find_test_scripts

internal

Software testing is important, but, in part because it is
frustrating and boring, many of us avoid it. 'testthat' is a testing
framework for R that is easy to learn and use, and integrates with
your existing 'workflow'.

find_test_scripts function

<dl><dt>path</dt>
<dd>path to tests</dd>
<dt>filter</dt>
<dd>If not <code>NULL</code>, only tests with file names matching this
regular expression will be executed. Matching is performed on the file
name after it's stripped of <code>"test-"</code> and <code>".R"</code>.</dd>
<dt>invert</dt>
<dd>If <code>TRUE</code> return files which don't match.</dd>
<dt>...</dt>
<dd>Additional arguments passed to <code><a href="/link/grepl()?package=testthat&version=3.1.10" data-mini-rdoc="testthat::grepl()">grepl()</a></code> to control filtering.</dd>
<dt>start_first</dt>
<dd>A character vector of file patterns (globs, see
<code><a href="/link/utils%3A%3Aglob2rx()?package=testthat&version=3.1.10" data-mini-rdoc="testthat::utils::glob2rx()">utils::glob2rx()</a></code>). The patterns are for the file names (base names),
not for the whole paths. testthat starts the files matching the
first pattern first, then the ones matching the second, etc. and then
the rest of the files, alphabetically. Parallel tests tend to finish
quicker if you start the slowest files first. <code>NULL</code> means alphabetical
order.</dd></dl>
