9 bpkg pkg-test|test [options] [vars] pkg...
10 bpkg pkg-test|test [options] [vars] --all|-a
11 bpkg pkg-test|test [options] [vars] (--all-pattern <pattern>)...

14 The pkg-test command tests the specified packages (the first form), all
15 the held packages (the second form, see bpkg-pkg-status(1)), or all the
16 held packages that match any of the specified wildcard patterns (the
17 third form). Additionally, immediate or all dependencies of these pack‐
18 ages can also be tested by specifying the --immediate|-i or --recur‐
19 sive|-r options, respectively. Underneath, this command doesn't do much
20 more than run b test. In the first form the specified packages must
21 have been previously configured with bpkg-pkg-build(1) or bpkg-pkg-con‐
22 figure(1).
23 Additional command line variables (vars, normally config.*) can be
25 passed to the build system. Such variables apply to all the specified
26 packages but can also be specified to only apply to specific packages
27 using the argument grouping mechanism (see bpkg-argument-grouping(1)
28 for details).
29
31 --all|-a
32 Test all held packages.
33 --all-pattern pattern
35 Test held packages that match the specified wildcard pattern.
36 Repeat this option to match multiple patterns. Note that you may
37 need to quote the pattern to prevent expansion by your shell.
38 --immediate|-i
40 Also test immediate dependencies.
41 --recursive|-r
43 Also test all dependencies, recursively.
44 --package-cwd
46 Change the current working directory to the package directory
47 prior to running tests. This may help ported third-party pack‐
48 ages since its not uncommon for tests to expect they are running
49 form the project root directory.
50 --directory|-d dir
52 Assume configuration is in dir rather than in the current work‐
53 ing directory.
54
