# Using the Documentation
The web pages generated by rustdoc present the same logical hierarchy that one
To test documentation, the `--test` argument is passed to rustdoc:
-~~~ {.notrust}
+~~~ {.sh}
rustdoc --test crate.rs
~~~
## Defining tests
Rust documentation currently uses the markdown format, and rustdoc treats all
-code blocks as testable-by-default. In order to not run a test over a block of
-code, the `ignore` string can be added to the three-backtick form of markdown
-code block.
+code blocks as testable-by-default unless they carry a language tag of another
+language. In order to not run a test over a block of code, the `ignore` string
+can be added to the three-backtick form of markdown code block.
-~~~notrust
+~~~md
```
// This is a testable code block
```
+```rust{.example}
+// This is rust and also testable
+```
+
```ignore
// This is not a testable code block
```
// This is a testable code block (4-space indent)
+
+```sh
+# this is shell code and not tested
+```
~~~
You can specify that the test's execution should fail with the `should_fail`
directive.
-~~~notrust
+~~~md
```should_fail
// This code block is expected to generate a failure when run
```
You can specify that the code block should be compiled but not run with the
`no_run` directive.
-~~~notrust
+~~~md
```no_run
// This code will be compiled but not executed
```
~~~
+Lastly, you can specify that a code block be compiled as if `--test`
+were passed to the compiler using the `test_harness` directive.
+
+~~~md
+```test_harness
+#[test]
+fn foo() {
+ fail!("oops! (will run & register as failure)")
+}
+```
+~~~
+
Rustdoc also supplies some extra sugar for helping with some tedious
documentation examples. If a line is prefixed with `# `, then the line
will not show up in the HTML documentation, but it will be used when
testing the code block (NB. the space after the `#` is required, so
that one can still write things like `#[deriving(Eq)]`).
-~~~notrust
+~~~md
```
# /!\ The three following lines are comments, which are usually stripped off by
# the doc-generating tool. In order to display them anyway in this particular
rustc's `--test` flag. Extra arguments can be passed to rustdoc's test harness
with the `--test-args` flag.
-~~~ {.notrust}
+~~~console
# Only run tests containing 'foo' in their name
$ rustdoc --test lib.rs --test-args 'foo'
There are 4 options to modify the output that Rustdoc creates.
- `--markdown-css PATH`: adds a `<link rel="stylesheet">` tag pointing to `PATH`.
