/**
* Trait that contains several “check” methods that perform ScalaCheck property checks.
* If ScalaCheck finds a test case for which a property doesn't hold, the problem will be reported as a ScalaTest test failure.
*
*
* To use ScalaCheck, you specify properties and, in some cases, generators that generate test data. You need not always
* create generators, because ScalaCheck provides many default generators for you that can be used in many situations.
* ScalaCheck will use the generators to generate test data and with that data run tests that check that the property holds.
* Property-based tests can, therefore, give you a lot more testing for a lot less code than assertion-based tests.
* Here's an example of using ScalaCheck from a JUnitSuite
:
*
*
* import org.scalatest.junit.JUnitSuite
* import org.scalatest.prop.Checkers
* import org.scalacheck.Arbitrary._
* import org.scalacheck.Prop._
*
* class MySuite extends JUnitSuite with Checkers {
* @Test
* def testConcat() {
* check((a: List[Int], b: List[Int]) => a.size + b.size == (a ::: b).size)
* }
* }
*
*
* The check
method, defined in Checkers
, makes it easy to write property-based tests inside
* ScalaTest, JUnit, and TestNG test suites. This example specifies a property that List
's :::
method
* should obey. ScalaCheck properties are expressed as function values that take the required
* test data as parameters. ScalaCheck will generate test data using generators and
repeatedly pass generated data to the function. In this case, the test data is composed of integer lists named a
and b
.
* Inside the body of the function, you see:
*
*
* a.size + b.size == (a ::: b).size
*
*
* The property in this case is a Boolean
expression that will yield true if the size of the concatenated list is equal
* to the size of each individual list added together. With this small amount
* of code, ScalaCheck will generate possibly hundreds of value pairs for a
and b
and test each pair, looking for
* a pair of integers for which the property doesn't hold. If the property holds true for every value ScalaCheck tries,
* check
returns normally. Otherwise, check
will complete abruptly with a TestFailedException
that
* contains information about the failure, including the values that cause the property to be false.
*
*
*
* For more information on using ScalaCheck properties, see the documentation for ScalaCheck, which is available
* from http://code.google.com/p/scalacheck/.
*
*
*
* To execute a suite that mixes in Checkers
with ScalaTest's Runner
, you must include ScalaCheck's jar file on the class path or runpath.
*
*
* Property check configuration
*
*
* The property checks performed by the check
methods of this trait can be flexibly configured via the services
* provided by supertrait Configuration
. The five configuration parameters for property checks along with their
* default values and meanings are described in the following table:
*
*
*
*
*
* Configuration Parameter
*
*
* Default Value
*
*
* Meaning
*
*
*
*
* minSuccessful
*
*
* 100
*
*
* the minimum number of successful property evaluations required for the property to pass
*
*
*
*
* maxDiscarded
*
*
* 500
*
*
* the maximum number of discarded property evaluations allowed during a property check
*
*
*
*
* minSize
*
*
* 0
*
*
* the minimum size parameter to provide to ScalaCheck, which it will use when generating objects for which size matters (such as strings or lists)
*
*
*
*
* maxSize
*
*
* 100
*
*
* the maximum size parameter to provide to ScalaCheck, which it will use when generating objects for which size matters (such as strings or lists)
*
*
*
*
* workers
*
*
* 1
*
*
* specifies the number of worker threads to use during property evaluation
*
*
*
*
*
* The check
methods of trait Checkers
each take a PropertyCheckConfiguration
* object as an implicit parameter. This object provides values for each of the five configuration parameters. Trait Configuration
* provides an implicit val
named generatorDrivenConfig
with each configuration parameter set to its default value.
* If you want to set one or more configuration parameters to a different value for all property checks in a suite you can override this
* val (or hide it, for example, if you are importing the members of the Checkers
companion object rather
* than mixing in the trait.) For example, if
* you want all parameters at their defaults except for minSize
and maxSize
, you can override
* generatorDrivenConfig
, like this:
*
*
* implicit override val generatorDrivenConfig =
* PropertyCheckConfiguration(minSize = 10, sizeRange = 10)
*
*
*
* Or, if hide it by declaring a variable of the same name in whatever scope you want the changed values to be in effect:
*
*
*
* implicit val generatorDrivenConfig =
* PropertyCheckConfiguration(minSize = 10, sizeRange = 10)
*
*
*
* In addition to taking a PropertyCheckConfiguration
object as an implicit parameter, the check
methods of trait
* Checkers
also take a variable length argument list of PropertyCheckConfigParam
* objects that you can use to override the values provided by the implicit PropertyCheckConfiguration
for a single check
* invocation. You place these configuration settings after the property or property function, For example, if you want to
* set minSuccessful
to 500 for just one particular check
invocation,
* you can do so like this:
*
*
*
* check((n: Int) => n + 0 == n, minSuccessful(500))
*
*
*
* This invocation of check
will use 500 for minSuccessful
and whatever values are specified by the
* implicitly passed PropertyCheckConfiguration
object for the other configuration parameters.
* If you want to set multiple configuration parameters in this way, just list them separated by commas:
*
*
*
* check((n: Int) => n + 0 == n, minSuccessful(500), maxDiscardedFactor(0.6))
*
*
*
* The previous configuration approach works the same in Checkers
as it does in GeneratorDrivenPropertyChecks
.
* Trait Checkers
also provides one check
method that takes an org.scalacheck.Test.Parameters
object,
* in case you want to configure ScalaCheck that way.
*
*
*
* import org.scalacheck.Prop
* import org.scalacheck.Test.Parameters
* import org.scalatest.prop.Checkers._
*
* check(Prop.forAll((n: Int) => n + 0 == n), Parameters.Default { override val minSuccessfulTests = 5 })
*
*
*
* For more information, see the documentation
* for supertrait Configuration
.

/*
* Returns a ScalaCheck Prop
that succeeds if the passed by-name
* parameter, fun
, returns normally; fails if it throws
* an exception.
*
*
* This method enables ScalaTest assertions and matcher expressions to be used
* in property checks. Here's an example:
*
*
*
* check((s: String, t: String) => successOf(s + t should endWith (s)))
*
*
*
* The detail message of the TestFailedException
that will likely
* be thrown by the matcher expression will be added as a label to the ScalaCheck
* Prop
returned by successOf
. This, this property
* check might fail with an exception like:
*
*
*
* org.scalatest.prop.GeneratorDrivenPropertyCheckFailedException: TestFailedException (included as this exception's cause) was thrown during property evaluation.
* Label of failing property: "ab" did not end with substring "a" (script.scala:24)
* > arg0 = "?" (1 shrinks)
* > arg1 = "?" (1 shrinks)
* at org.scalatest.prop.Checkers$class.check(Checkers.scala:252)
* at org.scalatest.prop.Checkers$.check(Checkers.scala:354)
* ...
*
*
*
* One use case for using matcher expressions in your properties is to
* get helpful error messages without using ScalaCheck labels. For example,
* instead of:
*
*
*
* val complexProp = forAll { (m: Int, n: Int) =>
* val res = n * m
* (res >= m) :| "result > #1" &&
* (res >= n) :| "result > #2" &&
* (res < m + n) :| "result not sum"
* }
*
*
*
* You could write:
*
*
*
* val complexProp = forAll { (m: Int, n: Int) =>
* successOf {
* val res = n * m
* res should be >= m
* res should be >= n
* res should be < (m + n)
* }
*
*
* @param fun the expression to evaluate to determine what Prop
* to return
* @return a ScalaCheck property that passes if the passed by-name parameter,
* fun
