Automated testing

Post by Xantiloth »

What are folks doing for automated integration/system testing? I have some basic assertions for my helper functions but I'm getting super tired of manually reloading scripts and clicking around in the GUI to validate changes.

So far I’ve found FactorioTest https://github.com/GlassBricks/Factorio ... ng-Started and Faketorio https://github.com/JonasJurczok/faketorio so I’m going to look at these.

I’m also considering writing a basic wrapper that will allow me to create test scenarios that build on one another (I’ve done something like this before and it’s great - unfortunately it’s not super portable from one application to another. Docker could alleviate some of that but until I build it a second time I won’t know for sure.)
