# Vimwiki Tests
This directory contains a test framework used to automatically test/verify
Vimwiki functionality. It is based on the following tools:
- [vim-testbed GitHub](https://github.com/tweekmonster/vim-testbed) or on [testbed/vim dockerhub](https://hub.docker.com/r/testbed/vim)
2019-07-14 15:32:38 +02:00
- [Vader](https://github.com/junegunn/vader.vim)
2019-07-25 05:57:01 +02:00
- [Vint](https://github.com/Kuniwak/vint)

## Building Docker Image
2019-07-14 15:32:38 +02:00
To build the Docker image run `docker build -t vimwiki .` from the Vimwiki
2019-07-14 15:32:38 +02:00
repository root (same location as the Dockerfile).

## Running Tests

### Manual Steps
Starting in the test directory run this command:
```sh
docker run -it --rm -v $PWD/../:/testplugin -v $PWD/../test:/home vimwiki vim_7.4.1099 -u test/vimrc -i NONE
```
This will open a vim instance in the docker container and then all tests
can be run with `:Vader test/*` or individual tests can be run.
**Note:** Substitute `vim_7.4.1099` for any of the vim versions in the Dockerfile.
### Automated Tests
The script in the `test/` directory named `run_test.sh` can be used to
automatically run all tests for all installed vim versions. The vim/nvim
versions are parsed from the Dockerfile. This script will also run `Vint` for all
plugin source files. For more information run `./run_tests.sh -h`.
## Writing Tests
You are advice to write tests at the top of the file where you want to include it because some `Execute` can have some side effect making it hard to debug
### Inside the container
- `$USER` -> `vimtest` : unprivileged => very hard to mess up things
- `$HOME` -> `/home/vimtest` : but it is readonly !
- `$PWD` -> `/testplugin` : mapped to vimwiki plugin root directory
For more information, read the [base docker image](https://github.com/tweekmonster/vim-testbed)

## Known Issues
1. neovim v0.2.x does not work correctly with Vader output from the docker
container. No test results are printed and an error message saying
`Vim: Error reading input, exiting...`
- Probably need to look into this more and determine if the issue is Vader,
Neovim, or Docker.
2. Vader does not play nice with the location list. Tests that use the location
list should be placed in `independent_runs/`.
