True, but that shouldn't be a good enough excuse for not running unit tests. #503: Use string/null gui for unit tests <https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues/503> would help a lot. It's a tricky project, but it would save us all a lot of time. Another option would be to disable tests that fail when focus changes. > As a first(*) step to making them less intrusive I'd like to launch > them from the command line - specifically like this: > > DISPLAY=:10 python launchLeo.py leo/test/leoUnittests.leo --run-tests > > or whatever, there are other options maybe using --script or setting an > environment variable. > > Question: is there a way to make Leo run the tests from the command > line currently?

And no, I don't remember what --script=SCRIPT does ;-) Edward -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
