terst

-- import "github.com/robertkrimen/terst"

Package terst is a terse (terst = test + terse), easy-to-use testing library for Go.

terst is compatible with (and works via) the standard testing package: http://golang.org/pkg/testing

var is = terst.Is

func Test(t *testing.T) {
    terst.Terst(t, func() {
        is("abc", "abc")

        is(1, ">", 0)

        var abc []int
        is(abc, nil)
    }
}

Do not import terst directly, instead use terst-import to copy it into your testing environment:

https://github.com/robertkrimen/terst/tree/master/terst-import

$ go get github.com/robertkrimen/terst/terst-import

$ terst-import

Usage

func Is

func Is(arguments ...interface{}) bool

Is compares two values (got & expect) and returns true if the comparison is true, false otherwise. In addition, if the comparison is false, Is will report the error in a manner similar to testing.T.Error(...). Is also takes an optional argument, a comparator, that changes how the comparison is made. The following comparators are available:

==      # got == expect (default)
!=      # got != expect

>       # got > expect (float32, uint, uint16, int, int64, ...)
>=      # got >= expect
<       # got < expect
<=      # got <= expect

=~      # regexp.MustCompile(expect).Match{String}(got)
!~      # !regexp.MustCompile(expect).Match{String}(got)

Basic usage with the default comparator (==):

Is(<got>, <expect>)

Specifying a different comparator:

Is(<got>, <comparator>, <expect>)

A simple comparison:

Is(2 + 2, 4)

A bit trickier:

Is(1, ">", 0)
Is(2 + 2, "!=", 5)
Is("Nothing happens.", "=~", `ing(\s+)happens\.$`)

Is should only be called under a Terst(t, ...) call. For a standalone version, use IsErr. If no scope is found and the comparison is false, then Is will panic the error.

func IsErr

func IsErr(arguments ...interface{}) error

IsErr compares two values (got & expect) and returns nil if the comparison is true, an ErrFail if the comparison is false, or an ErrInvalid if the comparison is invalid. IsErr also takes an optional argument, a comparator, that changes how the comparison is made.

Is & IsErr are similar but different:

Is(...)     // Should only be called within a Terst(...) call
IsErr(...)  // A standalone comparator, the same as Is, just without the automatic reporting

func Terst

func Terst(t *testing.T, arguments ...func())

Terst creates a testing scope, where Is can be called and errors will be reported according to the top-level location of the comparison, and not where the Is call actually takes place. For example:

func test(value int) {
    Is(value, 5) // <--- This failure is reported below.
}

Terst(t, func(){

    Is(2, ">", 3) // <--- An error is reported here.

    test(5) // <--- An error is reported here.

})

type Call

type Call struct {
}

Call is a reference to a line immediately under a Terst testing scope.

func Caller

func Caller() *Call

Caller will search the stack, looking for a Terst testing scope. If a scope is found, then Caller returns a Call for logging errors, accessing testing.T, etc. If no scope is found, Caller returns nil.

func (*Call) Error

func (cl *Call) Error(arguments ...interface{})

Error is the terst version of testing.T.Error

func (*Call) Errorf

func (cl *Call) Errorf(format string, arguments ...interface{})

Errorf is the terst version of testing.T.Errorf

func (*Call) Log

func (cl *Call) Log(arguments ...interface{})

Log is the terst version of testing.T.Log

func (*Call) Logf

func (cl *Call) Logf(format string, arguments ...interface{})

Logf is the terst version of testing.T.Logf

func (*Call) Skip

func (cl *Call) Skip(arguments ...interface{})

Skip is the terst version of testing.T.Skip

func (*Call) Skipf

func (cl *Call) Skipf(format string, arguments ...interface{})

Skipf is the terst version of testing.T.Skipf

func (*Call) T

func (cl *Call) T() *testing.T

T returns the original testing.T passed to Terst(...)

func (*Call) TestFunc

func (cl *Call) TestFunc() *runtime.Func

TestFunc returns the *runtime.Func entry for the top-level Test...(t testing.T) function.

type ErrFail

type ErrFail error

ErrFail indicates a comparison failure (e.g. 0 > 1).

type ErrInvalid

type ErrInvalid error

ErrInvalid indicates an invalid comparison (e.g. bool == string).
