Testrocket is a super simple (as simple as it gets really) testing library for Ruby.
It was initially developed for this CodeBrawl competition and it won! People then asked me to release it 'for real' so here we are. | peterc
Install
Notice This is a forked version of the origin testrocket gem!
You have to install this fork by: gem install aki-testrocket
In Gemfile: gem "aki-testrocket"
As yet there are no useful bits and pieces for creating test files (look at the example, it's easy!) or Rake tasks. But it's all crazy simple. A few things may be added later on.
Dependencies
- Ruby 1.9
- minitest/spec (part of MRI 1.9 stdlib)
- Unix/Unix-like/POSIX system
Example
require 'testrocket'
# ===========================================================
# EXAMPLE TEST "SUITE" FOR "DIE"
#
# USAGE
# +-> { block that should succeed }
# --> { block that should fail }
+-> { Die.new(2) }
--> { raise }
+-> { 2 + 2 == 4 }
# These two tests will deliberately fail
+-> { raise }
--> { true }
# A 'pending' test
~-> { "this is a pending test" }
# A description
!-> { "use this for descriptive output and to separate your test parts" }
Launcher Extension
require 'testrocket'
require 'testrocket/launcher' # <-- has to be added manually!
launcher "my bigger test suite" do
fire "first test part" do
+-> { true }
--> { false }
end
fire "second test part" do
+-> { true }
--> { false }
end
end
OUTPUT will be:
LAUNCHING 'my bigger test suite'
FIRE 'first test part'!
OK
OK
/FIRED
FIRE 'second test part'!
OK
OK
/FIRED
HIT 4 of 4 TARGET(S) AND MISSED 0, LOST 0 ROCKET(S)
=> "HIT 4 of 4 TARGET(S) AND MISSED 0, LOST 0 ROCKET(S)"
launcher = something like "describe" in other test suites
The launcher also collects test counts, the positive/negative hits and "lost rockets" (= pending).
fire = something like "it" in other test suites
The fire blocks utilize the description rocket, so you don't have to do it in an extra step, it also adds a closing output line for each fire-block.
Other Features
By default, output is written to STDOUT (as well as returned by the test expressions themselves). You can override where test output goes like so:
TestRocket.out = File.new('/dev/null', 'w')
TestRocket.out also supports Logger instances.
