Testing

Alef supports code-level tests and operational smoke tests.

Alef Tests

@test
fn adds_numbers() {
    assert_eq(2 + 3, 5)
}

Run:

alef test .

Smoke Tests

Public app examples should include scripts/smoke.sh.

For a server example, smoke tests should:

• start the server on localhost
• call real routes
• verify HTML or JSON
• mutate state
• verify the mutation through an API
• call /__shutdown

This is how the TicketDesk UI example proves it is not a static mockup.
