Crates.io License

A Cargo subcommand to run tests for changed crates and their dependents.

Features

  • Detect changed files using Git, either uncommitted changes or via Git history
  • Identify affected crates based on changed files
  • Run tests for changed crates, and optionally dependent crates
  • Configurable test runner
  • JSON output mode for machine consumption
  • Re-run tests for failed crates

Installation

cargo install --locked cargo-test-changed

Usage

Basic usage

cargo test-changed

Options

  • --changes <MODE>: Compare changes between VCS references instead of uncommitted changes [default: working] [possible values: working, refs]
  • --from <FROM>: Starting reference point for comparison (required when using --changes)
  • --to <TO>: Ending reference point (defaults to current state when using --changes)
  • -r <TEST_RUNNER>: Specify a custom test runner
  • -d, --with-dependents: Include tests for crates dependent on the changed crates in the test run
  • -n, --dry-run: Skip running tests, only print the crates that would be tested
  • -v, --verbose: Display full output while running tests
  • -k, --no-fail-fast: Run tests for all crates regardless of failure
  • -c, --crates <CRATES>: Specify a set of crates to run tests for, typically for re-running failed tests
  • -j, --json: Output in JSON format for machine consumption
  • -h, --help: Print help (see more with '--help')
  • -V, --version: Print version
  • -- <TEST_RUNNER_ARGS>...: Additional arguments to pass to the test runner

Examples

# Run tests for uncommitted changes
cargo test-changed

# Run tests for changes between Git references
cargo test-changed --changes refs --from main --to HEAD

# Run tests for changes between branches
cargo test-changed --changes refs --from release-1.0 --to main

# Run tests for changed crates and their dependents
cargo test-changed --with-dependents

# Use a custom test runner (nextest)
cargo test-changed -r nextest

# Dry run to see which crates would be tested
cargo test-changed --dry-run

# Pass additional arguments to the test runner
cargo test-changed -- --release --all-features

# Generate JSON output
cargo test-changed --json

# Don't stop on first test failure
cargo test-changed --no-fail-fast

# Re-run tests for specific crates
cargo test-changed --crates crate1,crate2

# Verbose output showing test progress
cargo test-changed --verbose

Limitations

  • Currently only supports Git as the version control system
  • Currently only supports cargo and nextest test runners
  • Does not support testing crates in parallel

Development

For development, make sure to use the dev profile so you get full debugging support:

cargo install --path . --profile dev
