OLX Test Runner

Generate command

Overview

Generate command creates optimized test group based on the test files. It will create new dart file which later can be used with flutter test command.

Command reference

The command can be executed with the following syntax:

dart pub global run olx_test_runner generate <options>

Available Options

  • --shard-index (Optional): Specifies the index of the shard to generate test groups for. This is especially useful in scenarios like distributed test execution or CI pipelines.
  • --shard-count (Optional): Indicates the total number of shards, enabling a test distribution strategy that ensures all tests are executed across multiple runners efficiently.
  • --seed (Optional): A numeric value used to randomize the test groups. By providing a seed, you can ensure reproducibility of the grouping process for consistent test execution.
  • --test-path (Required): The path pointing to the location of your test files. This option ensures that OLX Test Runner knows where to find and process your test suite.

Example:

Terminal window
dart pub global run olx_test_runner generate --shard-index 1 --shard-count 1 --seed 12345 --test-path test_files/olx_test_runner
// Test Runner generated file
// TEST GROUP 1/1
import 'first_test.dart' as first_test_6b37a5f5;
import 'second_test.dart' as second_test_043b5507;
import 'third_test.dart' as third_test_3ac19fec;


void main() {
  first_test_6b37a5f5.main();
  second_test_043b5507.main();
  third_test_3ac19fec.main();
}
