In yihui/testit: A Simple Package for Testing R Packages

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.14

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.13

• The global option options(testit.cleanup = TRUE) (TRUE is the default) can be used to clean up additional files or directories generated in the tests/ directory during the test process.

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.12

• test_pkg() installs the package before running tests when it is called from a non-interactive R session that is not launched by R CMD check, e.g., when you run tests in RStudio via Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + T, so you will not have to install the package manually (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + B) before running tests.

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.11

• The package license was changed from GPL to GPL-3 (@jayvdb #8).

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.10

• test_pkg() also looks for tests under the tests/testit/ directory. This makes it easier for you to run test_pkg() under the root directory of the package, and you don't need to change the working directory to tests/.

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.9

• Added a new argument silent to has_error() (thanks, @StevenMMortimer, #6).

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.8

• When %==% is used inside assert(), a message will be printed if the value is not TRUE, to show the values of the LHS and RHS, respectively.

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.7

• provided an alternative way to write assertions of the form assert('fact', {(condition_2); (condition_2)}); see ?testit::assert for more information

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.6

• test_pkg() runs package tests with top-level environment being set to the namespace of the tested package (thanks, @kalibera, #3)

• all test scripts (test-*.R) are assumed to be encoded in UTF-8 if they contain multibyte characters

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.5

• added an infix operator %==% as an alias of identical() (in RStudio, you can use an add-in to insert the text %==%)

• test_pkg() will print out the filename of the R script that errored

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.4

• the fact argument of assert() is optional now: all arguments of assert() can be test conditions

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.3

• the test files have to be named of the form test-.R (or test-.r), i.e. they have to use the prefix test-

• the test environment is always cleaned (all objects removed) before the next test is run

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.2.1

• fixed a test that failed under R 2.15.x because the argument keep.source did not exist in parse()

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.2

• assert() does not use base::stopifnot() any more; a tailored version of stopifnot() is used now; see ?assert for the differences between this version and base::stopifnot(); in particular, assert(fact, logical(0)) will fail but stopifnot(logical(0)) will not

CHANGES IN testit VERSION 0.1

• this is the first version of testit; the source code is hosted on Github: https://github.com/yihui/testit

• added functions assert(), test_pkg(), has_error() and has_warning()
