the Writing R extensions manual. If you need more flexibility for your
tests, you could look at RUnit on CRAN, or svUnit on R-Forge
(http://r-forge.r-project.org, on CRAN soon). For the later one, you
install it by:
I think the OP was asking about test suites that test the software.
The R package structure includes a test/ directory which you can use
to put tests.
For example, in the onion package I check that I have got my
signs and multiplication table correctly implemented:
