# Tests ## Running tests To run tests, make sure you have `TAP::Harness` and `Test::More` installed, and run ``` prove -I modules -r ``` from the `kdesrc-build` base directory. The `-I` flag adds `kdesrc-build`'s own internal modules to the search path by default. This will run all tests under `t/`, including any (nested) subdirectories. If you want to run specific tests then do ``` prove -I modules t/*.t ``` Replace the last parameter with the tests you want. # Debugging tests To be able to run test files as a normal perl file with debugger, you can create the following script (for example, name it as `direct_test.pl`): ```perl5 #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings FATAL => 'all'; BEGIN { push @INC, "/home/username/kde6/src/kdesrc-build/modules"; } require("/home/username/kde6/src/kdesrc-build/t/integration/branch-time-based.t"); ``` In the **Run/Debug Configurations** create a configuration with the path to the script and working directory. Also, you must add `HARNESS_ACTIVE=1` environment variable, because some code in `kdesrc-build` has conditions depending on if it is running under testing.  In the "Debugging" tab, in "Debugger startup mode" field, select "Stop at first breakpoint".
