Automatically find and run tests in emacs
Use M-x blip-mode to enable blip-mode, which runs tests whenever
you save the buffer.
Tests are deduced using the rules in the variable
blip-find-test-file-rules
The function to perform the testing is deduced using the variable
blip-run-functions. Currently only emacs24's own ert-based tests
are supported through blip--run-ert-tests, which is bundled.
Both blip-find-test-file-rules and blip-run-functions are intended
to be customized by the user, see their doc.
blip.el does more or less the same as
unit-test.el but
- NIH
- I didn't know of
unit-test.elwhen I started - I think
blip.eldoes a bit more and takes greater advantage of lexical binding in emacs 24 - NIH
- more self tests
- more functions to run tests in other languages/frameworks
- fix bugs and cleanup
