Test Runner Syntax Options

At the prompt, enter:

test-runner [options] [test-suite] 

where:

test-runner

The name of the executable that will run the test suite, and then produce the test results:

• cobmfurun32[_t]
• cobmfurun64[_t]

The optional _t runs the test suite in the multi-threaded run-time system.

options

The options that apply to the test run. These are optional, and you can apply one or more of the following:

-testcase:testcase-name

Only run the specified test case from the test suite; all other test cases are skipped. Not set by default.

-ignore-return-code:{true|false}

When set to true, the return-code indicating a test pass or fail is ignored, and the test continues running. The default is false.

-verbose:{true|false}

Displays verbose output to the screen. The default is true.

-process:{single|separate}

Use a single process for the entire test run, or multiple separate processes (one for the test runner and one for each test case within the run). If you are using separate processes, the parent test runner process can log errors and continue with the test run in the event of a test case failure. The default is separate.

-isolate:{true|false}

Isolates each test case, so that any resources shared between test cases start from their correct initial state for each test case. The default is true.

-report{printfile|noprintfile|junit|nojunit|}...

Outputs the test results to a .txt file (printfile option) or .xml file (junit option). The default is to produce a .txt file.

-reportfile:filename

Changes the name of the .txt report file. It defaults to <test suite-name>-report.txt.

-junit-packname:package-name

Packages the JUnit formatted .xml files under package-name. Not set by default.

-outdir:directory

Specifies a directory for the reports. If not specified, the reports are created in the directory in which the tests were run.

-jenkins-ci

Enables support for producing test results that will be used on a Jenkins CI server.

-jenkins-ci:junit-attachments

Enables support for producing test results that will be used on a Jenkins CI server, and also enables the Jenkins plugin for JUnit formatted results.

-jit:{core|debug}

Produces a core dump file or invokes just-in-time debugging when a test case errors.

Note: This option has no effect when asserting a test failure.

-generate-mfu filename

Produces a skeleton test fixture file (.mfu file) from the test cases within filename (a .dll file or .so file).

Note: An .mfu file of the same name must not already exist; otherwise the new .mfu file will not be created.

test-suite

A COBOL program compiled to .so , or an .mfu batch file.
