Starts the EUnit server. Normally, you don't need to call this function; it is started automatically.

Stops the EUnit server. Normally, you don't need to call this function.

Equivalent to test(Tests, []).

Runs a set of tests. The format of Tests is described in the section EUnit test representation of the overview.

Example:

  eunit:test(fred)

runs all tests in the module fred and also any tests in the module fred_tests, if that module exists.

Options:

verbose

Displays more details about the running tests.

print_depth

Maximum depth to which terms are printed in case of error.

exact_execution

If this boolean flag is set to true framework will not automatically execute tests found in related module suffixed with "_tests". This behaviour might be unwanted if execution of modules found in a folder is ordered while it contains both source and test modules.

scale_timeouts

If this numeric value is set, timeouts will get scaled accordingly. It may be useful when running a set of tests on a slower host. Examples: {scale_timeouts,10} make the timeouts 10 times longer, while {scale_timeouts,0.1} would shorten them by a factor of 10.

Options in the environment variable EUNIT are also included last in the option list, i.e., have lower precedence than those in Options.
