"testthat:::all_passed" method returns TRUE even when some tests fail

[anirudhacharya]

While writing a test if I made a typo and used testthat instead of test_that( doc) it will fail the test, but calling all_passed on the test result will return TRUE.

For example if I write the test as follows -

testthat("sample", {
       expect_equal(1, 1)
   })

and run the test with res<-test_dir("R-package/tests/testthat") then it will fail with syntax errors, as expected, but calling testthat:::all_passed(res) will return TRUE.

I don't see the problem:

library(testthat)
testthat("sample", {
  expect_equal(1, 1)
})
#> Error in testthat("sample", {: could not find function "testthat"

I suspect there is something else going on in your environment.
