Structure

The Unit-Tests do not follow exactly the file structure of Powerlevel9k itself.

Basic Tests

Basic Tests belong in test/powerlevel9k.spec if they test basic functionality of Powerlevel9k itself. Basic functions from the functions directory have their Tests in separate files under test/functions.

Segment Tests

These Tests tend to be more complex in setup than the basic tests. To avoid ending up in a huge single file, there is one file per segment in test/segments.

Manual Testing

If unit tests are not sufficient (e.g. you have an issue with your prompt that occurs only in a specific ZSH framework) then you can use either Docker or or our Vagrant.

Docker

This is the easiest to use if you have Docker already installed and running.

The command ./test-in-docker should make it fairly easy to get into a running container with the framework of your choice.

Examples:

# Test Antigen with the oldest version of ZSH
$ ./test-in-docker antigen
# Test Prezto with ZSH version 5.2
$ ./test-in-docker --zsh 5.2 prezto

You can get Docker at https://www.docker.com/community-edition.

Note: Not all frameworks work with all versions of ZSH (or the underlying OS).

Vagrant

Currently there are two test VMs. test-vm is an Ubuntu machine with several pre-installed ZSH frameworks. And there is test-bsd-vm which is a FreeBSD! For how to run the machines see here.
