We already have tests for the internal helpers, but it's nice to give authors of external tools an easy way to sanity-check their helpers. If you have written the "git-credential-foo" helper, you can do so with: GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER=foo \ make t0303-credential-external.sh This assumes that your helper is capable of both storing and retrieving credentials (some helpers may be read-only, and they will fail these tests). If your helper supports time-based expiration with a configurable timeout, you can test that feature like this: GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER_TIMEOUT="foo --timeout=1" \ make t0303-credential-external.sh Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> --- I haven't tried porting or testing any of the older helpers to the new interface. So this script has only been lightly tested with: GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER=cache t/t0303-credential-external.sh | 19 +++++++++++++++++++ 1 files changed, 19 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) create mode 100755 t/t0303-credential-external.sh diff --git a/t/t0303-credential-external.sh b/t/t0303-credential-external.sh new file mode 100755 index 0000000..f3953d4 --- /dev/null +++ b/t/t0303-credential-external.sh @@ -0,0 +1,19 @@ +#!/bin/sh + +test_description='external credential helper tests' +. ./test-lib.sh +.
