Bash-TAP
========

Bash-TAP allows you to perform TAP-compliant tests within bash
using a similar test syntax to Perl's Test::More and Test::Builder,
suitable to run with `prove` or any other TAP-consuming test harness.

For more information about TAP (the Test Anything Protocol) visit:
http://testanything.org/

Installation and Usage
----------------------

1. Install the bash-tap files somewhere convenient for you.
   The default location of `../../bash-tap` relative to your
   test files is the easiest zero-conf way, but you can set
   the `$BASH_TAP_ROOT` environment variable if you want to
   install elsewhere.
2. If you're writing tests then copy `bash-tap-bootstrap`
   into your tests dir and source it inside your tests with:

```bash
. $(dirname $0)/bash-tap-bootstrap
```

3. Run your tests with `prove my_test_dir` or your favourite
   TAP-consuming test harness, or run them manually as a
   script if you just want to see the raw TAP output.

Example test file
-----------------

Here's example test file `01_read_rows_from_key_value_lines.t` from
https://github.com/illusori/bash-snippets

```bash
#!/bin/bash

. $(dirname $0)/bash-tap-bootstrap
. $(dirname $0)/../read_rows_from_key_value_lines

columns_per_row=6
max_rows_per_rowset=3
total_rowsets=2

plan tests $(((columns_per_row * max_rows_per_rowset * total_rowsets) + total_rowsets))

#  Test data, resultset 1

#  Since $() runs in a subshell, we need to run it "for real" now
_read_rows_from_key_value_lines "track" "$results1" &>/dev/null

```

Running this gives output:

```
$ prove ~/projects/bash-snippets/t
/Users/illusori/projects/bash-snippets/t/01_read_rows_from_key_value_lines.t .. ok
All tests successful.

```

Or the verbose output:

Mocking with bash-tap-mock
--------------------------

Also included in `bash-tap` is a simple function mocking framework
`bash-tap-mock`, it lets you mock commands and functions with
`mock_command` and `restore_mocked_command`.

If you particularly care to only mock functions rather than commands
(a good safeguard against typos), use `mock_function` and
`restore_mocked_function`, which have some extended error checking
ensuring the function you're mocking exists in the first place.

An example from https://github.com/illusori/bash-itunes is clearer:

```bash
#!/bin/bash

. $(dirname $0)/bash-tap-bootstrap
. "$BASH_TAP_ROOT/bash-tap-mock"
. $(dirname $0)/../itunes

plan tests 4

sent_command=''
function mock_osascript() {
    sent_command="$*"
    restore_mocked_function "_osascript"
}
mock_function "_osascript" "mock_osascript"

start_output_capture
_dispatch "stop"
finish_output_capture stdout stderr

like "$sent_command" 'stop' "sent command should contain 'stop'"
like "$sent_command" 'tell application "iTunes"' "sent command should contain 'tell application \"iTunes\"'"

is "$stdout" "Stopping iTunes." "stdout should tell user what happened"
is "$stderr" "" "stderr should be empty"
```
