aldisti / push_swap-tester

A simple shell script to test the push_swap project of the 42Cursus

push_swap_tester

Installation

First, go to the root of your repository (which is where you can find your Makefile) and do:

git clone https://github.com/Aldisti/push_swap_tester.git

after this you have to compile your push_swap and if you have done the bonus part then you have to compile it too. If your Makefile is correct you can do:

make all

next just go inside the tester folder with this command:

cd push_swap_tester

now you can test your push_swap with a bash script, it's easy to use so don't be scared by this long README. Enjoy the tester!

Usage

The bash script is an executable file, so you can run it just by typing ./tester. But to use it you have to add an option, at the moment there are 4 different options. You can see them doing:

./tester --help

the output you'd get should be like this:

 ./tester m	checks for the mandatory part
 ./tester b	checks for the bonus part
 ./tester a	checks for both, mandatory and bonus
 ./tester c	allows you to do custom tests
 ./tester r	allows you to do custom tests in a range of numbers
  -h, --help	display this help and exit

now if you want to test the mandatory part of the project just run:

./tester m

it's the same with the options 'b' and 'a', but if you want to do a custom test you can use the option 'p' with 2 arguments: the stack size and the number of tests to perform.

e.g. if you want to perform 15 tests with a stack size of 500 integers you can do:

./tester p 500 15

Output

After running the test you'll get an output like this: Tests: 15 Size: 500 OK: 15 KO: 0 If all tests are ok then the number after 'OK:' will be colored accordingly to the maximum number of moves made (the grade will be based on the evaluation sheet).

Colors table:

🟩 is for grade 5/5
🟦 is for grade 4/5
🟨 is for grade 3/5
🟧 is for grade 2/5
🟥 is for grade 1/5
