bats/helpers: Add run convenience functions#196
Merged
Conversation
Also adds `restore_programs_in_path`, which allows a single call to remove multiple command stub scripts. `run_test_script` creates and runs a test script in one step, so that `create_bats_test_script` and `run` need not be called separately. `run_bats_test_suite` is a specialized version of `run_test_script` specifically for generating and running Bats test cases. `run_bats_test_suite_in_isolation` is an even more specialized version of `run_bats_test_suite` to ensure that `PATH` is restricted to `BATS_TEST_BINDIR` and the Bats `libexec/` directory within the suite. Along with `stub_program_in_path` and `create_forwarding_script`, this is useful for testing helper functions whose behavior depends on the available system commands, such as `skip_if_...` helpers.
