rgt - Red Green Test

Auto test runner that monitor files and run tests whenever they are changed

Motivation

I am just lazy and like to start tests asap whenever I change code to verify instantaneously if what I am doing makes sense.

Future

Support for more types of files and test runners so that if I change python a python test runner starts etc.

Current limitations

• very basic and not optimized
• only GO, Python supported at the moment
• watches all the files - even .git file changes

Usage

Run rgt in your main folder to watch all the files in sub folders

rgt

Commands

rgt start
      --test-runner string   Specifies which go test runner to use. (default "go", supports gotestsum)
      --sub-folder-only         If set true will run only tests from the folder the file that is changed in.
      --type string             Specifiec which type of test to start : [golang, python]

Installation
