name	name of the resulting sh_test target	none
archive	Label of the the .tar or .zip file	none
expected	Label of a file containing a (partial) file listing	none
type	"tar" or "zip". If None, a type will be inferred from the filename.	None
kwargs	additional named arguments for the resulting sh_test	none

assert_contains

expected	a string which should appear in the file	none
size	the size attribute of the test target	None
timeout	the timeout attribute of the test target	None

assert_json_matches

assert_json_matches(name, file1, file2, filter1, filter2)

Assert that the given json files have the same semantic content.

Uses jq to filter each file. The default value of "." as the filter means to compare the whole file.

See the jq rule for more about the filter expressions as well as setup notes for the jq toolchain.

PARAMETERS

Name	Description	Default Value
name	name of resulting diff_test target	none
file1	a json file	none
file2	another json file	none
filter1	a jq filter to apply to file1	"."
filter2	a jq filter to apply to file2	"."

assert_outputs

assert_outputs(name, actual, expected)

Assert that the default outputs of a target are the expected ones.

Name	Description	Default Value
name	name of the resulting diff_test	none
actual	string of the label to check the outputs	none
expected	a list of rootpaths of expected outputs, as they would appear in a runfiles manifest	none
