NAME

       dub - Package and build management system for D

SYNOPSIS

       dub test [<package>[@<version-spec>]] OPTIONS...  [-- <application arguments...>]

DESCRIPTION

       Builds the package and executes all contained unit tests.

       If  no  explicit  configuration  is  given,  an  existing "unittest" configuration will be
       preferred for testing. If none exists, the first library type configuration will be  used,
       and if that doesn't exist either, the first executable configuration is chosen.

       When  a  custom  main  file (--main-file) is specified, only library configurations can be
       used. Otherwise, depending on the type of the selected configuration, either  an  existing
       main  file  will be used (and needs to be properly adjusted to just run the unit tests for
       'version(unittest)'), or DUB will generate one for library type configurations.

       Finally, if the package contains a dependency to the "tested" package,  the  automatically
       generated main file will use it to run the unit tests.

OPTIONS

       --main-file=VALUE
              Specifies  a  custom  file  containing  the  main() function to use for running the
              tests.

       --combined
              Tries to build the whole project in a single compiler run.

       --parallel
              Runs multiple compiler instances in parallel, if possible.

       -f,    Forces a recompilation even if the target is up to date

       --coverage
              Enables code coverage statistics to be generated.

       -b,    Specifies the type of build to perform. Note that setting  the  DFLAGS  environment
              variable will override the build type with custom flags.  Possible names:
                debug  (default),  plain,  release,  release-debug,  release-nobounds,  unittest,
              profile, profile-gc, docs, ddox, cov, unittest-cov, syntax and custom types

       -c,    Builds the specified configuration. Configurations can be defined in dub.json

       --override-config=VALUE
              Uses the specified  configuration  for  a  certain  dependency.  Can  be  specified
              multiple times.  Format: --override-config=<dependency>/<config>

       --compiler=VALUE
              Specifies  the compiler binary to use (can be a path).  Arbitrary pre- and suffixes
              to the identifiers below are recognized (e.g. ldc2 or dmd-2.063) and matched to the
              proper compiler type:
                dmd, gdc, ldc, gdmd, ldmd

       -a,    Force a different architecture (e.g. x86 or x86_64)

       -d,    Define  the specified debug version identifier when building - can be used multiple
              times

       --nodeps
              Do not resolve missing dependencies before building

       --build-mode=VALUE
              Specifies the way the compiler and linker are invoked. Valid values:
                separate (default), allAtOnce, singleFile

       --single
              Treats the package name as a filename. The  file  must  contain  a  package  recipe
              comment.

       --force-remove
              Deprecated option that does nothing.

       --filter-versions
              [Experimental]  Filter version identifiers and debug version identifiers to improve
              build cache efficiency.
