Automation test

[j178]

We need an automation test tool to ensure basic command are functional during each commit.

What type of automation do you want? Unit Test or Integration Test?

For the Unit Test, we can just use the original go testing.

Or we can use a testing framework like testify.

For commands testing, we can use something like pseudo-terminal to test them. As I knew, there are some repositories trying to do this like go-expect, pty.

Thanks for the information, that's very useful.

I think I'm gonna go with testing to do some basic stdout output and file creation assertion, not planning to write very thorough unit tests.

Maybe you can list the packages you would like to add tests. I can pick some.

Thank you for your help. I haven't thought about this issue clearly yet, and I don't think I'll work on it very soon.
