* Add ShouldProcess to New-FileCatalog and Test-FileCatalog Close #3068 Add support `-WhatIf` and `-Confirm` to `New-FileCatalog` and add a test. `Test-FileCatalog` has a common code base with `New-FileCatalog` so it automatically get the same. I believe that adding a separate test in this case doesn't make sense. * Fiz after code review Remove _ShouldProcess Add var in test
Pester Testing Test Guide
Also see the Writing Pester Tests document.
Running Pester Tests
Go to the top level of the PowerShell repository and run: Start-PSPester
inside a self-hosted copy of PowerShell.
You can use Start-PSPester -Tests SomeTestSuite* to limit the tests run.
Testing new powershell processes
Any launch of a new powershell process must include -noprofile so that
modified user and system profiles do not causes tests to fail. You also must
take care to call the development copy of PowerShell, which is not the first
one on the path.
Example:
$powershell = Join-Path -Path $PsHome -ChildPath "powershell"
& $powershell -noprofile -command "ExampleCommand" | Should Be "ExampleOutput"
Portability
Some tests simply must be tied to certain platforms. Use Pester's
-Skip directive on an It statement to do this. For instance to run
the test only on Windows:
It "Should do something on Windows" -Skip:($IsLinux -Or $IsOSX) { ... }
Or only on Linux and OS X:
It "Should do something on Linux" -Skip:$IsWindows { ... }
Pending
When writing a test that should pass, but does not, please do not skip or delete
the test, but use It "Should Pass" -Pending to mark the test as pending, and
file an issue on GitHub.
