R Test Adapter for Visual Studio Code

This extension is built to help you run R tests on VSCode. Currently only testthat and tinytest frameworks are supported. You can run and debug individual tests.

Requirements

This extension expects Rscript to be in the path, or pointed with the RTestAdapter.RscriptPath setting, and requires devtools>=2.3.2 to be installed for the environment Rscript is connected to. Additionally, in order to debug tests, you will need to install:

1. the R Debugger extension
2. the vscDebugger package in R

Only the following file paths are searched for tests (TODO: add .vscode/settings.json options to specify that):

• tinytest: "**/inst/tinytest/**/test*.R"
• testthat: "**/tests/testthat/**/test*.R"
