Run A Single Unit Test With Rust cargo watch

June 2023

This is what I'm using for a script to run a single test whenever there are code changes.

#!/bin/bash

TEST_NAME=test_posts_basic
cargo watch -i "site" -x "test --lib $TEST_NAME --color always

Notes

--nocapture is what lets dbg!() debugging messages show up. I find that very useful when working through things

☐

Write up the individual parts

☐

Write a post about just running integration tests with --test

☐

Write up about about using all --lib tests
