/**
* The Theories runner allows to test a certain functionality against a subset of an infinite set of data points.
*
* A Theory is a piece of functionality (a method) that is executed against several data inputs called data points.
* To make a test method a theory you mark it with @Theory. To create a data point you create a public
* field in your test class and mark it with @DataPoint. The Theories runner then executes your test
* method as many times as the number of data points declared, providing a different data point as
* the input argument on each invocation.
*
*
* A Theory differs from standard test method in that it captures some aspect of the intended behavior in possibly
* infinite numbers of scenarios which corresponds to the number of data points declared. Using assumptions and
* assertions properly together with covering multiple scenarios with different data points can make your tests more
* flexible and bring them closer to scientific theories (hence the name).
*
*
* For example:
*
*
* @RunWith(Theories.class)
* public class UserTest {
* @DataPoint
* public static String GOOD_USERNAME = "optimus";
* @DataPoint
* public static String USERNAME_WITH_SLASH = "optimus/prime";
*
* @Theory
* public void filenameIncludesUsername(String username) {
* assumeThat(username, not(containsString("/")));
* assertThat(new User(username).configFileName(), containsString(username));
* }
* }
*
* This makes it clear that the user's filename should be included in the config file name,
* only if it doesn't contain a slash. Another test or theory might define what happens when a username does contain
* a slash. UserTest
will attempt to run filenameIncludesUsername
on every compatible data
* point defined in the class. If any of the assumptions fail, the data point is silently ignored. If all of the
* assumptions pass, but an assertion fails, the test fails.
*
* Defining general statements as theories allows data point reuse across a bunch of functionality tests and also
* allows automated tools to search for new, unexpected data points that expose bugs.
*
*
* The support for Theories has been absorbed from the Popper project, and more complete documentation can be found
* from that projects archived documentation.
*
*
* @see Archived Popper project documentation
* @see Paper on Theories
