test-runner

A helper crate for running automated Rust tests on a 3DS. Since the builtin Rust test framework expects a more traditional OS with subprocesses etc., it’s necessary to use custom_test_frameworks when running tests on 3DS hardware or in an emulator to get a similar experience as a usual cargo test.

Usage

First the test runner to your crate:

cargo add --dev test-runner --git https://github.com/rust3ds/ctru-rs

In lib.rs and any integration test files:

#![feature(custom_test_frameworks)]
#![test_runner(test_runner::run_gdb)]

Caveats

• GDB doesn’t seem to support separate output streams for stdout and stderr, so all test output to stderr will end up combined with stdout and both will be printed to the runner’s stdout. If you know a workaround for this that doesn’t require patching + building GDB itself please open an issue about it!

• Doctests require a bit of extra setup to work with the runner, since they don’t use the crate’s #![test_runner]. To write doctests, add the following to the beginning of the doctest (or fn main() if the test defines it):

  let _runner = test_runner::GdbRunner::default();
  

  The runner must remain in scope for the duration of the test in order for the test output to be printed.
