navigateTestFileAddin {xpectr}

Navigates to test file

Description

RStudio Addin: Extracts file name and (possibly) line number of a test file from a selection or from clipboard content. Navigates to the file and places the cursor at the line number.

Supported types of strings: "test_x.R:3", "test_x.R#3", "test_x.R".

The string must start with "test_" and contain ".R". It is split at either ":" or "#", with the second element (here "3") being interpreted as the line number.

See `Details` for how to set a key command.
