Testing an Unreal Engine project

UET can run automation tests for an Unreal Engine project using just the .uproject file. For a more complete list of options, use uet test --help.

info

uet test only works for .uproject and .uplugin files. If you've set up a BuildConfig.json file, use uet build --test instead.

Testing a project​

To run the automation tests for an Unreal Engine project, run:

uet test

All of the same -e engine argument variations described on the uet build page for projects also apply to uet test.

Specifying the prefix for tests to run​

By default, uet test will run all automation tests that start with <ProjectName>.. You can specify a different prefix with:

uet test --prefix "PrefixToUse."

The trailing dot is optional, but is usually what you want to ensure an exact match on the test namespace.
