Choco: Way to load all helper functions into a pester unit test file

[daveMueller]

Hello,

I want to unit test my install/uninstall scripts using pester. Therefore it would be nice if there would be a easy solution to load all the helper functions into the test file. I know I could do it one by one like this:

. C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\helpers\functions\Get-ChocolateyUnzip.ps1
. .\chocolateyinstall.ps1

Describe "Test1"{

However this isn't really comfortable. Does anyone have an idea how I could do this more compact?
Or does a solution for this already exist?

Not sure if chocolatey has a builtin helper load function, but you can always do something like this:

Get-ChildItem -Path 'C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\helpers\functions\' -Filter *.ps1 | ForEach-Object {
    . $_.Fullname
}

This might work.

Import-Module $env:ChocolateyInstall\helpers\chocolateyProfile.psm1
Import-Module $env:ChocolateyInstall\helpers\chocolateyInstaller.psm1

@daveMueller use the second line that @TheCakeIsNaOH posted (the chocolateyInstaller.psm1 one), this will import all of the chocolatey functions and any installed chocolatey extension to the current powershell session.
