Hi, what would be a way to hook-up say a bash script which runs some tests to pants so that these tests are also run when I run

./pants test ::

? We are trying to hook up a tool called

dbt

which basically supports running some tests for transformations defined using sql/ninja.

dbt

has CLI support but not yet mature python support.

Maybe try: https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/reference-shunit2_test Even though you're not testing bash scripts here with shunit2 tests, which is the "normal" use case afaict, it seems like a reasonable use.

SHunit2 is not super frequently used, so feedback is definitely appreciated on the experience, such as if docs can be improved

FWIW, I use SHunit2 through Pants all the time... it's been such a game-changer

Oh that is awesome to hear! Our shell integration is probably my favorite feature of pants, even though it's pretty niche - it attests to the vision we have of making builds a joy and accessible, even for things like shell scripts

I write a shockingly large amount of Bash code; Pants basically makes that tolerable (dare I say "fun"? 🤔) with the SHunit, shellcheck, and shfmt integrations. It's a one-stop-shop of awesome.

Yay! Would you be willing to let us tweet that? either with or without attribution?

@hundreds-father-404 Sure, go ahead 😄 I don't have an active Twitter account, so don't worry about attribution.

Thank you @brash-baker-91190!
