Example: Languages tests

Global parameters

values- (optional) extensions of languages [".js",".pl",".lua","tcl"]
startFrom - (optional) eg: ".pl" - will start testing from the .pl ommiting the .js (handy in the development)
EndWith - (optional) eg: ".lua" - will stop testing on .lua (handy in the development)
ommit - (optional) eg: [".pl",".lua"] - will ommit these 2 languages..

Each Test parameters

tests (required):

• title - display during testing, the title for the test

• type - shouldContain, shouldNotContain (self explanetory)
  Below is just example when changed shouldContain -> shouldNotContain - display what should not be there...

• params - [commandToExe, StringOrRegularExpression, options]

  • commandToExe - eg: nexss file add Default${ext} --t=default --f - where ${ext} will be replaced by the actual value
  • StringOrRegularExpression - eg: OK File (.*) has been created - regular expression which need to be found OR shouldn't be there (depends on shouldContain or shouldNotContain)
  • options - for now only options.chdir is available eg: {chdir: "MyTestProject"}
