Lexer tests
The tests in this directory feed a known input testdata/<name>.actual
into the parser for <name>
and check
that its output matches <name>.exported
.
Running the tests
Run the tests as normal:
go test ./lexers
Update existing tests
When you add a new test data file (*.actual
), you need to regenerate all tests. That's how Chroma creates the *.expected
test file based on the corresponding lexer.
To regenerate all tests, type in your terminal:
RECORD=true go test ./lexers
This first sets the RECORD
environment variable to true
. Then it runs go test
on the ./lexers
directory of the Chroma project.
(That environment variable tells Chroma it needs to output test data. After running go test ./lexers
you can remove or reset that variable.)
Windows users
Windows users will find that the RECORD=true go test ./lexers
command fails in both the standard command prompt terminal and in PowerShell.
Instead we have to perform both steps separately:
- Set the
RECORD
environment variable totrue
.- In the regular command prompt window, the
set
command sets an environment variable for the current session:set RECORD=true
. See this page for more. - In PowerShell, you can use the
$env:RECORD = 'true'
command for that. See this article for more. - You can also make a persistent environment variable by hand in the Windows computer settings. See this article for how.
- In the regular command prompt window, the
- When the environment variable is set, run
go tests ./lexers
.
Chroma will now regenerate the test files and print its results to the console window.
