In R markdown exercises, allow checking of text where there is no header
Inspired by ch1ex3 of Reporting with R Markdown.
The exercise asks students to change a line of text.
The old SCT was
test_rmd_group(1, {
test_text("This is my first R Markdown document", not_called_msg = "Don't forget to change the first sentence to \"This is my first R Markdown document.\".")
})
There is no direct, "check" equivalent to test_rmd_group()
.
The best I could come up with is
ex() %>% check_rmd() %>% {
check_code(., 'This is my first R Markdown document', fixed = TRUE, missing_msg = "Don't forget to change the first sentence to \"This is my first R Markdown document.\".")
}
The problem with this is that it doesn't pinpoint a region of text for the students to look at.
The closest test I can find is here, which uses check_header()
to zoom in. Unfortunately, there is no header element in the document.
Is there a better solution than the one I found? Do we need a check_text_group()
or check_paragraph()
function? Or is this too niche to worry about?
