My python program asks for several inputs in an order and determine what output is needed. It works fine when using under python shell.
Now I'm trying to use windows batch file to create a testing program, which will read through text files and take contents from each text file as inputs for each test case.
I'm kinda new to batch files, so I'm not sure how to give python inputs inside this batch file. I tried to pass arguments by doing:
python.exe S_bank.py input
but then it just pop up the command line window without any inputs.
here is what I got so far(which doesn't work at all):
@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
set line=0
for /r %%A in (*.txt) do (
echo running test %%A >> frontendlog.txt
start "C:\Python27\python.exe" "Z:\personal\test\S_bank.py"
for /F %%i in (%%A) do (
"Z:\personal\test\S_bank.py" %%i >> frontendlog.txt
)
)

If your python code "asks" for input, the simplest way to automate it with batch is to prepare an answer text file for each of the cases to test, with a line for each of the prompts that the python program will use to retrieve information. Then iterate over the list of input files calling the python program with the answers file piped or redirected to it, so, the information is retrieved from the pipe insted of the console
So, for a simple code like
test.py
input_var1 = raw_input("Enter something: ")
input_var2 = raw_input("Enter something: ")
print ("you entered: " + input_var1 + ", " + input_var2)
And answer files as
file1.txt
one
two
file2.txt
three
four
You will have a batch file as
@echo off
setlocal enableextensions disabledelayedexpansion
for %%a in ("file*.txt") do (
)
That is, for each answer file, call the python program, but redirect the answer file as input stream to the program
