Bundle(s) Runner

This is more of an approach than an actual specifc runner. This approach shows you that you can create a script file in BoxLang (bxs) or in CFML (cfs|cfm) that can in turn execute any test bundle(s) with many many runnable configurations.

BoxLang

The BoxLang language allows you to run your scripts via the CLI or the browser if you have a web server attached to your project.

run.bxs

// Test the BDD Bundle
r = new testbox.system.TestBox( "tests.specs.BDDTest" )
println( r.run() );

// Test the bundle with ONLY the passed specs
r = new testbox.system.TestBox( "tests.specs.BDDTest" )
println( r.run( testSpecs="OnlyThis,AndThis,AndThis" ) )

// Test the bundle with ONLY the passed suites
r = new testbox.system.TestBox( "tests.specs.BDDTest" )
println( r.run( testSuites="Custom Matchers,A Spec" ) )

// Test the passed array of bundles
r = new testbox.system.TestBox( [ "tests.specs.BDDTest", "tests.specs.BDD2Test" ] )
println( r.run() )

// Test with labels and the minimal reporter
r = new testbox.system.TestBox( bundles: "tests.specs.BDDTest", labels="linux" )
println( r.run( reporter: "mintext" ) )

If you want to run it in the CLI, then just use:

boxlang run.bxs

If you want to run it via the web server, place it in your /tests/ folder and run it

http://localhost/tests/run.bxs

CFML

CFML engines only allow you to run tests via the browser. So create your script, place it in your web accessible /tests folder and run it.

run.cfm

<cfscript>
	// Test the BDD Bundle
	r = new testbox.system.TestBox( "tests.specs.BDDTest" )
	writeOutput( r.run() );
	
	// Test the bundle with ONLY the passed specs
	r = new testbox.system.TestBox( "tests.specs.BDDTest" )
	writeOutput( r.run( testSpecs="OnlyThis,AndThis,AndThis" ) )
	
	// Test the bundle with ONLY the passed suites
	r = new testbox.system.TestBox( "tests.specs.BDDTest" )
	writeOutput( r.run( testSuites="Custom Matchers,A Spec" ) )
	
	// Test the passed array of bundles
	r = new testbox.system.TestBox( [ "tests.specs.BDDTest", "tests.specs.BDD2Test" ] )
	writeOutput( r.run() )
	
	// Test with labels and the minimal reporter
	r = new testbox.system.TestBox( bundles: "tests.specs.BDDTest", labels="linux" )
	writeOutput( r.run( reporter: "mintext" ) )
</cfscript>
