go-testrunner - Test harness for script driven tests

What is it?

A library to simplify writing golang tests that act on files and directories. This library was written to help simplify testing for go-fio's cmp module. Many of the commands are specifically for the go-fio module.

How do I use it?

This library implements common script commands:

mkfile: Make a file or dir in the test dir; usage:

mkfile [options] name [name...]

The optional arguments are:

-m X | --min-file-size X Make files at least as big X -M Y | --max-file-size Y Make files no bigger than Y -d | --dir Make directories instead of files -t WhERE | --target WhERE Make dirs in 'lhs', 'rhs' or 'both
touch: Sync the timestamps of all dirs and files to be the same. The time of start of test is used as the singular reference timestamp.
mutate: modify one or more files

mutate name [name ...]
symlink: make one or more symlinks in lhs or rhs or both

symlink lhs="newname@oldname new2@old2" rhs="newname@oldname"

Where lhs= and rhs= denote the target where this is made

How can I extend it?

Take a look at go-fio/cmp; this module extends the commands by adding the expect command:

Implements the testrunnner.Cmd interface
Register the command with testrunner by calling testrunner.RegisterCommand() from a init() function.
