ExUnit VSCode Extension

Features

Run your Elixir project's ExUnit tests in VS Code's terminal.

Access the available commands using ⌘-/Ctrl-⇧-p (no default keybindings):

1. ExUnit: Run test under cursor
2. ExUnit: Run the current test file
3. ExUnit: Run all tests in current app
   • Child app when in an umbrella
   • Full app when not in an umbrella
4. ExUnit: Run all tests in umbrella app
5. ExUnit: Run failed tests in current app
   • Only tests that failed in the last run
6. ExUnit: Run stale tests in current app
   • Only tests that reference modules that have changed since the last run
7. ExUnit: Re-run the previous test command
   • Run the same command in the same app directory
   • Persists across restarts

Requirements

You must have an Elixir test or code file open and active in your editor workspace and the file must be inside an Elixir project with a mix.exs file. It won't work with standalone .ex{s} files.

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

• exunit.clearBetweenRuns: Specify whether the terminal should be cleared between test runs
• exunit.saveAllBeforeRun: Specify whether to save all files before running tests

Known Issues

When running all tests in an umbrella app, the extension simply runs mix test from the root of your application. It doesn't currently accomodate running tests for all child apps separately.
