3. Moving character

Learning objectives

How to use the Unity InputSystem package to have a generic way of moving your character programmatically in tests.

Exercise

Please make sure InputSystem is installed in your Unity project. You can verify that by checking the Package Manager.

1. Create a new class called MovementTest.cs under Assets/Tests/PlayModeTests.
2. Attach the reference to Unity.InputSystem and Unity.InputSystem.TestFramework in your PlayModeTests assembly definition.
3. Create a new InputControl directory under Tests: Assets/Tests/InputControl.
4. Inside InputControl directory, create a new assembly definition: TestInputControl.asmdef.
5. Create a new class TestInputControl.cs where you implement following properties:

public static bool MoveLeft { get; set; }
public static bool MoveRight { get; set; }
public static bool Jump { get; set; }

6. Go back to your assembly definition PlayModeTests and attach the reference to newly created: TestInputControl.
7. Finally, we need to use our TestInputControl in actual LostCrypt code. Currently Unity's InputSystem does not support an easier way of programmatically doing mocks, please see this git diff to know what to change inside CharacterController2D:

             moveHorizontal = -1.0f;

             moveHorizontal = 1.0f;
 
         movementInput = new Vector2(moveHorizontal, 0);
 
         // Jumping input
-        if (!isJumping && keyboard.spaceKey.wasPressedThisFrame)
+        if (!isJumping && (keyboard.spaceKey.wasPressedThisFrame || TestInputControl.Jump))
             jumpInput = true;
     } 

Now you are ready! Go back to MovementTest.cs and write a test that does not do any assertions (just yet), but only moves the Sara character and makes it occasionally jump.

Hints

• You might want to use WaitForSeconds in your test, to deliberately make it run longer and see actual animation happening on your screen.
• In case of compilation issues, please make sure you follow the right folder structure:

Tests
    InputControl
        TestInputControl.asmdef
        TestInputControl.cs
    PlayModeTests
        MovementTest.cs
        PlayModeTest.asmdef

Solution

PlayModeTests.asmdef

{
    "name": "PlayModeTests",
    "references": [
      "Unity.InputSystem",
      "Unity.InputSystem.TestFramework",
      "TestInputControl"
    ],
    "optionalUnityReferences": [
      "TestAssemblies"
    ]
}
