Usually when you are developing a program you have several auto-test program cases that you would like to execute whenever you do some modification in your program/system. The predicate <A NAME="IDX9785"></A> <CODE>mod_tester/2</CODE> was created with the propouse of execute this test an report to you which of them were correctly executed and which one were not. <UL> <LI><A HREF="ciao_228.html#SEC887">Usage and interface (modtester)</A> <LI><A HREF="ciao_228.html#SEC888">Documentation on exports (modtester)</A> </UL> <H2><A NAME="SEC887" HREF="ciao_toc.html#TOC887">Usage and interface (<CODE>modtester</CODE>)</A></H2> <div class="cartouche"> <UL> <LI><STRONG>Library usage:</STRONG> <CODE>:- use_module(library(modtester)).</CODE> <LI><STRONG>Exports:</STRONG> <UL> <LI><EM>Predicates:</EM> <A NAME="IDX9786"></A> <CODE>tester_func/1</CODE>, <A NAME="IDX9787"></A> <CODE>modules_tester/2</CODE>, <A NAME="IDX9788"></A> <CODE>pred_tester/2</CODE>. </UL> <LI><STRONG>Other modules used:</STRONG> <UL> <LI><EM>System library modules:</EM> <A NAME="IDX9789"></A> <CODE>tester/tester</CODE>, <A NAME="IDX9790"></A> <CODE>lists</CODE>, <A NAME="IDX9791"></A> <CODE>write</CODE>, <A NAME="IDX9792"></A> <CODE>filenames</CODE>, <A NAME="IDX9793"></A> <CODE>compiler/compiler</CODE>, <A NAME="IDX9794"></A> <CODE>terms_check</CODE>, <A NAME="IDX9795"></A> <CODE>conc_aggregates</CODE>, <A NAME="IDX9796"></A> <CODE>system</CODE>. </UL> </UL> </div class="cartouche"> <H2><A NAME="SEC888" HREF="ciao_toc.html#TOC888">Documentation on exports (<CODE>modtester</CODE>)</A></H2> <P> <A NAME="IDX9797"></A> <A NAME="IDX9798"></A> <DL> <DT><span class="define">PREDICATE:</span> <B>tester_func/1:</B> <DD><A NAME="IDX9799"></A> <P> No further documentation available for this predicate. </DL> <P> <A NAME="IDX9800"></A> <A NAME="IDX9801"></A> <DL> <DT><span class="define">PREDICATE:</span> <B>modules_tester/2:</B> <DD><A NAME="IDX9802"></A> <P> <STRONG>Usage 1:</STRONG> <CODE>modules_tester(BaseName, ModulesList)</CODE> <UL> <LI><EM>Description:</EM> modules_tester accepts an atom as basename of the two generated files.
