Pester provides a set of extensions that can perform various

comparisons between the values emitted or altered by a test and an expected


value (see about_Should).

RUNNNING A PESTER TEST


Once you have some logic that you are ready to test, run the Tests file
directly,
usually by pressing F5 in your ISE.

To run multiple test file

ltiple test files, get summary for the test run, to get nUnit compatible XML
report or to get PesterResult object use the Invoke-Pester command. You can
zero in on
just one test (Describe block) or an entire tree of directories.

function BuildIfChanged {
# The entries are in ISO/IEC 8859-8 order.
#
# Version history
# 1.0 version updates 0.1 version by adding mappings for all
# control characters.
# 1.1 version updates to the published 8859-8:1999, correcting
# the mapping of 0xAF and adding mappings for LRM and RLM.
#
# Updated versions of this file may be found in:
# <ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/>

Now you have a skeleton of a clean function with a failing test. Pester
considers all files containing *Tests.ps1 to be a test file (see
Invoke-Pester) and by default it will look for these files and run all
Describe blocks inside the file (See Describe). The Describe block can
contain several behavior validations expressed in It blocks (see It).
Each It block should test one thing and throw an exception if the test
fails. Pester will consider any It block that throws an exception to be a
failed test. Pester provides a set of extensions that can perform various
comparisons between the values emitted or altered by a test and an expected
