Run a Test Suite

Using the BAT CLI, you can execute one test at a time or all tests listed in the bat.yaml file for a test suite.

To Run Tests

To run all of the tests that are listed in the bat.yaml file for a test suite, run the bat command at the root level in your test-suite directory. Your bat.yaml file for the test suite must also be at the root level in this directory.
To run a single test that is listed in the bat.yaml file for a test suite, run the command bat ./folder/file.dwl at the root level in your test-suite directory:

folder

Specify the path to the test file.

file.dwl

Specify the name of the test file.

Your bat.yaml file for the test suite must also be at the root level in the test-suite directory.

What to Do Next

By default in the example test suite that you can generate with the bat init command, BAT generates an HTML report about the test results. The configuration of this report is in the reporters section on the bat.yaml file.

+ .The default configuration of the HTML report

reporters:
    - type: HTML
      outFile: /tmp/HTML.html

However, you can receive reports of test failures from several supported applications, not just in an HTMl file. See Configuring and Viewing Reports.
