There is more then one way to test it ...

How to test Powershell modules using Perl6 and Tomty

Welcome Tomty

Tomty is a Sparrow6 based testing framework, written in Perl6. We use it to write tests.

Install

zef install Tomty

Usage

Write Powershell module

modules/hello/hello.ps1

function Hello {

  param(
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]
    [String]$name
  )

  Write-Host Hello $name
}

Write wrapper

mkdir -p .tomty/tasks/test-hello

.tomty/tasks/test-hello/task.ps1:

Import-Module hello
$name = config 'name'
Hello -name $name

.tom/tasks/test-hello/task.check:

generator: print "Hello ".( config()->{name} )

Write test

tomty --edit test-hello

task-run ".tomty/tasks/test-hello", %( name => "Sparrow6" )

Run test

PSModulePath=$PWD/modules tomty test-hello

02:47:26 07/27/2019 [.tom/tasks/test-hello] Hello Sparrow6
[task check] stdout match <Hello Sparrow6> True

Run more tests

Once you have more tests, you run them all:

tomty --all

See Tomty documentation for other options.
