Tests
72 test programs in tests/programs/, plus 4 classic interactive programs in
tests/classic/ (Hamurabi, Lunar Lander, Gunner, Diamond from David Ahl's
BASIC Computer Games).
Run the full automated suite:
bash tests/run_tests.sh
Each test has a 5-second timeout. 67 tests have .expected golden files
for output regression detection. Tests without golden comparison: datetime,
on_timer, timer_stop (timing-dependent), color_test (visual), play_music
(audio duration).
Compatibility Testing
Compare output against real GWBASIC.EXE running under DOSBox-X:
# Generate .expected files from GWBASIC.EXE (requires DOSBox-X Flatpak)
bash tests/run_compat.sh --generate
# Compare gwbasic output against .expected
bash tests/run_compat.sh
CI
GitHub Actions runs on every push to main and on pull requests. The workflow
builds the project with PulseAudio support and runs all 66 test programs.
