This provides two fixtures
- `datalad_interactive_ui`
- `datalad_noninteractive_ui`
that can be used to test user interaction or communication sequences.
Unlike the datalad-core test UI, this is not only provisioning
user input. In addition, it allows for inspecting a detailed UI
call log, and offers a text-rendering to easy debugging:
```
(Pdb) print(iu)
InteractiveTestUI(
question: (('attr1',), {'title': 'dummyquestion'})
response: attr1
question: (('attr2',), {'title': None})
response: attr2
question: (('secret',), {'title': None, 'repeat': True, 'hidden': True})
response: secret
(unused responses: [])
)
```
Closes datalad#423

with_testuiis useful for passing precrafted user input to code for user interaction. However, the implementation in datalad-core fully replaced the UI and is not just passing the inputs. This makes it impossible to implement that aim to ensure a particular user interaction (flow of questions and responses), because no output is generated and fixtures likecapsysofcapfdcannot be used.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
