name your file whatever you want; if you're using Java, you can name your file Polish.java and have a main class called Main in that file, and it'll work both with the runner and with Gradescope.
When creating test cases, you can optionally add description metadata to your answer file so you can see what exactly your test case is targeting so you can better debug your code.
Examples
Standard Input
If your source file is at /home/esilverm/aps/hw1/CarValue.java, this repository is at /home/esilverm/aps/aps-test-cases, and the current directory is /home/esilverm/aps:
./run_tests hw1/CarValue.java
will compile the program and run it using standard input. You'll have the option to save your run as a test case. If you say yes, you'll get this prompt:
Where should this test case be stored?
You can use tab completion here (not on Windows); one tab completes, two tabs will suggest possible values.
Folder of Test Cases
You can compile and run the program using a folder of test cases by running
./run_tests hw1/CarValue.java aps-test-cases/hw1/car_value
This will run all test cases in the folder car_value and check them against the given answers in the folder.
Single test case
You can compile and run the program on a test case by using:
./run_tests hw1/CarValue.java aps-test-cases/hw1/car_value/example-1
This will run the test case example-1 and check it against the contents of the file example-1-ans in the same directory.
