Editing Module:Convert/tester/doc (section)

==Format==
Tests are extracted from a multiline string. Any line that does not start with a template is ignored. Each processed line starts with a template, and is followed by whitespace, then the wikitext which should result from expanding the template.

The expected output must be entered in a single line. If the template outputs multiple lines, those lines must be joined with "\n" (two characters—backslash&nbsp;<code>n</code>).

The templates do not have to be the same, for example, the following tests would work:
<syntaxhighlight lang=lua>
local tests = [==[

{{convert|12|m}}                            12 metres (39&amp;nbsp;ft)
{{convert/sandbox|12|m}}                    12 metres (39&amp;nbsp;ft)
{{age|1989|7|23|2003|7|14}}                 13
{{age in days|2007|5|24|2008|4|23}}         335

]==]
</syntaxhighlight>

In the results, the status column shows "Pass" if the output from the template exactly matches the expected text. If there is no expected text, the template output is shown in the Actual column with a blank status. If the given expected text differs from the template output, the template output is shown in the Actual column with status "Fail", and the number of fails is shown at the top of the page. Searching the page for "Fail" will find each problem. Any "Fail" result is followed by a row showing the nowiki actual and expected wikitext.
