ChangeScan Quick Start

The "Rockabilly Test Tools" are the distant descendants of old C# projects the author once released under the trade-name "Rockabilly Software," as well as some entirely new code based on the author's professional experiences in test automation. They've been ported to Java and are available under the terms of the MIT license.

USAGE

  1. Create a baseline...

    java -jar ChangeScan.jar ROOT (root folder) SAVE (baseline filename)

  2. Install, Uninstall, or otherwise cause changes...

  3. Scan again, comparing against the baseline...

    java -jar ChangeScan.jar ROOT (root folder) COMPARE (baseline filename) REPORT (report filename)


NOTES

* Instead of ROOT and SAVE, the switch USE provides a comparison between two already existing baselines.
* Report is HTML format.
* Exclude items using EXCLUDE PATTERN (excluded substring)
* Get more detailed output with VERBOSE
* Add more log streams with LOG (log filename)
