Testsaz

Testsaz ("تست‌ساز" in Persian) is a fast, minimal test-case generator system for ICPC style and IOI style problems.

It can be helpful when you're preparing some problems for algorithmic contests and Algorithm Design and Data Structures courses.

Usage

Initialization

1. Clone this repository.
2. chmod +x *.sh

Problem preparation

1. Modify these files according to your problem:

   • solution.cpp: the main solution to your problem
   • generator.cpp: input files generator
   • generator_input.txt: line-separated data which is going to be passed to the generator

2. ./input_maker.sh

   Now, there are some input files in the tests directory.

3. ./output_maker.sh

   Now, there are some output files in the tests directory.

Logs

• ./input_maker.sh command prints a report which shows running time and exit code of the generator:

  Generating input files...
  
  start #0
  time: 0:00.00
  exit code: 0
  end #0
  
  start #1
  time: 0:00.00
  exit code: 0
  end #1
  
  start #2
  time: 0:00.00
  exit code: 0
  end #2
  
  ...
  

• ./output_maker.sh command prints a report which shows running time and exit code of the solution:

  Generating output files...
  
  start #0
  time: 0:00.00
  exit code: 0
  end #0
  
  start #1
  time: 0:00.00
  exit code: 0
  end #1
  
  start #2
  time: 0:00.00
  exit code: 0
  end #2
  
  ...
  

Sample

A simple problem with 15 tests is already prepared in this repository.

These files are modified according to the A+B problem:

• solution.cpp: It reads two integers from the input, and it prints their sum.
• generator.cpp: It generates two random integers in a specific range.
• generator_input.txt: It contains the specified ranges for the generator.

Notes

• As it is seen in the sample, a random seed can be passed to the generator.
• The total number of lines in generator_input.txt file matters. It determines the total number of input files.
• The last line of generator_input.txt file should be empty.
