I want to call an exe file in my fitnesse test case.
Help me in calling an exe file in my test cases
With fitnesse, you'll need to write a fixture to run the EXE (and/or find a fitnesse plugin to do it for you). The easiest way is to write a simple fixture and just run
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(<cmd>);
While #Steven Mastandrea's answer is right but it does require you to write you a Java class extending one of the provided fixture's from Fitnesse and compile and put the class files in Fitnesse classpath and then use it.
There is a much simpler way of doing it if you use Generic Fixture like this:
!| Generic Fixture |
| exec | mycommand.exe | | expected outpout |
Disclaimer: Generic Fixture was written and distributed by me as open source 2 years ago on sourceforge.
With fitSharp on Windows, you can write this:
|with|type|System.Diagnostics.Process|
|with|start|C:\dev\myFileImporter.exe||-f c:\dev\data\file.txt|
|wait for exit|
I would suggest taking the CommandLineFixture as a baseline, and expand it from there. The CommandLineFixture has a lot of functionality and is well commented and easily extended should you wish to do so.
This fixture incorporates Steven's code, but has a lot more functionality than simply exec, including being able to asynchronously spawn processes, search output for expected results, etc.
Post a command if you feel some examples of how to use it would be helpful!

My main goal is to either make my lua file into executable or make it into a bite code.
preferably both of them.
I am trying srlua,but in readme file it tells me to do:
"For Windows, you need to create srlua.exe and glue.exe first. Then for each
Lua program that you want to turn into a stand-alone program, do
glue srlua.exe prog.lua prog.exe
Of course, you can use any name instead of prog.exe."
and when I am trying to compile it using codebluck to get(srlua.exe),I get this :
and what dose it mean by this?
glue srlua.exe prog.lua prog.exe
where should I type that it.
Thanks in advance.
Type it into your shell. Once you have the binary of srlua, that takes "prog.lua" and glues it to "srlua.exe" making "prog.exe". Of course, you need glue as well. You can get an srlua binary and a glue binary for Lua 5.1 here. http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/#srlua
I am working with Erlang and EUnit to do unit tests, and I would like to write a test runner to automate the running of my unit tests. The problem is that eunit:test/1 seems to only return "error" or "ok" and not a list of tests and what they returned in terms of what passed or failed.
So is there a way to run tests and get back some form of a data structure of what tests ran and their pass/fail state?
If you are using rebar you don't have to implement your own runner. You can simply run:
rebar eunit
Rebar will compile and run all tests in the test directory (as well as eunit tests inside your modules). Furthermore, rebar allows you set the same options in the rebar.config as in the shell:
{eunit_opts, [verbose, {report,{eunit_surefire,[{dir,"."}]}}]}.
You can use these options also in the shell:
> eunit:test([foo], [verbose, {report,{eunit_surefire,[{dir,"."}]}}]).
See also documentation for verbose option and structured report.
An alternative option would be to use Common Test instead of Eunit. Common Test comes with a runner (ct_run command) and gives you more flexibility in your test setup but is also a little more complex to use. Common Test lacks on the available macros but produces very comprehensible html reports.
No easy or documented way, but there are currently two ways you can do this. One is to give the option 'event_log' when you run the tests:
eunit:test(my_module, [event_log])
(this is undocumented and was really only meant for debugging). The resulting file "eunit-events.log" is a text file that can be read by Erlang using file:consult(Filename).
The more powerful way (and not really all that difficult) is to implement a custom event listener and give it as an option to eunit:
eunit:test(my_module, [{report, my_listener_module}])
This isn't documented yet, but it ought to be. A listener module implements the eunit_listener behaviour (see src/eunit_listener.erl). There are only five callback functions to implement. Look at src/eunit_tty.erl and src/eunit_surefire.erl for examples.
I've just pushed to GitHub a very trivial listener, which stores the EUnit results in a DETS table. This can be useful, if you need to further process those data, since they're stored as Erlang terms in the DETS table.
https://github.com/prof3ta/eunit_terms
Example of usage:
> eunit:test([fact_test], [{report,{eunit_terms,[]}}]).
All 3 tests passed.
ok
> {ok, Ref} = dets:open_file(results).
{ok,#Ref<0.0.0.114>}
> dets:lookup(Ref, testsuite).
[{testsuite,<<"module 'fact_test'">>,8,<<>>,3,0,0,0,
[{testcase,{fact_test,fact_zero_test,0,0},[],ok,0,<<>>},
{testcase,{fact_test,fact_neg_test,0,0},[],ok,0,<<>>},
{testcase,{fact_test,fact_pos_test,0,0},[],ok,0,<<>>}]}]
Hope this helps.
I've been learning Ruby/Rails with vim. Tim Pope's rails.vim seems like a really good tool to traverse files with, but I keep getting these pesky "E345 can't find file in path" errors. I'm not vim expert yet, so the solution isn't obvious. Additionally, I've tried this and it doesn't apply to my problem.
As an example of the problem. I have a method format_name defined in app/helpers/application_helper.rb and it is used in app/helpers/messages_helper.rb. Within the latter file I put my cursor over the usage of format_name and then hit gf and I get that error. Similar disfunction with commands like ]f and [f
However, it works sometimes. I was able to gf from user to the app/models/user.rb
Ideas?
I think that is a limitation of rails.vim. It does not support “finding” bare methods. Supporting something like that would require one of the following:
an exhaustive search of all the source files for each “find” request
(which could be expensive with large projects),
“dumb” indexing of method names
(e.g. Exuberant Ctags and gControl-]; see :help g_CTRL-]), or
smart enough parsing of the code to make a good guess where the method might be defined
(which is hard to do properly).
If you know where the method is, you can extend many of the navigation commands with a method name:
:Rhelper application#format_name
But, you do not have to type all of that in. Assuming the cursor is on format_name you can probably just type:RhTabspaceappTab#Control-R Control-W (see :help c_CTRL-R_CTRL-W).
The include directive is usually used for a .hrl file at the top of an .erl file.
But, I would like to use include from the Erlang console directly.
I am trying to use some functions in a module. I have compiled the erl file from the console. But, the functions I want to use do not work without access to the hrl file.
Any suggestions?
"But, the functions I want to use do not work without access to the hrl file."
This can't be true, but from this I'll take a shot at guessing that you want access to records in the hrl file that you don't (normally) have in the shell.
If you do rr(MODULE) you will load all records defined in MODULE(including those defined in an include file included by MODULE).
Then you can do everything you need to from the shell.
(Another thing you may possibly want for testing is to add the line -compile(export_all) to your erl file. Ugly, but good sometimes for testing.)
Have you tried the compile:file option? You can pass a list of modules to be included thus:
compile:file("myfile.erl", [{i, "/path/1/"}, {i, "/path/2/"}])
It's worth nothing that jsonerl.hrl doesn't contain any functions. It contains macros. As far as I know, macros are a compile-time-only construct in Erlang.
The easiest way to make them available would be to create a .erl file yourself that actually declares functions that are implemented in terms of the macro. Maybe something like this:
-module(jsonerl_helpers).
-include("jsonerl.hrl").
record_to_struct_f(RecordName, Record) ->
?record_to_struct(RecordName, Record).
... which, after you compile, you could call as:
jsonerl_helpers:record_to_struct_f(RecordName, Record)
I don't know why the author chose to implement those as macros; it seems odd, but I'm sure he had his reasons.
I'm using a closed-source application that loads Lua scripts and allows some customization through modifying these scripts. Unfortunately that application is not very good at generating useful log output (all I get is 'script failed') if something goes wrong in one of the Lua scripts.
I realize that dynamic languages are pretty much resistant to static code analysis in the way C++ code can be analyzed for example.
I was hoping though, there would be a tool that runs through a Lua script and e.g. warns about variables that have not been defined in the context of a particular script.
Essentially what I'm looking for is a tool that for a script:
local a
print b
would output:
warning: script.lua(1): local 'a' is not used'
warning: script.lua(2): 'b' may not be defined'
It can only really be warnings for most things but that would still be useful! Does such a tool exist? Or maybe a Lua IDE with a feature like that build in?
Thanks, Chris
Automated static code analysis for Lua is not an easy task in general. However, for a limited set of practical problems it is quite doable.
Quick googling for "lua lint" yields these two tools: lua-checker and Lua lint.
You may want to roll your own tool for your specific needs however.
Metalua is one of the most powerful tools for static Lua code analysis. For example, please see metalint, the tool for global variable usage analysis.
Please do not hesitate to post your question on Metalua mailing list. People there are usually very helpful.
There is also lua-inspect, which is based on metalua that was already mentioned. I've integrated it into ZeroBrane Studio IDE, which generates an output very similar to what you'd expect. See this SO answer for details: https://stackoverflow.com/a/11789348/1442917.
For checking globals, see this lua-l posting. Checking locals is harder.
You need to find a parser for lua (should be available as open source) and use it to parse the script into a proper AST tree. Use that tree and a simple variable visibility tracker to find out when a variable is or isn't defined.
Usually the scoping rules are simple:
start with the top AST node and an empty scope
item look at the child statements for that node. Every variable declaration should be added in the current scope.
if a new scope is starting (for example via a { operator) create a new variable scope inheriting the variables in the current scope).
when a scope is ending (for example via } ) remove the current child variable scope and return to the parent.
Iterate carefully.
This will provide you with what variables are visible where inside the AST. You can use this information and if you also inspect the expressions AST nodes (read/write of variables) you can find out your information.
I just started using luacheck and it is excellent!
The first release was from 2015.
