How do I run a whole test suite with Guile's default test runner

How do I run a whole test suite with Guile's default test runner

[Luis Felipe López Acevedo]

Hi,

I'm learning to program in Guile Scheme and currently reading and 
practicing unit testing with SRFI-64.

How do I make the default test runner in Guile run my whole test suite? 
I put all tests in a tests directory (see 
<https://bitbucket.org/sirgazil/guilelab/src>).

Thanks,

The way you wrote that file, the test suite will be run when you load
the module.  Instead, you could wrap all those top-level forms (sans the
module declaration) in some kind of 'main' procedure.

And for what it's worth, I have an arguably cleaner implementation of
SRFI-64 here, but it's an R7RS library so it won't work out-of-the-box
on Guile yet: https://gitorious.org/taylan-scheme/srfi/

Yeah, loading the module is what I currently use to run the tests in one 
file, but that won't be convenient when I add more modules and tests. I 
thought that maybe there was something like Python's test discovery, 
where you run `$ python -m unittest` and it will find all the tests 
instead of loading files individually by hand.

Maybe I'll try using a main procedure as you suggest.

Guile 2.0.12 onward will also ship SRFI-64.

2.0.11 already has the reference implementation (improved for Guile by
Mark) wrapped into a Guile module, which I was contrasting mine to.

Oh sorry for the confusion, I thought 2.0.11 didn’t have it.

OK, understood.
