When /^I (run|try) ([^]+)`$/

Run or try a given command.


Usage

run expects an exit code 0, whereas try allows for non-zero exit codes.

So if using run and the command errors, the step will fail.

Scenario: My example scenario
  When I run `wp core version`
  Then STDOUT should contain:
    """
    6.8
    """

Scenario: My other scenario
  When I try `wp i18n make-pot foo bar/baz.pot`
  Then STDERR should contain:
    """
    Error: Not a valid source directory.
    """
  And the return code should be 1
