Test.Tasty.Program

This module provides a function that tests whether a program can be run successfully. For example if you have 'foo.hs' source file:

module Foo where

foo :: Int
foo = 5

you can test whether GHC can compile it:

module Main (
  main
 ) where

import Test.Tasty
import Test.Tasty.Program

main :: IO ()
main = defaultMain $ testGroup "Compilation with GHC" $ [
    testProgram "Foo" "ghc" ["-fforce-recomp", "foo.hs"] Nothing
  ]

Program's output and error streams are ignored.
