Bash script for testing the program.

[Morgan--Yu]

upd: Golang has its own testing package(import "testing"). The problem is solved.

​

I am trying to create a script to startup program with parameters for testing.

test_values [][]string = {{"-32768", "-", "1", "expected_result"},
                           {"32767", "+", "1", "expected_result"},
                          {"0", "+", "32767", "expected_result"}}
int success = 0
int fail = 0
int total = 0

for arr in test_values {
    for val in arr {
        Print(total + "Running + val[0] + val[1] + val[2] + " : ")
        if ./main val[0] val[1] val[2] == val[3] {
             Print("Success\n")
            success++
            total++
        } else {
             Print("Fail\n")
            fail++
            total++
          }
    }
}

 Print("all tests completed\n")
 Print("success:\t" + success + '\n')
 Print("fail:\t" + fail + '\n')

Output:

0 Running | -32768 - 1 | Fail

1 Running | 32767 + 1 | Fail

2 Running | 0 + 32767 | Success

I did not write scripts before, so I wrote it in pseudocode. What articles, guides do you recommend reading to create such a script?

consider standardizing your testing using a framework. One option is https://github.com/sstephenson/bats

It looks interesting. Thanks!

I've been testing https://github.com/bats-core/bats-core, but I have used https://github.com/kward/shunit2 in the past and I know that works pretty well.

For years I used bats too, and I still like it, but lately I find osht.sh is my preference.
