R Documentation

Runs the tests associated with this Shiny app

Description

Sources the .R files in the top-level of ⁠tests/⁠ much like ⁠R CMD check⁠. These files are typically simple runners for tests nested in other directories under ⁠tests/⁠.

Usage

runTests(appDir = ".", filter = NULL, assert = TRUE, envir = globalenv())

Arguments

`appDir`	The base directory for the application.
`filter`	If not `NULL`, only tests with file names matching this regular expression will be executed. Matching is performed on the file name including the extension.
`assert`	Logical value which determines if an error should be thrown if any error is captured.
`envir`	Parent testing environment in which to base the individual testing environments.

Details

Historically, shinytest recommended placing tests at the top-level of the ⁠tests/⁠ directory. This older folder structure is not supported by runTests. Please see shinyAppTemplate() for more details.

Value

A data frame classed with the supplemental class "shiny_runtests". The data frame has the following columns:

Name	Type	Meaning
`file`	`character(1)`	File name of the runner script in `⁠tests/⁠` that was sourced.
`pass`	`logical(1)`	Whether or not the runner script signaled an error when sourced.
`result`	any or `NA`	The return value of the runner
