module Test::Unit::Assertions

Public Instance Methods

assert( test, failure_message = UNASSIGNED ) click to toggle source

Tests if test is true.

msg may be a String or a Proc. If msg is a String, it will be used as the failure message. Otherwise, the result of calling msg will be used as the message if the assertion fails.

If no msg is given, a default message will be used.

assert(false, "This was expected to be true")
Calls superclass method MiniTest::Assertions#assert
# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 29
def assert(test, msg = UNASSIGNED)
  case msg
  when UNASSIGNED
    msg = nil
  when String, Proc
  else
    bt = caller.reject { |s| s.rindex(MINI_DIR, 0) }
    raise ArgumentError, "assertion message must be String or Proc, but #{msg.class} was given.", bt
  end
  super
end
assert_block( failure_message = nil ) click to toggle source

Tests the result of the given block. If the block does not return true, the assertion will fail. The optional failure_message argument is the same as in #assert.

assert_block do
  [1, 2, 3].any? { |num| num < 1 }
end
# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 51
def assert_block(*msgs)
  assert yield, *msgs
end
assert_equal( expected, actual, failure_message = nil ) click to toggle source

Tests if expected is equal to actual.

An optional failure message may be provided as the final argument.

def assert_equal(exp, act, msg = nil)
  msg = message(msg) {
    exp_str = mu_pp(exp)
    act_str = mu_pp(act)

    if exp_str == act_str

      elsif exp.is_a?(Time) && act.is_a?(Time)
        if exp.subsec * 1000_000_000 == exp.nsec

        end

        else

        end
      elsif exp.class != act.class
        # a subclass of Range, for example.
        exp_comment = " (#{exp.class})"
        act_comment = " (#{act.class})"
      end

  }
  assert(exp == act, msg)
end
assert_no_match( regexp, string, failure_message = nil ) click to toggle source

Tests if the given Regexp does not match a given String.

An optional failure message may be provided as the final argument.

# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 218
def assert_no_match(regexp, string, msg=nil)
  assert_instance_of(Regexp, regexp, "The first argument to assert_no_match should be a Regexp.")
  self._assertions -= 1
  msg = message(msg) { "<#{mu_pp(regexp)}> expected to not match\n<#{mu_pp(string)}>" }
  assert(regexp !~ string, msg)
end
assert_not_equal( expected, actual, failure_message = nil ) click to toggle source

Tests if expected is not equal to actual.

An optional failure message may be provided as the final argument.

# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 207
def assert_not_equal(exp, act, msg=nil)
  msg = message(msg) { "<#{mu_pp(exp)}> expected to be != to\n<#{mu_pp(act)}>" }
  assert(exp != act, msg)
end
assert_not_nil( expression, failure_message = nil ) click to toggle source

Tests if expression is not nil.

An optional failure message may be provided as the final argument.

# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 196
def assert_not_nil(exp, msg=nil)
  msg = message(msg) { "<#{mu_pp(exp)}> expected to not be nil" }
  assert(!exp.nil?, msg)
end
assert_not_same( expected, actual, failure_message = nil ) click to toggle source

Tests if expected is not the same object as actual. This test uses BasicObject#equal? to test equality.

An optional failure message may be provided as the final argument.

assert_not_same("x", "x") #Succeeds
# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 234
      def assert_not_same(expected, actual, message="")
        msg = message(msg) { build_message(message, "<?>
with id <?> expected to not be equal\\? to
<?>
with id <?>.

        assert(!actual.equal?(expected), msg)
      end
assert_not_send( +send_array+, failure_message = nil ) click to toggle source

Passes if the method send doesn't return a true value.

send_array is composed of:

  • A receiver

  • A method

  • Arguments to the method

Example:

assert_not_send([[1, 2], :member?, 1]) # -> fail
assert_not_send([[1, 2], :member?, 4]) # -> pass
# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 303
def assert_not_send send_ary, m = nil
  recv, msg, *args = send_ary
  m = message(m) {
    if args.empty?
      argsstr = ""
    else
      (argsstr = mu_pp(args)).sub!(/\A\[(.*)\]\z/m, '(\1)')
    end
    "Expected #{mu_pp(recv)}.#{msg}#{argsstr} to return false"
  }
  assert !recv.__send__(msg, *args), m
end
assert_nothing_raised( *args, &block ) click to toggle source

If any exceptions are given as arguments, the assertion will fail if one of those exceptions are raised. Otherwise, the test fails if any exceptions are raised.

The final argument may be a failure message.

assert_nothing_raised RuntimeError do
  raise Exception #Assertion passes, Exception is not a RuntimeError
end

assert_nothing_raised do
  raise Exception #Assertion fails
end
# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 88
def assert_nothing_raised(*args)
  self._assertions += 1
  if Module === args.last
    msg = nil
  else
    msg = args.pop
  end
  begin
    line = __LINE__; yield
  rescue MiniTest::Skip
    raise
  rescue Exception => e
    bt = e.backtrace
    as = e.instance_of?(MiniTest::Assertion)
    if as
      ans = /\A#{Regexp.quote(__FILE__)}:#{line}:in /o
      bt.reject! {|ln| ans =~ ln}
    end
    if ((args.empty? && !as) ||
        args.any? {|a| a.instance_of?(Module) ? e.is_a?(a) : e.class == a })
      msg = message(msg) { "Exception raised:\n<#{mu_pp(e)}>" }
      raise MiniTest::Assertion, msg.call, bt
    else
      raise
    end
  end
  nil
end
assert_nothing_thrown( failure_message = nil, &block ) click to toggle source

Fails if the given block uses a call to Kernel#throw.

An optional failure message may be provided as the final argument.

assert_nothing_thrown "Something was thrown!" do
  throw :problem?
end
# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 127
def assert_nothing_thrown(msg=nil)
  begin
    yield
  rescue ArgumentError => error
    raise error if /\Auncaught throw (.+)\z/m !~ error.message
    msg = message(msg) { "<#{$1}> was thrown when nothing was expected" }
    flunk(msg)
  end
  assert(true, "Expected nothing to be thrown")
end
assert_raise( *args, &block ) click to toggle source

Tests if the given block raises an exception. Acceptable exception types maye be given as optional arguments. If the last argument is a String, it will be used as the error message.

assert_raise do #Fails, no Exceptions are raised
end

assert_raise NameError do
  puts x  #Raises NameError, so assertion succeeds
end
# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 68
def assert_raise(*args, &b)
  assert_raises(*args, &b)
end
assert_respond_to( object, method, failure_message = nil ) click to toggle source

Tests if the given Object responds to method.

An optional failure message may be provided as the final argument.

assert_respond_to("hello", :reverse)  #Succeeds
assert_respond_to("hello", :does_not_exist)  #Fails
Calls superclass method MiniTest::Assertions#assert_respond_to
# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 253
def assert_respond_to obj, (meth, priv), msg = nil
  if priv
    msg = message(msg) {
      "Expected #{mu_pp(obj)} (#{obj.class}) to respond to ##{meth}#{" privately" if priv}"
    }
    return assert obj.respond_to?(meth, priv), msg
  end
  #get rid of overcounting
  super if !caller[0].rindex(MINI_DIR, 0) || !obj.respond_to?(meth)
end
assert_send( +send_array+, failure_message = nil ) click to toggle source

Passes if the method send returns a true value.

send_array is composed of:

  • A receiver

  • A method

  • Arguments to the method

Example:

assert_send([[1, 2], :member?, 1]) # -> pass
assert_send([[1, 2], :member?, 4]) # -> fail
# File lib/test/unit/assertions.rb, line 277
def assert_send send_ary, m = nil
  recv, msg, *args = send_ary
  m = message(m) {
    if args.empty?
      argsstr = ""
    else
      (argsstr = mu_pp(args)).sub!(/\A\[(.*)\]\z/m, '(\1)')
    end
    "Expected #{mu_pp(recv)}.#{msg}#{argsstr} to return true"
  }
  assert recv.__send__(msg, *args), m
