You’ll need:
- Haskell Platform. It includes (among other things) Cabal – Haskell build system.
- HSpec – Haskell testing library
cabal update && cabal install hspec
- Ruby – install through rvm, your OS package manager or use system-provided Ruby interpreter.
- RubyGems
- Guard and guard-haskell – for watching your code and executing tests on change
gem install guard-haskell
- in your project –
Guardfile
andyour-project-name.cabal
build descriptor (and of course some code and its tests)
I created a sample project – hspec-kicstart – that bundles everything together.
It has a minimal Guard
and Cabal
configuration, more-than-trivial production code and the test.
After cloning the project
cabal test
should tell you 1 of 1 test suites (1 of 1 test cases) passed
.
guard
and then Enter (runs all tests) yields 1 example, 0 failures
.
Clone it, play with it and enjoy!
