/**
* Enables testing of asynchronous code without blocking,
* using a style consistent with traditional AnyFunSuite tests.
*
*
* Recommended Usage:
* AsyncFunSuite is intended to enable users of AnyFunSuite
* to write non-blocking asynchronous tests that are consistent with their traditional AnyFunSuite tests.
* Note: AsyncFunSuite is intended for use in special situations where non-blocking asynchronous
* testing is needed, with class AnyFunSuite used for general needs.
*
*
*
* Given a Future returned by the code you are testing,
* you need not block until the Future completes before
* performing assertions against its value. You can instead map those
* assertions onto the Future and return the resulting
* Future[Assertion] to ScalaTest. The test will complete
* asynchronously, when the Future[Assertion] completes.
*
*
*
* Here's an example AsyncFunSuite:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite
* import org.scalatest.funsuite.AsyncFunSuite
* import scala.concurrent.Future
*
* class AddSuite extends AsyncFunSuite {
*
* def addSoon(addends: Int*): Future[Int] = Future { addends.sum }
*
* test("addSoon will eventually compute a sum of passed Ints") {
* val futureSum: Future[Int] = addSoon(1, 2)
* // You can map assertions onto a Future, then return
* // the resulting Future[Assertion] to ScalaTest:
* futureSum map { sum => assert(sum == 3) }
* }
*
* def addNow(addends: Int*): Int = addends.sum
*
* test("addNow will immediately compute a sum of passed Ints") {
* val sum: Int = addNow(1, 2)
* // You can also write synchronous tests, which
* // must result in type Assertion:
* assert(sum == 3)
* }
* }
*
*
*
* “test” is a method, defined in AsyncFunSuite, which will be invoked
* by the primary constructor of AddSuite. You specify the name of the test as
* a string between the parentheses, and the test code itself between curly braces.
* The test code is a function passed as a by-name parameter to test, which registers
* it for later execution. The result type of the by-name in an AsyncFunSuite must
* be Future[Assertion].
*
*
*
* Starting with version 3.0.0, ScalaTest assertions and matchers have result type Assertion.
* The result type of the first test in the example above, therefore, is Future[Assertion].
* For clarity, here's the relevant code in a REPL session:
*
*
*
* scala> import org.scalatest._
* import org.scalatest._
*
* scala> import Assertions._
* import Assertions._
*
* scala> import scala.concurrent.Future
* import scala.concurrent.Future
*
* scala> import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext
* import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext
*
* scala> implicit val executionContext = ExecutionContext.Implicits.global
* executionContext: scala.concurrent.ExecutionContextExecutor = scala.concurrent.impl.ExecutionContextImpl@26141c5b
*
* scala> def addSoon(addends: Int*): Future[Int] = Future { addends.sum }
* addSoon: (addends: Int*)scala.concurrent.Future[Int]
*
* scala> val futureSum: Future[Int] = addSoon(1, 2)
* futureSum: scala.concurrent.Future[Int] = scala.concurrent.impl.Promise$DefaultPromise@721f47b2
*
* scala> futureSum map { sum => assert(sum == 3) }
* res0: scala.concurrent.Future[org.scalatest.Assertion] = scala.concurrent.impl.Promise$DefaultPromise@3955cfcb
*
*
*
* The second test has result type Assertion:
*
*
*
* scala> def addNow(addends: Int*): Int = addends.sum
* addNow: (addends: Int*)Int
*
* scala> val sum: Int = addNow(1, 2)
* sum: Int = 3
*
* scala> assert(sum == 3)
* res1: org.scalatest.Assertion = Succeeded
*
*
*
* When AddSuite is constructed, the second test will be implicitly converted to
* Future[Assertion] and registered. The implicit conversion is from Assertion
* to Future[Assertion], so you must end synchronous tests in some ScalaTest assertion
* or matcher expression. If a test would not otherwise end in type Assertion, you can
* place succeed at the end of the test. succeed, a field in trait Assertions,
* returns the Succeeded singleton:
*
*
*
* scala> succeed
* res2: org.scalatest.Assertion = Succeeded
*
*
*
* Thus placing succeed at the end of a test body will satisfy the type checker:
*
*
*
* test("addNow will immediately compute a sum of passed Ints") {
* val sum: Int = addNow(1, 2)
* assert(sum == 3)
* println("hi") // println has result type Unit
* succeed // succeed has result type Assertion
* }
*
*
*
* An AsyncFunSuite's lifecycle has two phases: the registration phase and the
* ready phase. It starts in registration phase and enters ready phase the first time
* run is called on it. It then remains in ready phase for the remainder of its lifetime.
*
*
*
* Tests can only be registered with the test method while the AsyncFunSuite is
* in its registration phase. Any attempt to register a test after the AsyncFunSuite has
* entered its ready phase, i.e., after run has been invoked on the AsyncFunSuite,
* will be met with a thrown TestRegistrationClosedException. The recommended style
* of using AsyncFunSuite is to register tests during object construction as is done in all
* the examples shown here. If you keep to the recommended style, you should never see a
* TestRegistrationClosedException.
*
*
* Asynchronous execution model
*
*
* AsyncFunSuite extends AsyncTestSuite, which provides an
* implicit scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext
* named executionContext. This
* execution context is used by AsyncFunSuite to
* transform the Future[Assertion]s returned by each test
* into the FutureOutcome returned by the test function
* passed to withFixture.
* This ExecutionContext is also intended to be used in the tests,
* including when you map assertions onto futures.
*
*
*
* On both the JVM and Scala.js, the default execution context provided by ScalaTest's asynchronous
* testing styles confines execution to a single thread per test. On JavaScript, where single-threaded
* execution is the only possibility, the default execution context is
* scala.scalajs.concurrent.JSExecutionContext.Implicits.queue. On the JVM,
* the default execution context is a serial execution context provided by ScalaTest itself.
*
*
*
* When ScalaTest's serial execution context is called upon to execute a task, that task is recorded
* in a queue for later execution. For example, one task that will be placed in this queue is the
* task that transforms the Future[Assertion] returned by an asynchronous test body
* to the FutureOutcome returned from the test function.
* Other tasks that will be queued are any transformations of, or callbacks registered on, Futures that occur
* in your test body, including any assertions you map onto Futures. Once the test body returns,
* the thread that executed the test body will execute the tasks in that queue one after another, in the order they
* were enqueued.
*
*
*
* ScalaTest provides its serial execution context as the default on the JVM for three reasons. First, most often
* running both tests and suites in parallel does not give a significant performance boost compared to
* just running suites in parallel. Thus parallel execution of Future transformations within
* individual tests is not generally needed for performance reasons.
*
*
*
* Second, if multiple threads are operating in the same suite
* concurrently, you'll need to make sure access to any mutable fixture objects by multiple threads is synchronized.
* Although access to mutable state along
* the same linear chain of Future transformations need not be synchronized,
* this does not hold true for callbacks, and in general it is easy to make a mistake. Simply put: synchronizing access to
* shared mutable state is difficult and error prone.
* Because ScalaTest's default execution context on the JVM confines execution of Future transformations
* and call backs to a single thread, you need not (by default) worry about synchronizing access to mutable state
* in your asynchronous-style tests.
*
*
*
* Third, asynchronous-style tests need not be complete when the test body returns, because the test body returns
* a Future[Assertion]. This Future[Assertion] will often represent a test that has not yet
* completed. As a result, when using a more traditional execution context backed by a thread-pool, you could
* potentially start many more tests executing concurrently than there are threads in the thread pool. The more
* concurrently execute tests you have competing for threads from the same limited thread pool, the more likely it
* will be that tests will intermitently fail due to timeouts.
*
*
*
* Using ScalaTest's serial execution context on the JVM will ensure the same thread that produced the Future[Assertion]
* returned from a test body is also used to execute any tasks given to the execution context while executing the test
* body—and that thread will not be allowed to do anything else until the test completes.
* If the serial execution context's task queue ever becomes empty while the Future[Assertion] returned by
* that test's body has not yet completed, the thread will block until another task for that test is enqueued. Although
* it may seem counter-intuitive, this blocking behavior means the total number of tests allowed to run concurrently will be limited
* to the total number of threads executing suites. This fact means you can tune the thread pool such that maximum performance
* is reached while avoiding (or at least, reducing the likelihood of) tests that fail due to timeouts because of thread competition.
*
*
*
* This thread confinement strategy does mean, however, that when you are using the default execution context on the JVM, you
* must be sure to never block in the test body waiting for a task to be completed by the
* execution context. If you block, your test will never complete. This kind of problem will be obvious, because the test will
* consistently hang every time you run it. (If a test is hanging, and you're not sure which one it is,
* enable slowpoke notifications.) If you really do
* want to block in your tests, you may wish to just use a
* traditional AnyFunSuite with
* ScalaFutures instead. Alternatively, you could override
* the executionContext and use a traditional ExecutionContext backed by a thread pool. This
* will enable you to block in an asynchronous-style test on the JVM, but you'll need to worry about synchronizing access to
* shared mutable state.
*
*
*
* To use a different execution context, just override executionContext. For example, if you prefer to use
* the runNow execution context on Scala.js instead of the default queue, you would write:
*
*
*
* // on Scala.js
* implicit override def executionContext =
* org.scalatest.concurrent.TestExecutionContext.runNow
*
*
*
* If you prefer on the JVM to use the global execution context, which is backed by a thread pool, instead of ScalaTest's default
* serial execution contex, which confines execution to a single thread, you would write:
*
*
*
* // on the JVM (and also compiles on Scala.js, giving
* // you the queue execution context)
* implicit override def executionContext =
* scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext.Implicits.global
*
*
* Serial and parallel test execution
*
*
* By default (unless you mix in ParallelTestExecution), tests in an AsyncFunSuite will be executed one after
* another, i.e., serially. This is true whether those tests return Assertion or Future[Assertion],
* no matter what threads are involved. This default behavior allows
* you to re-use a shared fixture, such as an external database that needs to be cleaned
* after each test, in multiple tests in async-style suites. This is implemented by registering each test, other than the first test, to run
* as a continuation after the previous test completes.
*
*
*
* If you want the tests of an AsyncFunSuite to be executed in parallel, you
* must mix in ParallelTestExecution and enable parallel execution of tests in your build.
* You enable parallel execution in Runner with the -P command line flag.
* In the ScalaTest Maven Plugin, set parallel to true.
* In sbt, parallel execution is the default, but to be explicit you can write:
*
*
* parallelExecution in Test := true // the default in sbt
*
*
* On the JVM, if both ParallelTestExecution is mixed in and
* parallel execution is enabled in the build, tests in an async-style suite will be started in parallel, using threads from
* the Distributor, and allowed to complete in parallel, using threads from the
* executionContext. If you are using ScalaTest's serial execution context, the JVM default, asynchronous tests will
* run in parallel very much like traditional (such as AnyFunSuite) tests run in
* parallel: 1) Because ParallelTestExecution extends
* OneInstancePerTest, each test will run in its own instance of the test class, you need not worry about synchronizing
* access to mutable instance state shared by different tests in the same suite.
* 2) Because the serial execution context will confine the execution of each test to the single thread that executes the test body,
* you need not worry about synchronizing access to shared mutable state accessed by transformations and callbacks of Futures
* inside the test.
*
*
*
* If ParallelTestExecution is mixed in but
* parallel execution of suites is not enabled, asynchronous tests on the JVM will be started sequentially, by the single thread
* that invoked run, but without waiting for one test to complete before the next test is started. As a result,
* asynchronous tests will be allowed to complete in parallel, using threads
* from the executionContext. If you are using the serial execution context, however, you'll see
* the same behavior you see when parallel execution is disabled and a traditional suite that mixes in ParallelTestExecution
* is executed: the tests will run sequentially. If you use an execution context backed by a thread-pool, such as global,
* however, even though tests will be started sequentially by one thread, they will be allowed to run concurrently using threads from the
* execution context's thread pool.
*
*
*
* The latter behavior is essentially what you'll see on Scala.js when you execute a suite that mixes in ParallelTestExecution.
* Because only one thread exists when running under JavaScript, you can't "enable parallel execution of suites." However, it may
* still be useful to run tests in parallel on Scala.js, because tests can invoke API calls that are truly asynchronous by calling into
* external APIs that take advantage of non-JavaScript threads. Thus on Scala.js, ParallelTestExecution allows asynchronous
* tests to run in parallel, even though they must be started sequentially. This may give you better performance when you are using API
* calls in your Scala.js tests that are truly asynchronous.
*
*
* Futures and expected exceptions
*
*
* If you need to test for expected exceptions in the context of futures, you can use the
* recoverToSucceededIf and recoverToExceptionIf methods of trait
* RecoverMethods. Because this trait is mixed into
* supertrait AsyncTestSuite, both of these methods are
* available by default in an AsyncFunSuite.
*
*
*
* If you just want to ensure that a future fails with a particular exception type, and do
* not need to inspect the exception further, use recoverToSucceededIf:
*
*
*
* recoverToSucceededIf[IllegalStateException] { // Result type: Future[Assertion]
* emptyStackActor ? Peek
* }
*
*
*
* The recoverToSucceededIf method performs a job similar to
* assertThrows, except
* in the context of a future. It transforms a Future of any type into a
* Future[Assertion] that succeeds only if the original future fails with the specified
* exception. Here's an example in the REPL:
*
*
*
* scala> import org.scalatest.RecoverMethods._
* import org.scalatest.RecoverMethods._
*
* scala> import scala.concurrent.Future
* import scala.concurrent.Future
*
* scala> import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext.Implicits.global
* import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext.Implicits.global
*
* scala> recoverToSucceededIf[IllegalStateException] {
* | Future { throw new IllegalStateException }
* | }
* res0: scala.concurrent.Future[org.scalatest.Assertion] = ...
*
* scala> res0.value
* res1: Option[scala.util.Try[org.scalatest.Assertion]] = Some(Success(Succeeded))
*
*
*
* Otherwise it fails with an error message similar to those given by assertThrows:
*
*
*
* scala> recoverToSucceededIf[IllegalStateException] {
* | Future { throw new RuntimeException }
* | }
* res2: scala.concurrent.Future[org.scalatest.Assertion] = ...
*
* scala> res2.value
* res3: Option[scala.util.Try[org.scalatest.Assertion]] =
* Some(Failure(org.scalatest.exceptions.TestFailedException: Expected exception
* java.lang.IllegalStateException to be thrown, but java.lang.RuntimeException
* was thrown))
*
* scala> recoverToSucceededIf[IllegalStateException] {
* | Future { 42 }
* | }
* res4: scala.concurrent.Future[org.scalatest.Assertion] = ...
*
* scala> res4.value
* res5: Option[scala.util.Try[org.scalatest.Assertion]] =
* Some(Failure(org.scalatest.exceptions.TestFailedException: Expected exception
* java.lang.IllegalStateException to be thrown, but no exception was thrown))
*
*
*
* The recoverToExceptionIf method differs from the recoverToSucceededIf in
* its behavior when the assertion succeeds: recoverToSucceededIf yields a Future[Assertion],
* whereas recoverToExceptionIf yields a Future[T], where T is the
* expected exception type.
*
*
*
* recoverToExceptionIf[IllegalStateException] { // Result type: Future[IllegalStateException]
* emptyStackActor ? Peek
* }
*
*
*
* In other words, recoverToExpectionIf is to
* intercept as
* recovertToSucceededIf is to assertThrows. The first one allows you to
* perform further assertions on the expected exception. The second one gives you a result type that will satisfy the type checker
* at the end of the test body. Here's an example showing recoverToExceptionIf in the REPL:
*
*
*
* scala> val futureEx =
* | recoverToExceptionIf[IllegalStateException] {
* | Future { throw new IllegalStateException("hello") }
* | }
* futureEx: scala.concurrent.Future[IllegalStateException] = ...
*
* scala> futureEx.value
* res6: Option[scala.util.Try[IllegalStateException]] =
* Some(Success(java.lang.IllegalStateException: hello))
*
* scala> futureEx map { ex => assert(ex.getMessage == "world") }
* res7: scala.concurrent.Future[org.scalatest.Assertion] = ...
*
* scala> res7.value
* res8: Option[scala.util.Try[org.scalatest.Assertion]] =
* Some(Failure(org.scalatest.exceptions.TestFailedException: "[hello]" did not equal "[world]"))
*
*
* Ignored tests
*
*
* To support the common use case of temporarily disabling a test, with the
* good intention of resurrecting the test at a later time, AsyncFunSuite provides registration
* methods that start with ignore instead of test. Here's an example:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.ignore
*
* import org.scalatest.AsyncFunSuite
* import scala.concurrent.Future
*
* class AddSuite extends AsyncFunSuite {
*
* def addSoon(addends: Int*): Future[Int] = Future { addends.sum }
*
* ignore("addSoon will eventually compute a sum of passed Ints") {
* val futureSum: Future[Int] = addSoon(1, 2)
* // You can map assertions onto a Future, then return
* // the resulting Future[Assertion] to ScalaTest:
* futureSum map { sum => assert(sum == 3) }
* }
*
* def addNow(addends: Int*): Int = addends.sum
*
* test("addNow will immediately compute a sum of passed Ints") {
* val sum: Int = addNow(1, 2)
* // You can also write synchronous tests. The body
* // must have result type Assertion:
* assert(sum == 3)
* }
* }
*
*
*
* If you run this version of AddSuite with:
*
*
*
* scala> org.scalatest.run(new AddSuite)
*
*
*
* It will run only the second test and report that the first test was ignored:
*
*
*
* AddSuite:
* - addSoon will eventually compute a sum of passed Ints !!! IGNORED !!!
* - addNow will immediately compute a sum of passed Ints
*
*
*
* If you wish to temporarily ignore an entire suite of tests, you can (on the JVM, not Scala.js) annotate the test class with @Ignore, like this:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.ignoreall
*
* import org.scalatest.funsuite.AsyncFunSuite
* import scala.concurrent.Future
* import org.scalatest.Ignore
*
* @Ignore
* class AddSuite extends AsyncFunSuite {
*
* def addSoon(addends: Int*): Future[Int] = Future { addends.sum }
*
* test("addSoon will eventually compute a sum of passed Ints") {
* val futureSum: Future[Int] = addSoon(1, 2)
* // You can map assertions onto a Future, then return
* // the resulting Future[Assertion] to ScalaTest:
* futureSum map { sum => assert(sum == 3) }
* }
*
* def addNow(addends: Int*): Int = addends.sum
*
* test("addNow will immediately compute a sum of passed Ints") {
* val sum: Int = addNow(1, 2)
* // You can also write synchronous tests. The body
* // must have result type Assertion:
* assert(sum == 3)
* }
* }
*
*
*
* When you mark a test class with a tag annotation, ScalaTest will mark each test defined in that class with that tag.
* Thus, marking the AddSuite in the above example with the @Ignore tag annotation means that both tests
* in the class will be ignored. If you run the above AddSuite in the Scala interpreter, you'll see:
*
*
*
* scala> org.scalatest.run(new AddSuite)
* AddSuite:
* - addSoon will eventually compute a sum of passed Ints !!! IGNORED !!!
* - addNow will immediately compute a sum of passed Ints !!! IGNORED !!!
*
*
*
* Note that marking a test class as ignored won't prevent it from being discovered by ScalaTest. Ignored classes
* will be discovered and run, and all their tests will be reported as ignored. This is intended to keep the ignored
* class visible, to encourage the developers to eventually fix and “un-ignore” it. If you want to
* prevent a class from being discovered at all (on the JVM, not Scala.js), use the DoNotDiscover
* annotation instead.
*
*
*
* If you want to ignore all tests of a suite on Scala.js, where annotations can't be inspected at runtime, you'll need
* to change test to ignore at each test site. To make a suite non-discoverable on Scala.js, ensure it
* does not declare a public no-arg constructor. You can either declare a public constructor that takes one or more
* arguments, or make the no-arg constructor non-public. Because this technique will also make the suite non-discoverable
* on the JVM, it is a good approach for suites you want to run (but not be discoverable) on both Scala.js and the JVM.
*
*
* Informers
*
*
* One of the parameters to AsyncFunSuite's run method is a Reporter, which
* will collect and report information about the running suite of tests.
* Information about suites and tests that were run, whether tests succeeded or failed,
* and tests that were ignored will be passed to the Reporter as the suite runs.
* Most often the reporting done by default by AsyncFunSuite's methods will be sufficient, but
* occasionally you may wish to provide custom information to the Reporter from a test.
* For this purpose, an Informer that will forward information
* to the current Reporter is provided via the info parameterless method.
* You can pass the extra information to the Informer via its apply method.
* The Informer will then pass the information to the Reporter via an InfoProvided event.
* Here's an example that shows both a direct use as well as an indirect use through the methods
* of GivenWhenThen:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.info
*
* import collection.mutable
* import org.scalatest._
*
* class SetSuite extends funsuite.AsyncFunSuite with GivenWhenThen {
*
* test("An element can be added to an empty mutable Set") {
*
* Given("an empty mutable Set")
* val set = mutable.Set.empty[String]
*
* When("an element is added")
* set += "clarity"
*
* Then("the Set should have size 1")
* assert(set.size === 1)
*
* And("the Set should contain the added element")
* assert(set.contains("clarity"))
*
* info("That's all folks!")
* succeed
* }
* }
*
*
*
* If you run this AsyncFunSuite from the interpreter, you will see the following output:
*
*
* scala> org.scalatest.run(new SetSuite)
* SetSuite:
* - an element can be added to an empty mutable Set
* + Given an empty mutable Set
* + When an element is added
* + Then the Set should have size 1
* + And the Set should contain the added element
* + That's all folks!
*
*
* Documenters
*
*
* AsyncFunSuite also provides a markup method that returns a Documenter, which allows you to send
* to the Reporter text formatted in Markdown syntax.
* You can pass the extra information to the Documenter via its apply method.
* The Documenter will then pass the information to the Reporter via an MarkupProvided event.
*
*
*
* Here's an example AsyncFunSuite that uses markup:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.markup
*
* import collection.mutable
* import org.scalatest._
*
* class SetSuite extends funsuite.AsyncFunSuite with GivenWhenThen {
*
* markup { """
*
* Mutable Set
* -----------
*
* A set is a collection that contains no duplicate elements.
*
* To implement a concrete mutable set, you need to provide implementations
* of the following methods:
*
* def contains(elem: A): Boolean
* def iterator: Iterator[A]
* def += (elem: A): this.type
* def -= (elem: A): this.type
*
* If you wish that methods like `take`,
* `drop`, `filter` return the same kind of set,
* you should also override:
*
* def empty: This
*
* It is also good idea to override methods `foreach` and
* `size` for efficiency.
*
* """ }
*
* test("An element can be added to an empty mutable Set") {
*
* Given("an empty mutable Set")
* val set = mutable.Set.empty[String]
*
* When("an element is added")
* set += "clarity"
*
* Then("the Set should have size 1")
* assert(set.size === 1)
*
* And("the Set should contain the added element")
* assert(set.contains("clarity"))
*
* markup("This test finished with a **bold** statement!")
* succeed
* }
* }
*
*
*
* Although all of ScalaTest's built-in reporters will display the markup text in some form,
* the HTML reporter will format the markup information into HTML. Thus, the main purpose of markup is to
* add nicely formatted text to HTML reports. Here's what the above SetSpec would look like in the HTML reporter:
*
*
* 
*
* Notifiers and alerters
*
*
* ScalaTest records text passed to info and markup during tests, and sends the recorded text in the recordedEvents field of
* test completion events like TestSucceeded and TestFailed. This allows string reporters (like the standard out reporter) to show
* info and markup text after the test name in a color determined by the outcome of the test. For example, if the test fails, string
* reporters will show the info and markup text in red. If a test succeeds, string reporters will show the info
* and markup text in green. While this approach helps the readability of reports, it means that you can't use info to get status
* updates from long running tests.
*
*
*
* To get immediate (i.e., non-recorded) notifications from tests, you can use note (a Notifier) and alert
* (an Alerter). Here's an example showing the differences:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.note
*
* import collection.mutable
* import org.scalatest._
*
* class SetSuite extends funsuite.AsyncFunSuite {
*
* test("An element can be added to an empty mutable Set") {
*
* info("info is recorded")
* markup("markup is *also* recorded")
* note("notes are sent immediately")
* alert("alerts are also sent immediately")
*
* val set = mutable.Set.empty[String]
* set += "clarity"
* assert(set.size === 1)
* assert(set.contains("clarity"))
* }
* }
*
*
*
* Because note and alert information is sent immediately, it will appear before the test name in string reporters, and its color will
* be unrelated to the ultimate outcome of the test: note text will always appear in green, alert text will always appear in yellow.
* Here's an example:
*
*
*
* scala> org.scalatest.run(new SetSpec)
* SetSuite:
* + notes are sent immediately
* + alerts are also sent immediately
* - An element can be added to an empty mutable Set
* + info is recorded
* + markup is *also* recorded
*
*
*
* Another example is slowpoke notifications.
* If you find a test is taking a long time to complete, but you're not sure which test, you can enable
* slowpoke notifications. ScalaTest will use an Alerter to fire an event whenever a test has been running
* longer than a specified amount of time.
*
*
*
* In summary, use info and markup for text that should form part of the specification output. Use
* note and alert to send status notifications. (Because the HTML reporter is intended to produce a
* readable, printable specification, info and markup text will appear in the HTML report, but
* note and alert text will not.)
*
*
*
* Pending tests
*
*
* A pending test is one that has been given a name but is not yet implemented. The purpose of
* pending tests is to facilitate a style of testing in which documentation of behavior is sketched
* out before tests are written to verify that behavior (and often, before the behavior of
* the system being tested is itself implemented). Such sketches form a kind of specification of
* what tests and functionality to implement later.
*
*
*
* To support this style of testing, a test can be given a name that specifies one
* bit of behavior required by the system being tested. At the end of the test,
* it can call method pending, which will cause it to complete abruptly with TestPendingException.
*
*
*
* Because tests in ScalaTest can be designated as pending with TestPendingException, both the test name and any information
* sent to the reporter when running the test can appear in the report of a test run. (In other words,
* the code of a pending test is executed just like any other test.) However, because the test completes abruptly
* with TestPendingException, the test will be reported as pending, to indicate
* the actual test, and possibly the functionality, has not yet been implemented. Here's an example:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.pending
*
* import org.scalatest.funsuite.AsyncFunSuite
* import scala.concurrent.Future
*
* class AddSuite extends AsyncFunSuite {
*
* def addSoon(addends: Int*): Future[Int] = Future { addends.sum }
*
* test("addSoon will eventually compute a sum of passed Ints") (pending)
*
* def addNow(addends: Int*): Int = addends.sum
*
* test("addNow will immediately compute a sum of passed Ints") {
* val sum: Int = addNow(1, 2)
* // You can also write synchronous tests. The body
* // must have result type Assertion:
* assert(sum == 3)
* }
* }
*
*
*
* (Note: "(pending)" is the body of the test. Thus the test contains just one statement, an invocation
* of the pending method, which throws TestPendingException.)
* If you run this version of AddSuite with:
*
*
*
* scala> org.scalatest.run(new AddSuite)
*
*
*
* It will run both tests, but report that first test is pending. You'll see:
*
*
*
* AddSuite:
* - addSoon will eventually compute a sum of passed Ints (pending)
* - addNow will immediately compute a sum of passed Ints
*
*
*
* One difference between an ignored test and a pending one is that an ignored test is intended to be used during
* significant refactorings of the code under test, when tests break and you don't want to spend the time to fix
* all of them immediately. You can mark some of those broken tests as ignored temporarily, so that you can focus the red
* bar on just failing tests you actually want to fix immediately. Later you can go back and fix the ignored tests.
* In other words, by ignoring some failing tests temporarily, you can more easily notice failed tests that you actually
* want to fix. By contrast, a pending test is intended to be used before a test and/or the code under test is written.
* Pending indicates you've decided to write a test for a bit of behavior, but either you haven't written the test yet, or
* have only written part of it, or perhaps you've written the test but don't want to implement the behavior it tests
* until after you've implemented a different bit of behavior you realized you need first. Thus ignored tests are designed
* to facilitate refactoring of existing code whereas pending tests are designed to facilitate the creation of new code.
*
*
*
* One other difference between ignored and pending tests is that ignored tests are implemented as a test tag that is
* excluded by default. Thus an ignored test is never executed. By contrast, a pending test is implemented as a
* test that throws TestPendingException (which is what calling the pending method does). Thus
* the body of pending tests are executed up until they throw TestPendingException.
*
*
* Tagging tests
*
*
* An AsyncFunSuite's tests may be classified into groups by tagging them with string names.
* As with any suite, when executing an AsyncFunSuite, groups of tests can
* optionally be included and/or excluded. To tag an AsyncFunSuite's tests,
* you pass objects that extend class org.scalatest.Tag to methods
* that register tests. Class Tag takes one parameter, a string name. If you have
* created tag annotation interfaces as described in the Tag documentation, then you
* will probably want to use tag names on your test functions that match. To do so, simply
* pass the fully qualified names of the tag interfaces to the Tag constructor. For example, if you've
* defined a tag annotation interface with fully qualified name,
* com.mycompany.tags.DbTest, then you could
* create a matching tag for AsyncFunSuites like this:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.tagging
*
* import org.scalatest.Tag
*
* object DbTest extends Tag("com.mycompany.tags.DbTest")
*
*
*
* Given these definitions, you could place AsyncFunSuite tests into groups with tags like this:
*
*
*
* import org.scalatest.funsuite.AsyncFunSuite
* import org.scalatest.tagobjects.Slow
* import scala.concurrent.Future
*
* class AddSuite extends AsyncFunSuite {
*
* def addSoon(addends: Int*): Future[Int] = Future { addends.sum }
*
* test("addSoon will eventually compute a sum of passed Ints", Slow) {
* val futureSum: Future[Int] = addSoon(1, 2)
* // You can map assertions onto a Future, then return
* // the resulting Future[Assertion] to ScalaTest:
* futureSum map { sum => assert(sum == 3) }
* }
*
* def addNow(addends: Int*): Int = addends.sum
*
* test("addNow will immediately compute a sum of passed Ints",
* Slow, DbTest) {
*
* val sum: Int = addNow(1, 2)
* // You can also write synchronous tests. The body
* // must have result type Assertion:
* assert(sum == 3)
* }
* }
*
*
*
* This code marks both tests with the org.scalatest.tags.Slow tag,
* and the second test with the com.mycompany.tags.DbTest tag.
*
*
*
* The run method takes a Filter, whose constructor takes an optional
* Set[String] called tagsToInclude and a Set[String] called
* tagsToExclude. If tagsToInclude is None, all tests will be run
* except those those belonging to tags listed in the
* tagsToExclude Set. If tagsToInclude is defined, only tests
* belonging to tags mentioned in the tagsToInclude set, and not mentioned in tagsToExclude,
* will be run.
*
*
*
* It is recommended, though not required, that you create a corresponding tag annotation when you
* create a Tag object. A tag annotation (on the JVM, not Scala.js) allows you to tag all the tests of an AsyncFunSuite in
* one stroke by annotating the class. For more information and examples, see the
* documentation for class Tag. On Scala.js, to tag all tests of a suite, you'll need to
* tag each test individually at the test site.
*
*
*
* Shared fixtures
*
*
* A test fixture is composed of the objects and other artifacts (files, sockets, database
* connections, etc.) tests use to do their work.
* When multiple tests need to work with the same fixtures, it is important to try and avoid
* duplicating the fixture code across those tests. The more code duplication you have in your
* tests, the greater drag the tests will have on refactoring the actual production code.
*
*
*
* ScalaTest recommends three techniques to eliminate such code duplication in async styles:
*
*
*
* - Refactor using Scala
* - Override
withFixture
* - Mix in a before-and-after trait
*
*
* Each technique is geared towards helping you reduce code duplication without introducing
* instance vars, shared mutable objects, or other dependencies between tests. Eliminating shared
* mutable state across tests will make your test code easier to reason about and eliminate the need to
* synchronize access to shared mutable state on the JVM.
*
*
*
* The following sections describe these techniques, including explaining the recommended usage
* for each. But first, here's a table summarizing the options:
*
*
*
*
*
* Refactor using Scala when different tests need different fixtures.
*
*
*
*
*
* get-fixture methods
*
*
* The extract method refactor helps you create a fresh instances of mutable fixture objects in each test
* that needs them, but doesn't help you clean them up when you're done.
*
*
*
*
*
* loan-fixture methods
*
*
* Factor out dupicate code with the loan pattern when different tests need different fixtures that must be cleaned up afterwards.
*
*
*
*
*
* Override withFixture when most or all tests need the same fixture.
*
*
*
*
*
*
* withFixture(NoArgAsyncTest)
*
*
*
* The recommended default approach when most or all tests need the same fixture treatment. This general technique
* allows you, for example, to perform side effects at the beginning and end of all or most tests,
* transform the outcome of tests, retry tests, make decisions based on test names, tags, or other test data.
* Use this technique unless:
*
*
* - Different tests need different fixtures (refactor using Scala instead)
* - An exception in fixture code should abort the suite, not fail the test (use a before-and-after trait instead)
* - You have objects to pass into tests (override
withFixture(OneArgAsyncTest) instead)
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
* withFixture(OneArgAsyncTest)
*
*
*
* Use when you want to pass the same fixture object or objects as a parameter into all or most tests.
*
*
*
*
*
* Mix in a before-and-after trait when you want an aborted suite, not a failed test, if the fixture code fails.
*
*
*
*
*
* BeforeAndAfter
*
*
* Use this boilerplate-buster when you need to perform the same side-effects before and/or after tests, rather than at the beginning or end of tests.
*
*
*
*
*
* BeforeAndAfterEach
*
*
* Use when you want to stack traits that perform the same side-effects before and/or after tests, rather than at the beginning or end of tests.
*
*
*
*
*
*
* Calling get-fixture methods
*
*
* If you need to create the same mutable fixture objects in multiple tests, and don't need to clean them up after using them, the simplest approach is to write one or
* more get-fixture methods. A get-fixture method returns a new instance of a needed fixture object (or a holder object containing
* multiple fixture objects) each time it is called. You can call a get-fixture method at the beginning of each
* test that needs the fixture, storing the returned object or objects in local variables. Here's an example:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.getfixture
* import org.scalatest.funsuite.AsyncFunSuite
* import collection.mutable.ListBuffer
* import scala.concurrent.Future
*
* class ExampleSuite extends AsyncFunSuite {
*
* def fixture: Future[String] = Future { "ScalaTest is " }
*
* test("Testing should be easy") {
* val future = fixture
* val result = future map { s => s + "easy!" }
* result map { s =>
* assert(s === "ScalaTest is easy!")
* }
* }
*
* test("Testing should be fun") {
* val future = fixture
* val result = future map { s => s + "fun!" }
* result map { s =>
* assert(s === "ScalaTest is fun!")
* }
* }
* }
*
*
*
* If you need to configure fixture objects differently in different tests, you can pass configuration into the get-fixture method.
* For example, you could pass in an initial value for a fixture object as a parameter to the get-fixture method.
*
*
*
* Overriding withFixture(NoArgAsyncTest)
*
*
* Although the get-fixture method approach takes care of setting up a fixture at the beginning of each
* test, it doesn't address the problem of cleaning up a fixture at the end of the test. If you just need to perform a side-effect at the beginning or end of
* a test, and don't need to actually pass any fixture objects into the test, you can override withFixture(NoArgAsyncTest), a
* method defined in trait AsyncTestSuite, a supertrait of AsyncFunSuite.
*
*
*
* Trait AsyncFunSuite's runTest method passes a no-arg async test function to
* withFixture(NoArgAsyncTest). It is withFixture's
* responsibility to invoke that test function. The default implementation of withFixture simply
* invokes the function and returns the result, like this:
*
*
*
* // Default implementation in trait AsyncTestSuite
* protected def withFixture(test: NoArgAsyncTest): FutureOutcome = {
* test()
* }
*
*
*
* You can, therefore, override withFixture to perform setup before invoking the test function,
* and/or perform cleanup after the test completes. The recommended way to ensure cleanup is performed after a test completes is
* to use the complete-lastly syntax, defined in supertrait CompleteLastly.
* The complete-lastly syntax will ensure that
* cleanup will occur whether future-producing code completes abruptly by throwing an exception, or returns
* normally yielding a future. In the latter case, complete-lastly will register the cleanup code
* to execute asynchronously when the future completes.
*
*
*
* The withFixture method is designed to be stacked, and to enable this, you should always call the super implementation
* of withFixture, and let it invoke the test function rather than invoking the test function directly. In other words, instead of writing
* “test()”, you should write “super.withFixture(test)”, like this:
*
*
*
* // Your implementation
* override def withFixture(test: NoArgAsyncTest) = {
*
* // Perform setup here
*
* complete {
* super.withFixture(test) // Invoke the test function
* } lastly {
* // Perform cleanup here
* }
* }
*
*
*
* If you have no cleanup to perform, you can write withFixture like this instead:
*
*
*
* // Your implementation
* override def withFixture(test: NoArgAsyncTest) = {
*
* // Perform setup here
*
* super.withFixture(test) // Invoke the test function
* }
*
*
*
* If you want to perform an action only for certain outcomes, you'll need to
* register code performing that action as a callback on the Future using
* one of Future's registration methods: onComplete, onSuccess,
* or onFailure. Note that if a test fails, that will be treated as a
* scala.util.Success(org.scalatest.Failed). So if you want to perform an
* action if a test fails, for example, you'd register the callback using onSuccess.
*
*
*
* Here's an example in which withFixture(NoArgAsyncTest) is used to take a
* snapshot of the working directory if a test fails, and
* send that information to the standard output stream:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.noargasynctest
*
* import java.io.File
* import org.scalatest._
* import scala.concurrent.Future
*
* class ExampleSuite extends funsuite.AsyncFunSuite {
*
* override def withFixture(test: NoArgAsyncTest) = {
*
* super.withFixture(test) onFailedThen { _ =>
* val currDir = new File(".")
* val fileNames = currDir.list()
* info("Dir snapshot: " + fileNames.mkString(", "))
* }
* }
*
* def addSoon(addends: Int*): Future[Int] = Future { addends.sum }
*
* test("This test should succeed") {
* addSoon(1, 1) map { sum => assert(sum === 2) }
* }
*
* test("This test should fail") {
* addSoon(1, 1) map { sum => assert(sum === 3) }
* }
* }
*
*
*
* Running this version of ExampleSuite in the interpreter in a directory with two files, hello.txt and world.txt
* would give the following output:
*
*
*
* scala> org.scalatest.run(new ExampleSuite)
* ExampleSuite:
* - this test should succeed
* Dir snapshot: hello.txt, world.txt
* - this test should fail *** FAILED ***
* 2 did not equal 3 (:33)
*
*
*
* Note that the NoArgAsyncTest passed to withFixture, in addition to
* an apply method that executes the test, also includes the test name and the config
* map passed to runTest. Thus you can also use the test name and configuration objects in your withFixture
* implementation.
*
*
*
* Lastly, if you want to transform the outcome in some way in withFixture, you'll need to use either the
* map or transform methods of Future, like this:
*
*
*
* // Your implementation
* override def withFixture(test: NoArgAsyncTest) = {
*
* // Perform setup here
*
* val futureOutcome = super.withFixture(test) // Invoke the test function
*
* futureOutcome change { outcome =>
* // transform the outcome into a new outcome here
* }
* }
*
*
*
* Note that a NoArgAsyncTest's apply method will return a scala.util.Failure only if
* the test completes abruptly with a "test-fatal" exception (such as OutOfMemoryError) that should
* cause the suite to abort rather than the test to fail. Thus usually you would use map
* to transform future outcomes, not transform, so that such test-fatal exceptions pass through
* unchanged. The suite will abort asynchronously with any exception returned from NoArgAsyncTest's
* apply method in a scala.util.Failure.
*
*
*
* Calling loan-fixture methods
*
*
* If you need to both pass a fixture object into a test and perform cleanup at the end of the test, you'll need to use the loan pattern.
* If different tests need different fixtures that require cleanup, you can implement the loan pattern directly by writing loan-fixture methods.
* A loan-fixture method takes a function whose body forms part or all of a test's code. It creates a fixture, passes it to the test code by invoking the
* function, then cleans up the fixture after the function returns.
*
*
*
* The following example shows three tests that use two fixtures, a database and a file. Both require cleanup after, so each is provided via a
* loan-fixture method. (In this example, the database is simulated with a StringBuffer.)
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.loanfixture
*
* import java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentHashMap
*
* import scala.concurrent.Future
* import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext
*
* object DbServer { // Simulating a database server
* type Db = StringBuffer
* private final val databases = new ConcurrentHashMap[String, Db]
* def createDb(name: String): Db = {
* val db = new StringBuffer // java.lang.StringBuffer is thread-safe
* databases.put(name, db)
* db
* }
* def removeDb(name: String): Unit = {
* databases.remove(name)
* }
* }
*
* // Defining actor messages
* sealed abstract class StringOp
* case object Clear extends StringOp
* case class Append(value: String) extends StringOp
* case object GetValue
*
* class StringActor { // Simulating an actor
* private final val sb = new StringBuilder
* def !(op: StringOp): Unit =
* synchronized {
* op match {
* case Append(value) => sb.append(value)
* case Clear => sb.clear()
* }
* }
* def ?(get: GetValue.type)(implicit c: ExecutionContext): Future[String] =
* Future {
* synchronized { sb.toString }
* }
* }
*
* import org.scalatest._
* import DbServer._
* import java.util.UUID.randomUUID
*
* class ExampleSuite extends funsuite.AsyncFunSuite {
*
* def withDatabase(testCode: Future[Db] => Future[Assertion]) = {
* val dbName = randomUUID.toString // generate a unique db name
* val futureDb = Future { createDb(dbName) } // create the fixture
* complete {
* val futurePopulatedDb =
* futureDb map { db =>
* db.append("ScalaTest is ") // perform setup
* }
* testCode(futurePopulatedDb) // "loan" the fixture to the test code
* } lastly {
* removeDb(dbName) // ensure the fixture will be cleaned up
* }
* }
*
* def withActor(testCode: StringActor => Future[Assertion]) = {
* val actor = new StringActor
* complete {
* actor ! Append("ScalaTest is ") // set up the fixture
* testCode(actor) // "loan" the fixture to the test code
* } lastly {
* actor ! Clear // ensure the fixture will be cleaned up
* }
* }
*
* // This test needs the actor fixture
* test("Testing should be productive") {
* withActor { actor =>
* actor ! Append("productive!")
* val futureString = actor ? GetValue
* futureString map { s =>
* assert(s === "ScalaTest is productive!")
* }
* }
* }
*
* // This test needs the database fixture
* test("Test code should be readable") {
* withDatabase { futureDb =>
* futureDb map { db =>
* db.append("readable!")
* assert(db.toString === "ScalaTest is readable!")
* }
* }
* }
*
* // This test needs both the actor and the database
* test("Test code should be clear and concise") {
* withDatabase { futureDb =>
* withActor { actor => // loan-fixture methods compose
* actor ! Append("concise!")
* val futureString = actor ? GetValue
* val futurePair: Future[(Db, String)] =
* futureDb zip futureString
* futurePair map { case (db, s) =>
* db.append("clear!")
* assert(db.toString === "ScalaTest is clear!")
* assert(s === "ScalaTest is concise!")
* }
* }
* }
* }
* }
*
*
*
* As demonstrated by the last test, loan-fixture methods compose. Not only do loan-fixture methods allow you to
* give each test the fixture it needs, they allow you to give a test multiple fixtures and clean everything up afterwards.
*
*
*
* Also demonstrated in this example is the technique of giving each test its own "fixture sandbox" to play in. When your fixtures
* involve external side-effects, like creating databases, it is a good idea to give each database a unique name as is
* done in this example. This keeps tests completely isolated, allowing you to run them in parallel if desired.
*
*
*
* Overriding withFixture(OneArgTest)
*
*
* If all or most tests need the same fixture, you can avoid some of the boilerplate of the loan-fixture method approach by using a
* FixtureAsyncTestSuite and overriding withFixture(OneArgAsyncTest).
* Each test in a FixtureAsyncTestSuite takes a fixture as a parameter, allowing you to pass the fixture into
* the test. You must indicate the type of the fixture parameter by specifying FixtureParam, and implement a
* withFixture method that takes a OneArgAsyncTest. This withFixture method is responsible for
* invoking the one-arg async test function, so you can perform fixture set up before invoking and passing
* the fixture into the test function, and ensure clean up is performed after the test completes.
*
*
*
* To enable the stacking of traits that define withFixture(NoArgAsyncTest), it is a good idea to let
* withFixture(NoArgAsyncTest) invoke the test function instead of invoking the test
* function directly. To do so, you'll need to convert the OneArgAsyncTest to a NoArgAsyncTest. You can do that by passing
* the fixture object to the toNoArgAsyncTest method of OneArgAsyncTest. In other words, instead of
* writing “test(theFixture)”, you'd delegate responsibility for
* invoking the test function to the withFixture(NoArgAsyncTest) method of the same instance by writing:
*
*
*
* withFixture(test.toNoArgAsyncTest(theFixture))
*
*
*
* Here's a complete example:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.oneargasynctest
*
* import org.scalatest._
* import java.io._
* import scala.concurrent.Future
* import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext
*
* // Defining actor messages
* sealed abstract class StringOp
* case object Clear extends StringOp
* case class Append(value: String) extends StringOp
* case object GetValue
*
* class StringActor { // Simulating an actor
* private final val sb = new StringBuilder
* def !(op: StringOp): Unit =
* synchronized {
* op match {
* case Append(value) => sb.append(value)
* case Clear => sb.clear()
* }
* }
* def ?(get: GetValue.type)(implicit c: ExecutionContext): Future[String] =
* Future {
* synchronized { sb.toString }
* }
* }
*
* class ExampleSuite extends funsuite.FixtureAsyncFunSuite {
*
* type FixtureParam = StringActor
*
* def withFixture(test: OneArgAsyncTest): FutureOutcome = {
*
* val actor = new StringActor
* complete {
* actor ! Append("ScalaTest is ") // set up the fixture
* withFixture(test.toNoArgAsyncTest(actor))
* } lastly {
* actor ! Clear // ensure the fixture will be cleaned up
* }
* }
*
* test("Testing should be easy") { actor =>
* actor ! Append("easy!")
* val futureString = actor ? GetValue
* futureString map { s =>
* assert(s === "ScalaTest is easy!")
* }
* }
*
* test("Testing should be fun") { actor =>
* actor ! Append("fun!")
* val futureString = actor ? GetValue
* futureString map { s =>
* assert(s === "ScalaTest is fun!")
* }
* }
* }
*
*
*
* In this example, the tests required one fixture object, a StringActor. If your tests need multiple fixture objects, you can
* simply define the FixtureParam type to be a tuple containing the objects or, alternatively, a case class containing
* the objects. For more information on the withFixture(OneArgAsyncTest) technique, see
* the documentation for FixtureAsyncFunSuite.
*
*
*
* Mixing in BeforeAndAfter
*
*
* In all the shared fixture examples shown so far, the activities of creating, setting up, and cleaning up the fixture objects have been
* performed during the test. This means that if an exception occurs during any of these activities, it will be reported as a test failure.
* Sometimes, however, you may want setup to happen before the test starts, and cleanup after the test has completed, so that if an
* exception occurs during setup or cleanup, the entire suite aborts and no more tests are attempted. The simplest way to accomplish this in ScalaTest is
* to mix in trait BeforeAndAfter. With this trait you can denote a bit of code to run before each test
* with before and/or after each test each test with after, like this:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.beforeandafter
*
* import org.scalatest.funsuite.AsyncFunSuite
* import org.scalatest.BeforeAndAfter
* import collection.mutable.ListBuffer
* import scala.concurrent.Future
* import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext
*
* // Defining actor messages
* sealed abstract class StringOp
* case object Clear extends StringOp
* case class Append(value: String) extends StringOp
* case object GetValue
*
* class StringActor { // Simulating an actor
* private final val sb = new StringBuilder
* def !(op: StringOp): Unit =
* synchronized {
* op match {
* case Append(value) => sb.append(value)
* case Clear => sb.clear()
* }
* }
* def ?(get: GetValue.type)(implicit c: ExecutionContext): Future[String] =
* Future {
* synchronized { sb.toString }
* }
* }
*
* class ExampleSuite extends AsyncFunSuite with BeforeAndAfter {
*
* final val actor = new StringActor
*
* before {
* actor ! Append("ScalaTest is ") // set up the fixture
* }
*
* after {
* actor ! Clear // clean up the fixture
* }
*
* test("testing should be easy") {
* actor ! Append("easy!")
* val futureString = actor ? GetValue
* futureString map { s =>
* assert(s === "ScalaTest is easy!")
* }
* }
*
* test("testing should be fun") {
* actor ! Append("fun!")
* val futureString = actor ? GetValue
* futureString map { s =>
* assert(s === "ScalaTest is fun!")
* }
* }
* }
*
*
*
* Note that the only way before and after code can communicate with test code is via some
* side-effecting mechanism, commonly by reassigning instance vars or by changing the state of mutable
* objects held from instance vals (as in this example). If using instance vars or
* mutable objects held from instance vals you wouldn't be able to run tests in parallel in the same instance
* of the test class (on the JVM, not Scala.js) unless you synchronized access to the shared, mutable state.
*
*
*
* Note that on the JVM, if you override ScalaTest's default
* serial execution context, you will likely need to
* worry about synchronizing access to shared mutable fixture state, because the execution
* context may assign different threads to process
* different Future transformations. Although access to mutable state along
* the same linear chain of Future transformations need not be synchronized,
* it can be difficult to spot cases where these constraints are violated. The best approach
* is to use only immutable objects when transforming Futures. When that's not
* practical, involve only thread-safe mutable objects, as is done in the above example.
* On Scala.js, by contrast, you need not worry about thread synchronization, because
* in effect only one thread exists.
*
*
*
* Although BeforeAndAfter provides a minimal-boilerplate way to execute code before and after tests, it isn't designed to enable stackable
* traits, because the order of execution would be non-obvious. If you want to factor out before and after code that is common to multiple test suites, you
* should use trait BeforeAndAfterEach instead, as shown later in the next section,
* composing fixtures by stacking traits.
*
*
* Composing fixtures by stacking traits
*
*
* In larger projects, teams often end up with several different fixtures that test classes need in different combinations,
* and possibly initialized (and cleaned up) in different orders. A good way to accomplish this in ScalaTest is to factor the individual
* fixtures into traits that can be composed using the stackable trait pattern. This can be done, for example, by placing
* withFixture methods in several traits, each of which call super.withFixture. Here's an example in
* which the StringBuilderActor and StringBufferActor fixtures used in the previous examples have been
* factored out into two stackable fixture traits named Builder and Buffer:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.composingwithasyncfixture
*
* import org.scalatest._
* import org.scalatest.SuiteMixin
* import collection.mutable.ListBuffer
* import scala.concurrent.Future
* import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext
*
* // Defining actor messages
* sealed abstract class StringOp
* case object Clear extends StringOp
* case class Append(value: String) extends StringOp
* case object GetValue
*
* class StringBuilderActor { // Simulating an actor
* private final val sb = new StringBuilder
* def !(op: StringOp): Unit =
* synchronized {
* op match {
* case Append(value) => sb.append(value)
* case Clear => sb.clear()
* }
* }
* def ?(get: GetValue.type)(implicit c: ExecutionContext): Future[String] =
* Future {
* synchronized { sb.toString }
* }
* }
*
* class StringBufferActor {
* private final val buf = ListBuffer.empty[String]
* def !(op: StringOp): Unit =
* synchronized {
* op match {
* case Append(value) => buf += value
* case Clear => buf.clear()
* }
* }
* def ?(get: GetValue.type)(implicit c: ExecutionContext): Future[List[String]] =
* Future {
* synchronized { buf.toList }
* }
* }
*
* trait Builder extends AsyncTestSuiteMixin { this: AsyncTestSuite =>
*
* final val builderActor = new StringBuilderActor
*
* abstract override def withFixture(test: NoArgAsyncTest) = {
* builderActor ! Append("ScalaTest is ")
* complete {
* super.withFixture(test) // To be stackable, must call super.withFixture
* } lastly {
* builderActor ! Clear
* }
* }
* }
*
* trait Buffer extends AsyncTestSuiteMixin { this: AsyncTestSuite =>
*
* final val bufferActor = new StringBufferActor
*
* abstract override def withFixture(test: NoArgAsyncTest) = {
* complete {
* super.withFixture(test) // To be stackable, must call super.withFixture
* } lastly {
* bufferActor ! Clear
* }
* }
* }
*
* class ExampleSuite extends funsuite.AsyncFunSuite with Builder with Buffer {
*
* test("Testing should be easy") {
* builderActor ! Append("easy!")
* val futureString = builderActor ? GetValue
* val futureList = bufferActor ? GetValue
* val futurePair: Future[(String, List[String])] = futureString zip futureList
* futurePair map { case (str, lst) =>
* assert(str === "ScalaTest is easy!")
* assert(lst.isEmpty)
* bufferActor ! Append("sweet")
* succeed
* }
* }
*
* test("Testing should be fun") {
* builderActor ! Append("fun!")
* val futureString = builderActor ? GetValue
* val futureList = bufferActor ? GetValue
* val futurePair: Future[(String, List[String])] = futureString zip futureList
* futurePair map { case (str, lst) =>
* assert(str === "ScalaTest is fun!")
* assert(lst.isEmpty)
* bufferActor ! Append("awesome")
* succeed
* }
* }
* }
*
*
*
* By mixing in both the Builder and Buffer traits, ExampleSuite gets both fixtures, which will be
* initialized before each test and cleaned up after. The order the traits are mixed together determines the order of execution.
* In this case, Builder is “super” to Buffer. If you wanted Buffer to be “super”
* to Builder, you need only switch the order you mix them together, like this:
*
*
*
* class Example2Suite extends funsuite.AsyncFunSuite with Buffer with Builder
*
*
*
* If you only need one fixture you mix in only that trait:
*
*
*
* class Example3Suite extends funsuite.AsyncFunSuite with Builder
*
*
*
* Another way to create stackable fixture traits is by extending the BeforeAndAfterEach
* and/or BeforeAndAfterAll traits.
* BeforeAndAfterEach has a beforeEach method that will be run before each test (like JUnit's setUp),
* and an afterEach method that will be run after (like JUnit's tearDown).
* Similarly, BeforeAndAfterAll has a beforeAll method that will be run before all tests,
* and an afterAll method that will be run after all tests. Here's what the previously shown example would look like if it
* were rewritten to use the BeforeAndAfterEach methods instead of withFixture:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.composingbeforeandaftereach
*
* import org.scalatest._
* import org.scalatest.BeforeAndAfterEach
* import collection.mutable.ListBuffer
* import scala.concurrent.Future
* import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext
*
* // Defining actor messages
* sealed abstract class StringOp
* case object Clear extends StringOp
* case class Append(value: String) extends StringOp
* case object GetValue
*
* class StringBuilderActor { // Simulating an actor
* private final val sb = new StringBuilder
* def !(op: StringOp): Unit =
* synchronized {
* op match {
* case Append(value) => sb.append(value)
* case Clear => sb.clear()
* }
* }
* def ?(get: GetValue.type)(implicit c: ExecutionContext): Future[String] =
* Future {
* synchronized { sb.toString }
* }
* }
*
* class StringBufferActor {
* private final val buf = ListBuffer.empty[String]
* def !(op: StringOp): Unit =
* synchronized {
* op match {
* case Append(value) => buf += value
* case Clear => buf.clear()
* }
* }
* def ?(get: GetValue.type)(implicit c: ExecutionContext): Future[List[String]] =
* Future {
* synchronized { buf.toList }
* }
* }
*
* trait Builder extends BeforeAndAfterEach { this: Suite =>
*
* final val builderActor = new StringBuilderActor
*
* override def beforeEach() {
* builderActor ! Append("ScalaTest is ")
* super.beforeEach() // To be stackable, must call super.beforeEach
* }
*
* override def afterEach() {
* try super.afterEach() // To be stackable, must call super.afterEach
* finally builderActor ! Clear
* }
* }
*
* trait Buffer extends BeforeAndAfterEach { this: Suite =>
*
* final val bufferActor = new StringBufferActor
*
* override def afterEach() {
* try super.afterEach() // To be stackable, must call super.afterEach
* finally bufferActor ! Clear
* }
* }
*
* class ExampleSuite extends funsuite.AsyncFunSuite with Builder with Buffer {
*
* test("Testing should be easy") {
* builderActor ! Append("easy!")
* val futureString = builderActor ? GetValue
* val futureList = bufferActor ? GetValue
* val futurePair: Future[(String, List[String])] = futureString zip futureList
* futurePair map { case (str, lst) =>
* assert(str === "ScalaTest is easy!")
* assert(lst.isEmpty)
* bufferActor ! Append("sweet")
* succeed
* }
* }
*
* test("Testing should be fun") {
* builderActor ! Append("fun!")
* val futureString = builderActor ? GetValue
* val futureList = bufferActor ? GetValue
* val futurePair: Future[(String, List[String])] = futureString zip futureList
* futurePair map { case (str, lst) =>
* assert(str === "ScalaTest is fun!")
* assert(lst.isEmpty)
* bufferActor ! Append("awesome")
* succeed
* }
* }
* }
*
*
*
* To get the same ordering as withFixture, place your super.beforeEach call at the end of each
* beforeEach method, and the super.afterEach call at the beginning of each afterEach
* method, as shown in the previous example. It is a good idea to invoke super.afterEach in a try
* block and perform cleanup in a finally clause, as shown in the previous example, because this ensures the
* cleanup code is performed even if super.afterEach throws an exception.
*
*
*
* The difference between stacking traits that extend BeforeAndAfterEach versus traits that implement withFixture is
* that setup and cleanup code happens before and after the test in BeforeAndAfterEach, but at the beginning and
* end of the test in withFixture. Thus if a withFixture method completes abruptly with an exception, it is
* considered a failed test. By contrast, if any of the beforeEach or afterEach methods of BeforeAndAfterEach
* complete abruptly, it is considered an aborted suite, which will result in a SuiteAborted event.
*
*
* Shared tests
*
*
* Sometimes you may want to run the same test code on different fixture objects. In other words, you may want to write tests that are "shared"
* by different fixture objects.
* To accomplish this in an AsyncFunSuite, you first place shared tests in
* behavior functions. These behavior functions will be
* invoked during the construction phase of any AsyncFunSuite that uses them, so that the tests they contain will
* be registered as tests in that AsyncFunSuite.
* For example, given this StackActor class:
*
*
*
* package org.scalatest.examples.asyncfunsuite.sharedtests
*
* import scala.collection.mutable.ListBuffer
* import scala.concurrent.Future
* import scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext
*
* // Stack operations
* case class Push[T](value: T)
* sealed abstract class StackOp
* case object Pop extends StackOp
* case object Peek extends StackOp
* case object Size extends StackOp
*
* // Stack info
* case class StackInfo[T](top: Option[T], size: Int, max: Int) {
* require(size >= 0, "size was less than zero")
* require(max >= size, "max was less than size")
* val isFull: Boolean = size == max
* val isEmpty: Boolean = size == 0
* }
*
* class StackActor[T](Max: Int, name: String) {
*
* private final val buf = new ListBuffer[T]
*
* def !(push: Push[T]): Unit =
* synchronized {
* if (buf.size != Max)
* buf.prepend(push.value)
* else
* throw new IllegalStateException("can't push onto a full stack")
* }
*
* def ?(op: StackOp)(implicit c: ExecutionContext): Future[StackInfo[T]] =
* synchronized {
* op match {
* case Pop =>
* if (buf.size != 0)
* Future { StackInfo(Some(buf.remove(0)), buf.size, Max) }
* else
* throw new IllegalStateException("can't pop an empty stack")
* case Peek =>
* if (buf.size != 0)
* Future { StackInfo(Some(buf(0)), buf.size, Max) }
* else
* throw new IllegalStateException("can't peek an empty stack")
* case Size =>
* Future { StackInfo(None, buf.size, Max) }
* }
* }
*
* override def toString: String = name
* }
*
*
*
* You may want to test the stack represented by the StackActor class in different states: empty, full, with one item, with one item less than capacity,
* etc. You may find you have several tests that make sense any time the stack is non-empty. Thus you'd ideally want to run
* those same tests for three stack fixture objects: a full stack, a stack with a one item, and a stack with one item less than
* capacity. With shared tests, you can factor these tests out into a behavior function, into which you pass the
* stack fixture to use when running the tests. So in your AsyncFunSuite for StackActor, you'd invoke the
* behavior function three times, passing in each of the three stack fixtures so that the shared tests are run for all three fixtures.
*
*
*
* You can define a behavior function that encapsulates these shared tests inside the AsyncFunSuite that uses them. If they are shared
* between different AsyncFunSuites, however, you could also define them in a separate trait that is mixed into
* each AsyncFunSuite that uses them.
* For example, here the nonEmptyStackActor behavior function (in this case, a
* behavior method) is defined in a trait along with another
* method containing shared tests for non-full stacks:
*
*
*
* import org.scalatest.funsuite.AsyncFunSuite
*
* trait AsyncFunSuiteStackBehaviors { this: AsyncFunSuite =>
*
* def nonEmptyStackActor(createNonEmptyStackActor: => StackActor[Int],
* lastItemAdded: Int, name: String): Unit = {
*
* test("Size is fired at non-empty stack actor: " + name) {
* val stackActor = createNonEmptyStackActor
* val futureStackInfo = stackActor ? Size
* futureStackInfo map { stackInfo =>
* assert(!stackInfo.isEmpty)
* }
* }
*
* test("Peek is fired at non-empty stack actor: " + name) {
* val stackActor = createNonEmptyStackActor
* val futurePair: Future[(StackInfo[Int], StackInfo[Int])] =
* for {
* beforePeek <- stackActor ? Size
* afterPeek <- stackActor ? Peek
* } yield (beforePeek, afterPeek)
* futurePair map { case (beforePeek, afterPeek) =>
* assert(afterPeek.top === Some(lastItemAdded))
* assert(afterPeek.size === beforePeek.size)
* }
* }
*
* test("Pop is fired at non-empty stack actor: " + name) {
* val stackActor = createNonEmptyStackActor
* val futurePair: Future[(StackInfo[Int], StackInfo[Int])] =
* for {
* beforePop <- stackActor ? Size
* afterPop <- stackActor ? Pop
* } yield (beforePop, afterPop)
* futurePair map { case (beforePop, afterPop) =>
* assert(afterPop.top === Some(lastItemAdded))
* assert(afterPop.size === beforePop.size - 1)
* }
* }
* }
*
* def nonFullStackActor(createNonFullStackActor: => StackActor[Int], name: String): Unit = {
*
* test("non-full stack actor is not full: " + name) {
* val stackActor = createNonFullStackActor
* val futureStackInfo = stackActor ? Size
* futureStackInfo map { stackInfo =>
* assert(!stackInfo.isFull)
* }
* }
*
* test("Push is fired at non-full stack actor: " + name) {
* val stackActor = createNonFullStackActor
* val futurePair: Future[(StackInfo[Int], StackInfo[Int])] =
* for {
* beforePush <- stackActor ? Size
* afterPush <- { stackActor ! Push(7); stackActor ? Peek }
* } yield (beforePush, afterPush)
* futurePair map { case (beforePush, afterPush) =>
* assert(afterPush.top === Some(7))
* assert(afterPush.size === beforePush.size + 1)
* }
* }
* }
* }
*
*
*
* Given these behavior functions, you could invoke them directly, but AsyncFunSuite offers a DSL for the purpose,
* which looks like this:
*
*
*
* testsFor(nonEmptyStackActor(almostEmptyStackActor, LastValuePushed, almostEmptyStackActorName))
* testsFor(nonFullStackActor(almostEmptyStackActor, almostEmptyStackActorName))
*
*
*
* Here's an example:
*
*
*
* class StackSuite extends AsyncFunSuite with AsyncFunSuiteStackBehaviors {
*
* val Max = 10
* val LastValuePushed = Max - 1
*
* // Stack fixture creation methods
* val emptyStackActorName = "empty stack actor"
* def emptyStackActor = new StackActor[Int](Max, emptyStackActorName )
*
* val fullStackActorName = "full stack actor"
* def fullStackActor = {
* val stackActor = new StackActor[Int](Max, fullStackActorName )
* for (i <- 0 until Max)
* stackActor ! Push(i)
* stackActor
* }
*
* val almostEmptyStackActorName = "almost empty stack actor"
* def almostEmptyStackActor = {
* val stackActor = new StackActor[Int](Max, almostEmptyStackActorName )
* stackActor ! Push(LastValuePushed)
* stackActor
* }
*
* val almostFullStackActorName = "almost full stack actor"
* def almostFullStackActor = {
* val stackActor = new StackActor[Int](Max, almostFullStackActorName)
* for (i <- 1 to LastValuePushed)
* stackActor ! Push(i)
* stackActor
* }
*
* test("an empty stack actor is empty") {
* val stackActor = emptyStackActor
* val futureStackInfo = stackActor ? Size
* futureStackInfo map { stackInfo =>
* assert(stackInfo.isEmpty)
* }
* }
*
* test("Peek is fired at an empty stack actor") {
* recoverToSucceededIf[IllegalStateException] {
* emptyStackActor ? Peek
* }
* }
*
* test("Pop is fired at an empty stack actor") {
* recoverToSucceededIf[IllegalStateException] {
* emptyStackActor ? Pop
* }
* }
*
* testsFor(nonEmptyStackActor(almostEmptyStackActor, LastValuePushed, almostEmptyStackActorName))
* testsFor(nonFullStackActor(almostEmptyStackActor, almostEmptyStackActorName))
*
* testsFor(nonEmptyStackActor(almostFullStackActor, LastValuePushed, almostFullStackActorName))
* testsFor(nonFullStackActor(almostFullStackActor, almostFullStackActorName))
*
* test("a full stack actor is full") {
* val stackActor = fullStackActor
* val futureStackInfo = stackActor ? Size
* futureStackInfo map { stackInfo =>
* assert(stackInfo.isFull)
* }
* }
*
* testsFor(nonEmptyStackActor(fullStackActor, LastValuePushed, fullStackActorName))
*
* test("Push is fired at a full stack actor") {
* val stackActor = fullStackActor
* assertThrows[IllegalStateException] {
* stackActor ! Push(10)
* }
* }
* }
*
*
*
* If you load these classes into the Scala interpreter (with scalatest's JAR file on the class path), and execute it,
* you'll see:
*
*
*
* scala> org.scalatest.run(new StackSuite)
* StackSuite:
* StackSuite:
* - an empty stack actor is empty
* - Peek is fired at an empty stack actor
* - Pop is fired at an empty stack actor
* - Size is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost empty stack actor
* - Peek is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost empty stack actor
* - Pop is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost empty stack actor
* - non-full stack actor is not full: almost empty stack actor
* - Push is fired at non-full stack actor: almost empty stack actor
* - Size is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost full stack actor
* - Peek is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost full stack actor
* - Pop is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost full stack actor
* - non-full stack actor is not full: almost full stack actor
* - Push is fired at non-full stack actor: almost full stack actor
* - a full stack actor is full
* - Size is fired at non-empty stack actor: full stack actor
* - Peek is fired at non-empty stack actor: full stack actor
* - Pop is fired at non-empty stack actor: full stack actor
* - Push is fired at a full stack actor
*
*
*
* One thing to keep in mind when using shared tests is that in ScalaTest, each test in a suite must have a unique name.
* If you register the same tests repeatedly in the same suite, one problem you may encounter is an exception at runtime
* complaining that multiple tests are being registered with the same test name.
* In a AsyncFunSuite there is no nesting construct analogous to
* AsyncFunSpec's describe clause.
* Therefore, you need to do a bit of
* extra work to ensure that the test names are unique. If a duplicate test name problem shows up in an
* AsyncFunSuite, you'll need to pass in a prefix or suffix string to add to each test name. You can call
* toString on the shared fixture object, or pass this string
* the same way you pass any other data needed by the shared tests.
* This is the approach taken by the previous AsyncFunSuiteStackBehaviors example.
*
*
*
* Given this AsyncFunSuiteStackBehaviors trait, calling it with the stackWithOneItem fixture, like this:
*
*
*
* testsFor(nonEmptyStackActor(almostFullStackActor, LastValuePushed, almostFullStackActorName))
*
*
*
* yields test names:
*
*
*
* Size is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost empty stack actorPeek is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost empty stack actorPop is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost empty stack actor
*
*
* Whereas calling it with the stackWithOneItemLessThanCapacity fixture, like this:
*
*
*
* testsFor(nonEmptyStack(stackWithOneItemLessThanCapacity, lastValuePushed))
*
*
*
* yields different test names:
*
*
*
* Size is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost full stack actorPeek is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost full stack actorPop is fired at non-empty stack actor: almost full stack actor
