# Testing
|
||||
|
||||
Testing is off course great, and well practised in the ruby community.
|
||||
Good tests exists in the parts where functionality is clear: Parsing and binary generation.
|
||||
Tdd, Bdd , Xdd, whatever you call it, i have come to the point where it
|
||||
is a way not only to write software, but to think about software. Ie:
|
||||
- if it's not tested, we don't know it works
|
||||
- test first makes me think about the software from the outside. (good perspective)
|
||||
|
||||
But it is difficult to write tests when you don't know what the functionality is.
|
||||
Also TDD does not really help as it assumes you know what you're doing.
|
||||
|
||||
I used minitest as the framework, just because it is lighter and thus when the
|
||||
time comes to move to rubyx, less work.

### Parfait
|
||||
### Parfait, Risc , Arm , Mom
|
||||
|
||||
Well, test Parfait. Not perfect, but growing as bugs appear. Basics are ok though.
|
||||
Follow the directory structure of the source and may be called unit tests
|
||||
|
||||
### Compiler
|
||||
### Risc/Interpreter
|
||||
|
||||
Different kinds of quite minimal tests that ensure we can go from parsed to code.
|
||||
Contains many system tests that rely on everything else working.
|
||||
Should be hoisted i guess.
|
||||
|
||||
### Fragments
|
||||
### Main
|
||||
|
||||
Much more elaborate tests of the compling functionality. All code constructs and their output
|
||||
in terms of instructions are tested.
|
||||
Much like the Interpreter test, but for Arm. This is where the currently few
|
||||
executables are generated and there is an automatic way of running them remotely.
|
||||
|
||||
### vm
|
||||
|
||||
Mostly tests about the Parfait compatibility layer and padding (for assmenbly).
|
||||
Slightly bad name ... wip
|
||||
The plan is to integrate this with the interpreter directory
