You can use unit tests to ensure your bot will run through your defined user stories while you are working on the bot.

Input format

Input	Description	Example
msg>	Text message sent by the user to the bot	msg> How are you?
msg<	Text message sent by the bot to the user	msg< I'm fine.
int>	Intent that was understood from the user message	int> Intro/HowAreYou()
int<	Bot intent with which the bot responds	int< Intro/ReHowAreYou()
ctx>	Context parameter that is set	ctx> user.firstName = "Freddy"
ctx<	Context parameter that is tested after executing the turn	ctx< global.score >= 0
\#	Comment
---	Separator between dialogs

Additionally, the following rules apply:

• For each turn you need to specify a user input. Everything else is optional.
• The text of the bot response (msg<) can be a regular expression.
• Testing bot intents (int<) currently only checks intent labels, not slots.
• The conversation is reset for each dialog (separated by a line ---).

Here is an example of a valid test:

\# Happy path for flight search

msg> Hey there
int> Intro/Greeting()

msg> I want to fly from SF to London
int> FlightSearch/Find(source="SANFRANCISCO", destination="LONDON")
ctx< global.source="SANFRANCISCO"
ctx< global.destination="LONDON"
msg< Cool, when do you want to fly?

msg> Sometime next week
msg< (Alright|Ok), .*
