ConciseView shows MyCommand as the prefix to the error message, but for a scriptblock, MyCommand is the whole scriptblock. Fix is to use CategoryInfo.Activity if available first. Also handle case where it's a script function by seeing if it's a command and showing MyCommand in that case rather than the Activity.
With this commit, users who invoke a command with -Debug will no longer be presented with a prompt asking them if they want to enter a nested prompt, continue execution, or halt execution entirely. Instead, any messages sent to the debug stream will simply be sent to the debug stream and the script will continue execution.
Convert ShouldBeErrorId to Should -Throw -ErrorId in PowerShell tests.
Get rid of try { } catch { } formula to assert that errors were thrown.
Small fixes in tests to obey the new Pester -Parameter syntax.
* add common write aliases
* add Message alias to the MessageData parameter for Write-Information
add Msg and Message alias to the Object perameter for Write-Host
* Add tests for new aliases
Based on standard practices, we need to have a copyright and license notice at the top of each source file. Removed existing copyrights and updated/added copyright notices for .h, .cpp, .cs, .ps1, and .psm1 files.
Updated module manifests for consistency to have Author = "PowerShell" and Company = "Microsoft Corporation". Removed multiple line breaks.
Separate PR coming to update contribution document for new source files: #6140
Manually reviewed each change.
Fix#6073
* Test fixes and changes needed to support Pester 4.0.8
* Replace 'Should Contain' with new 'Should FileContentMatch' assertion
Explicitly check for string creation with write-output
* Use the current version of pester and install it in modulesDir
* Simplify logic for relative path test.
Multiple '..' is not needed for a relative path, a single one will do. Also, on multi-drive systems using split-path -noqualifier will probably do the wrong thing with regard to constructing a correct path.
Remove extraneous Should Not Throw test, if this throws, the test will fail, we don't need to explicitly assert the not throw
* In some environments it is possible that computer name is 'localhost', so that should be allowed
* [feature] Add link for migrating tests from Pester v3 to v4
Fix up capitalization and white space issues
Change one test to check FullyQualifiedErrorId rather than just `Should Throw`
* [feature] update invoke-item test to handle the case where multiple notepad processes are running
* Fix spelling issue with Pester 4x, calling it Pester 4 should be sufficient
* Fix GetType() bad pattern and related issues in tests
$var.GetType() can raise an exception in tests so we should check $var
before make the call. A large part of the tests does not make this
check.
I start with searching ".GetType()" but discovered many related issues
in tests (reduntant and unneeded tests, "throw" bad pattens, bugs,
formattings (sorry!) and so on) - I had to fix them too.
* Fix after code review
* Second wave of migration GetType() -> BeOfType
Removed 'GetType().Name' patterns.
* Write-Information accept objects from the pipeline
* Add test
* Fix test
Remove unneeded runspace.
* Clear streams before each test case
Streams of the PowerShell instance might have records from other test runs. Clear the streams before each test case.
This restructuring moves tests to a directory name which matches the module
in which the cmdlet resides which should improve the discoverability of a
specific test.
For tests which are not about cmdlets in a module, new directories have been
created to make those tests easier to find as well
