To install:

python3 setup.py develop --user

This installs Falcon in development mode, meaning that it is not fully installed and any changes made do not require re-installation.

For a better experience, add this to the .bashrc file:

alias="python3 <some-path>/falcon.py"

Falcon is meant to be used the command-line. Falcon will create a Python test file (default), a unit test style file, or both. PyTest can be invoked right after creation. Also, coverage.py can be used to measure coverage, however the file must be specified.

By default it accepts a Falcon *.fcn file.

• -t --test [default] creates a Pytest-test file
• -u --unit [optional] creates a unit-test file
• -d --debug [optional] prints the generated tree
• --pytest [optional] runs PyTest after generation
• --cov <filename.py> [optional] measures coverage of the given file using coverage.py

Some examples of how it is used:

• falcon project-tests.fcn to create a basic test file
• falcon project-tests.fcn -t -u to create a basic test file and unit-test style file
• falcon project-tests.fcn -t -u --pytest create files and run PyTest
• falcon project-tests.fcn -t -u --pytest --cov main.py create files, run PyTest, use coverage.py on the specified file
