Script/utility that tests sample cases from Kattis locally, built for UAPSC. Furthermore, can submit problem solutions to Kattis problems remotely. See below for details on how to set up remote submissions.

The script supports C, C++, and Python 3.

Usage: ./uatest.sh [options] <command> [-p problem] [file-name]

Note that the file only needs to be specified only the first time either test or submit is called. If no problem id is specified, the problem id is infered from the file name. If the script has been installed as a command, the command uat can be used instead of the script. When no sub command is given, it defaults to the 'test' sub command.

• clean - Deletes test cases and problem meta data.
• test - Tests the file given against sample input. May download test cases when needed.
• submit - Submits the solution code remotely. This is not enabled by default, see below for details.
• install - Installs the script as a command uat, in place of the script. The terminal may need to be restarted.
• uninstall - Uninstalls the command.

• -h, --help, help - Prints a help message and exits.
• -o, --output - When using the 'test' subcommand, print the output of the solution code.
• -p <problem> - Specifies the Kattis problem id to download test cases for/submit to.
• <file-name> - Specifies the file to test with.

Some examples of calling the script:
./uatest.sh clean
./uatest.sh test -p abc soln.cpp
~/<path-to-repo>/uatest.sh -o test -p abc diff_soln.py
./uatest.sh --output test (Assuming the problem and file were specified previously.)
./uatest.sh submit -p abc some_soln.c
./uatest.sh submit (Assuming the problem and file were specified previously.)

To test a given problem, run the script with the subcommand test and give the problem id and file name as arguments. If no problem id is given, it infers it from the file name. Furthermore, the problem id and file name only need to specified the first time test is run, as it remembers the last id and file used.

Initially, remote submissions are disabled. To submit remotely, the user must have an account-specific file called .kattisrc on their system to authenticate them. To download the file, login to Kattis and go to this link:
https://open.kattis.com/help/submit.
The .kattisrc file needs to be moved to the src folder in this repo or the home directory in order for the submit subcommand to work. In reality this script uses one made by Kattis, and just simplifies the process. Furthermore their script needs Python 2/3 to work. Their script, called submit.py, is included in this repo for completeness but was not modified.
