Testa

Testa is the best, simple Test tool "CrossPlatform" and "CrossLanguages" (Only Script languages supported for now), develop by developpers for developpers based on comments in your code. The power in this tool is that the grammar is the same for all your implementation languages.

Note: This project is completly experimental, am still working on it, not sure where am going with it lol.

Features

• Testa can do any Unittest you want from an assertion.
• Testa Can Save Your Tests reports so that you can check it later in a persistant file.
• Testa is light and simple because it is based on comments in your code.
• Testa have a specific and very simple grammar for testing "all methods" presents in a file in one time and generate reports.
• Testa is build from scratch so it doesn't have any dependency or any kind of troubleshooting with potentials externals libs.
• Testa can generate for you a small and readable documentation whatever the language you're using

Testa can test all theese programming languages

List of languages, where you can perform testa test:

• [Done] Python
• [Done] Javascript
• [Done] PHP
• [Done] Ruby

Some few things to know before using testa.

How to config it

Config files

You need to config a testa.json.

• An example of testa config file for Javascript:

{
    "module": "ta-js",
    "path": ["./square.js", "./my_javascript_app/"],
    "extensions": [".js"],
    "launcher": "node"
}

ps : in path parameter, you can define either a file or a directory

• An example of testa config file for PHP:

{
    "module": "ta-php",
    "path": ["./square.php"],
    "extensions": [".php"],
    "launcher": "php"
}

• An example of testa config file for python:

{
    "module": "ta-py",
    "path": ["./sha256.py", "./square.py"],
    "extensions": [".py"],
    "launcher": "python"
}

• An example of testa config file for Ruby:

{
    "module": "ta-rb",
    "path": ["./my_ruby_app/", "./square.rb"],
    "extensions": [".rb"],
    "launcher": "ruby"
}

How to install it

To install testa, it's really simple, you just have to run:

pip install tsta

# Then cd to the directory tha tcontain your testa.json file 
# and run :
tsta
# That's all, a report will be generated

How to use it

In your code, make sure to enclose the instructions you want to test with the testa grammar, for example:

• In Python:

# For a Simple assertion:

# ::import_start::
# --- Your imports here, if your methods need them ---
# ::import_end::

# ::testa_start::
# ::case_start::
# >> testa.isEqual(2, 2)
# << true
# ::case_end::
# ::testa_end::

#
# ::doc_start::
#  .
#  Here a small description of the function  that will be generate on the documentation
#  .
# ::doc_end::
#

# With methods :

# ::testa_start::
# ::case_start::
# >> addition(2, 2)
# << 4
# ::case_end::
# ::code_start::
def addition(a, b):
    return a+b
# ::code_end::
# ::testa_end::

• In Javascript:

// ::import_start::
// --- Your imports here ---
// ::import_end::

// For a Simple assertion:

// ::testa_start::
// ::case_start::
// >> testa.isEqual(2, 2)
// << true
// ::case_end::
// ::testa_end::


// For more instructions:

// ::testa_start::
// ::case_start::
// >> addition(2, 2)
// << 4
// ::case_end::

//
// ::doc_start::
//  .
//  Here a small description of the function  that will be generate on the documentation
//  .
// ::doc_end::
//

// ::code_start::
// --- Your specific list of instruction / functions source code here!
function addition(a, b){
    return a+b
}
// ::code_end::
// ::testa_end::

• In php :

// ::testa_start::
// ::case_start::
// >> square(9)
// << 3
// ::case_end::
// ::code_start::
function square($a){
    return sqrt($a);
}
// ::code_end::
// ::testa_end::

• In Ruby :

# ::testa_start::
# ::case_start::
# >> square(9)
# << 3.0
# ::case_end::
# ::code_start::
def square(a)
    return a/2
# ::code_end::
# ::testa_end::

And that's where the magic of Testa is, for any language, you have only to write a simple JSON file and specify paths where you will do tests.
