42FileChecker is a tiny bash script developed at 42 school for testing and checking the files according to the rules of the subjects.

The script is designed as a reminder:

• author file terminated by a Line Feed
• count and files name
• code's standard
• required and forbidden functions
• macro definitions
• static variables & functions declarations
• makefile rules

Extra tests may also be performed:

• memory leaks detection
• speed test comparison
• Unit Tests

Complete unit tests are handled through external frameworks whose sources are automatically downloaded, configured and updated in background when you run the script:

• moulitest, developed by @yyang42 and other contributors
• libft-unit-test, developed by @alelievr
• fillit_checker, developed by @anisg
• Maintest, developed by @QuentinPerez and other contributors
• 42ShellTester, developed by @gabkk and @jgigault

git clone https://github.com/jgigault/42FileChecker ~/42FileChecker
cd ~/42FileChecker && bash ./42FileChecker.sh

You may also want to set an alias to run it from everywhere, even in your project path. Add this line of code at the end of your shell initialization file (e.g.: ~/.zshrc):

alias 42FileChecker='bash ~/42FileChecker/42FileChecker.sh'

At launch, 42FileChecker invites you to get the latest version of the sources when available. You may just simply accept or skip the message.

The non-interactive mode enables you to launch a test suite without any prompt.
You must specify the two options --project and --path.
Here is an example of use with the project libft:

bash ~/42FileChecker/42FileChecker.sh --project "libft" --path "/Users/admin/Projects/libft/"

Required for non-interactive mode.
Specify the name of the project you want to test.
e.g.: bash ./42FileChecker.sh --project "libft".
Must be one of the following values: fillit, libft, libftasm, gnl, get_next_line, ft_ls, ft_printf, minishell.

Required for non-interactive mode.
This option has no effect when used without the option --project.
Specify the absolute path of directory of your project.
e.g.: bash ./42FileChecker.sh --project "libft" --path "/Users/admin/Projects/libft/".

Do not check for updates at launch.

Do not display color tags.

Disable timeout.

Disable a specific test.

42FileChecker has an online wiki that gives you tips and lessons in Bash programming.

• At 42 school, when running the leaks test for the first time, a box can appear and prompt you for administrator username and password. Run the leaks command outside of 42FileChecker and enter exam and exam as username and password, then everything should go along.
