eleven-category-test-structure

Structure iTerm plugin shell script tests using an 11-category framework covering script existence, argument parsing, dry-run mode, AppleScript generation, exit codes, error paths, and shell compatibility to ensure comprehensive behavioral coverage.

Validate AppleScript generation by checking the dry-run mode output and verifying the generated AppleScript structure within the 11-category testing framework to ensure correct syntax without executing the commands.

Yes, you can test bash scripts without execution by utilizing the dry-run mode category, which checks if the script generates the correct AppleScript structure safely without applying changes to your iTerm environment.

Ensure correct argument parsing and edge case handling by applying specific test categories that verify flag combinations, detect context environments, and validate script behavior with special characters and complex inputs.

Exit code validation tests fail when error paths for bad input do not produce the correct exit codes, requiring a review of argument parsing logic and error handling structures within your bash script.

Yes, shell compatibility checks are required to ensure the script structure and shell configuration are correct, allowing the script to source utilities properly and detect the operating environment across different setups.
