Overview

About

Maintained by Vincent Arel-BundockCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Issues ↗

Snapshots for unit tests using the 'tinytest' framework for R. Includes expectations to test base R and 'ggplot2' plots as well as console output from print().

Changes in 0.3.0

expect_snapshot_plot() no longer skips tests under covr (detected via the R_COVR environment variable), so code exercised by snapshot tests is now counted in coverage reports. Thanks to @katrinabrock for the report (#29).
expect_snapshot_plot() now emits a message when a test is skipped, instead of skipping silently. Thanks to @katrinabrock for the report (#29).
expect_snapshot_plot() gains a theme argument so callers can override or remove the automatic application of ggplot2::theme_test().
expect_snapshot_print() and expect_snapshot_plot() gain an info argument to pass user-supplied context through to the tinytest result, shown when a diff occurs. Thanks to @katrinabrock for the feature request (#30).

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("tinysnapshot", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("vincentarelbundock/tinysnapshot")

Development version from vincentarelbundock/tinysnapshot. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-tinysnapshot

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-tinysnapshot

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-tinysnapshot

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
