Run transformations on all *-in.R files in a test directory and compare them with their *-out.R counterpart.
test_collection(test, sub_test = NULL, write_back = TRUE, write_tree = NA,
transformer, ...)The test to run. It corresponds to a folder name in tests/testthat.
A regex pattern to further reduce the amount of test files
to be tested in the test. sub_test must match the beginning of file
names in tests/testthat. NULL matches all files.
Whether the results of the transformation should be written to the output file.
Whether or not the tree structure of the test should be
computed and written to a file. Note that this needs R >= 3.2
(see set_arg_write_tree()). If the argument is set to NA, the function
determines whether R >= 3.2 is in use and if so, trees will be written.
A function to apply to the content of in_item.
Parameters passed to transformer function.
Each file name that matches test and sub_test and ends with
"-in.R" is considered as an input to test. Its counterpart,
the reference to compare it against is the *-out.R file. It is constructed
by taking the substring of the *-in.R file before the
first dash and adding -out.R. This allows for multiple in.R files to
share one out.R file. You could have one_line-out.R as the reference to
compare one_line-random-something-stuff-in.R and
one_line-random-but-not-so-much-in.R.
This also implies that -out.R files cannot have more than one dash in their name, i.e. just the one before out.R.
