shellio

shell test tools for cli apps

overview

shellio allows you to test cli tools with snapshot.

Only you have to do is write spec file shellio.spec.json and run command shellio, then snapshot of standard io is saved in .spec dir.

about shellio.spec.json

You can write test case in shellio.spec.json.

{
  "name": "sample", // the name of whole tests.
  "specs": [ // you can write test cases here
    {
      "describe": "sample1", // test case description
      "command": "ls", // command to exec for test
      "results": ".spec/sample1_ls.snapshot" // path for snapshot
    }
  ]
}

At first, you should make results blank. (shellio will fill in results later)
