runScripTests: Run the tests in the tests directory of a package
In scriptests: Transcript-Based Unit Tests that are Easy to Create and Maintain

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s)

This function is not intended for interactive use, see runtests() for that. This function is intended to be called from the file runtests.R in the tests subdirectory of a package. The runtests.R file should contain these two lines:

1
2
3

    library(scriptests)
    runScripTests()

runScripTests(..., initializeFun = Quote(initializeTests()),
              finalizeFun = Quote(summarizeTests()),
              diffFun = Quote(ScripDiff()),
              subst = NULL, pattern = NULL, quit = TRUE)

`...`
`initializeFun`	Function for initializing tests.
`finalizeFun`	Function for finalizing tests – should compute a summary of test results.
`diffFun`	Function for checking differences between target output and actual test output.
`subst`
`pattern`	Only run tests whose filename matches this regular expression pattern.
`quit`	Call `q("no")` at the end? Ignored in interactive sessions.

When runScripTests() runs, it will create a .R file with the commands extracted from each .Rt file. It will then run each .R file in a separate R session, save the output in a .Rout file, and compare the output with the .Rt file. runScripTests will leave a summary in the file test-summary.txt. If there are errors, the summary will be duplicated in the file test-summary.fail (the presence of a file ending in .fail signals an error to "R CMD check".)
