This is a developer helper mod. It allows to run any lua code for testing reason. The mod can list and run lua-scripts placed in checks subfolder. Some check scripts are provided with the mod.
The second part allows to display global lua-tables variables tree for debugging.
- redirection of print() output to minetest chat
- redirection of print() output to a log file in the world directory. The output is sorted so that it can be compared to find regressions
- robust call of the scripts trough "pcall" does not crash the game in case of syntax- or runtime errors
- all functionality available through chat commands and the QA-Block node
- refresh and list the checks script list at runtime
- edit the code before calling them
- type code and run it
- explore global variables/lua tables

add the mod to the game you like to test
- /qa help - print available chat commands
- /qa ls - list all available check modules
- /qa set checkname - set default check
- /qa ui - display and run check using the selection dialog. Browse trough globals (smartfs only)
- /qa checkname - run check
- /qa - run default check
- get the QA-Block from creative inventory
- place the block somewhere 3a - without smartfs - wait till the default check is finished and the block disappears 3b - with smartfs - start the check using selection dialog
In all cases - check the debug.txt for test results
