Testing an Unreal Engine plugin - RedpointGames/uet GitHub Wiki

UET can run automation tests for an Unreal Engine plugin using just the .uplugin 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. :::

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

uet test -e 5.3

As with uet build, you must specify the engine version when running automation tests for a plugin. All of the same -e engine argument variations described on the uet build page for plugins also apply to uet test.

By default, uet test will run all automation tests that start with <PluginName>.. 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.
