Documentation on the different testing options available in spartan.
You can run ctest in the build directory to run tests. Additionally, the
environment file adds some commands to run tests for sub-projects
run_tests_drake
run_tests_director
The above commands move into the build directory of the sub-project and run its tests. You can pass additional arguments to the test driver (ctest). For example, to print a list of available tests
run_tests_director -N
To run tests in verbose mode
run_tests_director -V
To run a specific test matching a name or regex
run_tests_director -R testPyDrakeIk
To run tests in parallel
run_tests_drake -j12
The following tests launch the whole simulation stack. The tests involve moving the arm to different positions using the various ROS services that are available. To run the tests
pyunit --forked modules/spartan/test/
Note the --forked keyword is critical to make sure that procman doesn't leave around any hanging processes.
