Video of functionality

This extension is useful for quickly finding and opening test files. The current keybinding is Ctrl + F1 on Windows or Cmd + F1 on Mac, but I am taking suggestions for what would be better.

Add the extension via the VS Code marketplace, or from the extensions pane in VS Code itself.

Current configuration:

Name Default Description
testFinder.showInStatusBar false Shows a message on the left side of the status bar to indicate whether it has found the test file or not
testFinder.openInSplitView true Open test file in split view or current window
testFinder.csharpGlob Tests.cs Default for C# files (ex: Foo.cs has test file FooTests.cs)
testFinder.javascriptGlob -test.js Default for JavaScript files (ex: foo.js has test file foo-test.js)
testFinder.rubyGlob _spec.rb Default for Ruby files (ex: foo.rb has test foo_spec.rb)
testFinder.typescriptGlob -test.ts Default for Typescript files (ex: MyUtil.ts has test MyUtil-test.ts)
testFinder.typescriptreactGlob -test.ts Default for TSX files (ex: MyComponent.tsx has test MyComponent-test.ts)

Adding support for new test files

You can add support for new test files by adding your configuration to the package.json file like so:

"contributes" {
  "configuration": {
    "title": "Test File Finder Configuration",
    "properties": {
      "testFinder.<languageId>Glob": {
        "type": "string",
        "default": "<append-to-file-name>",
        "description": "..."
      }
    }
  }
}

You also need to update activationEvents for the language you're adding so the extension will start when a file for that language is open:

"activationEvents": [
        "onLanguage:<supported-languageId-value>",
    ]

You can find the supported languageId values here.
