Mix test feature: shortcut to run last tests?
some context, I’m running helix+tmux and have some shortcuts to run my tests. I’ve configured some shortcuts like: run line, run file, run all, run stale, run failed tests.
I’d like to be able to have a shortcut: run lasts ran tests. Whatever they were.
The reason is that for example: run tests on a line only works when I’m on that line of the tests.
Let’s say there is a bug, I’m trying to fix the test and I want to run the test again. Now I need to jump back to the testfile. A lot quicker would be: run that last test again.
Does anyone have an idea if this would be possible?

How do you “run line”? If it somehow extracts file path and a line number to run
mix test <file_path>:<line_number>
Then perhaps we could come up with a command that takes the previous command from $history or the previous one that starts with “mix test” (from zsh or bash history or whatever shell is used)?

This is the command that I came up with: eval (atuin search --limit 1 --format "{command}" r/^mix test/)
I’m using https://atuin.sh/ and fish shell. So if you want to do something similar you probably will need to change it.
