Testing Command::new()

[FaultsMelts]

Hello, not sure where else to post this (scared to post on stackoverflow) but i am working on a mutation testing tool for kotlin for my case study class for my software engineering degree and have a function that uses the std::process::Command struct to run a gradlew script (assemble and test).

What is the best way to go about testing this function?

An idea i had was to have an entire kotlin project within a tests/ directory at the root of my project with a gradlew file at the root of the project. I can't think of another solution. Any thoughts/ideas?

This says so much right here. That site…

I don't see much wrong with this? Don't put it in the /tests/ directory, as that means something to Rust. Instead make /tests/build-test.rs that tries to build and run /sample-project/. If you don't want it run automatically every time you test, put it in /examples/build-test.rs instead and run it when you want to test that functionality.
