Testing on the Swift track

Learn how to test your Swift exercises on Exercism

Running Tests

When you are in the directory for an exercise, you should see two subdirectories:

  • Sources/<Exercise> contains your solution to the exercise
  • Tests/<Exercise>Tests contains the tests to run for the exercise

If you're in the right directory (i.e. the one containing Sources and Tests), you can run the tests for that exercise by running swift test:

$ pwd
/Users/johndoe/Code/exercism/swift/hello-world

$ ls
HELP.md  Package.swift  README.md  Sources  Tests

$ swift test

When you got a test passing remove .enabled(if: RUNALL) in the @Test statement to enable the next test, alternatively you can run all the tests with the RUNALL environment variable set to true on Linux or macOS:

$ export RUNALL=true

Or if you are using PowerShell on Windows:

set RUNALL=true

Submitting Your Solution

To upload a solution to Exercism, you have to be in the directory containing the Sources and Tests directories.

$ exercism submit
