cargo-insta: review tool for insta, a snapshot testing library for Rust

cargo-insta provides a cargo command for insta snapshot reviews.

Starting with cargo-insta 1.38.0 you can install prebuild binaries for many platforms, you can also always just install them with cargo install manually.

Unix:

curl -LsSf https://insta.rs/install.sh | sh

Windows:

powershell -c "irm https://insta.rs/install.ps1 | iex"

To install a specific version (in this case 1.38.0):

Unix:

curl -LsSf https://github.com/mitsuhiko/insta/releases/download/1.38.0/cargo-insta-installer.sh | sh

Windows:

powershell -c "irm https://github.com/mitsuhiko/insta/releases/download/1.38.0/cargo-insta-installer.ps1 | iex"

You can also manually download the binaries here:

• aarch64-apple-darwin (Apple Silicon macOS)
• x86_64-apple-darwin (Intel macOS)
• x86_64-pc-windows-msvc (x64 Windows)
• x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (x64 Linux, GNU)
• x86_64-unknown-linux-musl (x64 Linux, MUSL)

Alternatively you can manually build and install them. To install an old version ensure to pass the --locked flag so that the Cargo.lock file is honored:

$ cargo install cargo-insta --version 1.15.0 --locked

Usage

cargo-insta provides a few different commands to interact with insta snapshots.
