bii test uses the patterns defined in the [tests]
section of the biicode.conf to execute tests your block’s tests.
$ bii test
bii test command wraps bii build and ctest. Now your tests are fully configurable with CTest CMake options.
$ bii test -E _main -R test_
Check CTest docs to know more.
bii test command truly runs:
$ bii test -VV (ctest extra verbose option)
But when using Visual Studio, bii test is truly executing:
$ bii test -VV -C Debug
Note that bii test command supports CMake and CTest options, like:
$ bii test -C Release
Also enables -jx option to launch build and/or tests with this flag (they’ve got different effects):
$ bii test -j2 == $ bii build -j2 + $ bii test -j2
