devtools (version 0.2)

run_examples: Run all examples in a package.

Description

Run all examples in a package.

Usage

run_examples(pkg, start)

Arguments

pkg

package description, can be path or package name. See as.package for more information

start

name of Rd file to start with - if omitted, will start with the (lexicographically) first file. This is useful if you have a lot of examples and don't want to rerun them every time when you fix a problem.

Details

One of the most frustrating parts of `R CMD check` is getting all of your examples to pass - whenever one fails you need to fix the problem and then restart the whole process. This function makes it a little easier by making it possible to run all examples from an R function.
