test_file

Helper, setup, and teardown files located in the same directory as the
test will also be run. See <code>vignette("special-files")</code> for details.

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'.

test_file function

<dl><dt>path</dt>
<dd>Path to file.</dd>
<dt>reporter</dt>
<dd>Reporter to use to summarise output. Can be supplied
as a string (e.g. "summary") or as an R6 object
(e.g. <code>SummaryReporter$new()</code>).
See Reporter for more details and a list of built-in reporters.</dd>
<dt>package</dt>
<dd>If these tests belong to a package, the name of the package.</dd>
<dt>...</dt>
<dd>Additional parameters passed on to <code>test_dir()</code></dd></dl>

Arguments

Each test is run in a clean environment to keep tests as isolated as
possible. For package tests, that environment that inherits from the
package's namespace environment, so that tests can access internal functions
and objects.
