minishell_unit_test

Unit test for the mandatory part of minishell (42cursus project)


Prerequisites

Your executable must support the -c option, which allows you to pass commands as a string (man bash)

Installation

  • Clone this repository at the root of your minishell project

Usage

./unit_test.sh inside this repository

  • Options

    --no-error or -n Does not test the stderr output, which is tested by default


    You can run tests of a given section by doing:

    --<test_section_name> e.g. --builtins Only errors in these tests will be written in the log file. Note that you can combine them

    ./unit_test.sh --n --builtins --quotes

    will only run the builtins and quotes tests and won't test the stderr output


    --help or -h Shows the script usage, mainly the names of each test section and its abreviation

Behaviour

  • For each test, stdout and stderr of your minishell and real bash will be compared, along with their return codes. For a test to be passed, you need to have the same return code of bash, as well as the same output in the stdout.

  • If the stderr differs, you will see [FAIL] on the stderr column, but that won't affect the previous result of the test. If the stderr is empty or if it doesn't differs, stderr column will be empty.
