Is there a way to run tests of the current opened file and get output in other window like vim-QuickRun does?

Right now I'm running tests by the command in command line:

/vagrant/my_project/app/Console/cake test app Console/Command/FeedParseShell

+++UPDATE+++

I'm calling cake command in the project folder by absolute path, because I have several projects on my virtual machine. I'm still not aware how to make vim to know where is the root folder of the project It's currently in. And then I tell CakePHP console what command I want it to run by specifying the option test and write the path to the test file. It looks like this:

/vagrant/my_project/app/Console/cake test app Console/Command/FeedParseShell

(app is not necessary - we can specify the absolute path to the test file without app like:

/vagrant/my_project/app/Console/cake test /vagrant/my_project/app/Test/Case/Console/Command/FeedParseShell

)

Test files are locatedy in different folders. Here is the structure of Test/Case folder:

Console  Controller  Lib  Model  View  allTest.php

I'm not familiar with CakePHP, but you could use :make for it:

set makeprg=/vagrant/my_project/app/Console/cake\ test\ app\ Console/Command/FeedParseShell

Then, if you run :make, the output of this command will be used to populate the quickfix list (which can be useful if the output identifies offending line numbers).

  • @whitesiroi No problem. I had a clarification to ask: What does your general /vagrant/my_project/app/Console/cake usage look like? Does it change with the current file, etc.? We could come up with a more general command.
