Provides fixture for tests.
You can use it for any test runner such as `jest`, `ava`, `mocha`, `tap`, etc.

## Install

```sh
# npm
npm install -D @unional/fixture

# yarn
yarn add -D @unional/fixture

# pnpm
pnpm install -D @unional/fixture

# rush
rush add -p @unional/fixture --dev
```

## Usage

`baseline()` is the heart of `@unional/fixture`.
You can use it to read a folder containing multiple test cases and use them in your test runner.

```ts
import { baseline } from '@unional/fixture'

// basic usage
baseline('fixtures', ({ caseName, caseType, casePath, resultPath, match, copyToBaseline }) => {
// `test()` comes from your favorite test runner.
// e.g. `ava`, `jest`, `mocha`
test(caseName, async () => {
// this example assumes `caseType === 'file'`,
// so the `casePath` points to the input file directly.
fs.readFileSync(casePath, 'utf-8')

// `resultPath` points to a folder where you can save your result(s)
fs.writeFileSync(path.join(resultPath, 'output.txt', ''))

// compare result and baseline folder
await match()

// match compares specific file in result folder and baseline folder
await match('output.txt')

// if you are happy with the change,
// use this to copy the artifacts from result folder to baseline folder,
// or you can do that manually from your IDE.
await copyToBaseline('*.txt')
})

// advance usage
baseline({
basePath: 'fixtures',
// default: 'cases'
casesFolder: 'scenarios',
// default: 'results'
resultsFolder: 'actuals',
// default: 'baselines'
baselinesFolder: 'expects',
// filter for specific cases
// can use wildcards or RegExp
filter: '*.pass',
// By default warning messages will be displayed when some test cases are filtered.
// Use this to suppress those warnings.
suppressFilterWarnings: true,
// If the file has more lines than this threshold,
// then the file will be diff with line numbers,
// and the unchanged lines will be trimmed off.
largeFileThreshold: 100,
// Controls how many unchanged lines will be shown around the changes.
largeFileAmbientLines: 5,
/**
* Maximum number of diff lines to show.
* If there are more diff lines,
* the remaining will be timmed and show a summary instead.
*/
diffDisplayThreshold: 150
}, (context) => {
...
})
})

```

### Command Testing

In addition to `baseline()`,
`@unional/fixture` provides `execCommand()` and `writeCommandResult()` to run command line test within the fixture.

If the test case is a JSON or YAML, it will read and execute the command within.
If the test case is a folder, it will look for a `command.json|yml|yaml` in the folder and does the same.

More file types and features will be added in the future.

Here is a common way to use them:

```ts
import { baseline, execCommand, writeCommandResult } from '@unional/fixture'

baseline('fixtures/command', ({ caseType, caseName, casePath, resultPath, match }) => {
it(caseName, async () => {
writeCommandResult(
resultPath,
await execCommand({ caseType, caseName, casePath })
)
return match()
})
})
```

The `execCommand()` has an alternative signature that allows you to easily run and capture `stdout` and `stderr`:

```ts
const { stdout, stderr } = await execCommand({ casePath, command, args })
```

## Contribute

```sh
# right after fork
yarn

# begin making changes
git checkout -b
yarn watch

# edit `webpack.config.dev.js` to exclude dependencies for the global build.

# after making change(s)
git commit -m ""
git push

# create PR
```

## Commands

There are a few useful commands you can use during development.

```sh
# Run tests (and lint) automatically whenever you save a file.
yarn watch

# Run tests with coverage stats (but won't fail you if coverage does not meet criteria)
yarn test

# Manually verify the project.
# This will be ran during 'npm preversion' so you normally don't need to run this yourself.
yarn verify

# Build the project.
# You normally don't need to do this.
yarn build

# Run tslint
# You normally don't need to do this as `yarn watch` and `npm version` will automatically run lint for you.
yarn lint
```
