Class Method Details

.add_setup_hook(arg = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Adds a block of code that will be executed before every TestCase is run. Equivalent to setup, but usable multiple times and without re-opening any classes.

All of the setup hooks will run in order after the setup method, if one is defined.

The argument can be any object that responds to #call or a block. That means that this call,

MiniTest::Unit::TestCase.add_setup_hook { puts "foo" }

… is equivalent to:

module MyTestSetup
  def self.call
    puts "foo"
  end
end

MiniTest::Unit::TestCase.add_setup_hook MyTestSetup

The blocks passed to add_setup_hook take an optional parameter that will be the TestCase instance that is executing the block.

  @setup_hooks << hook
end

.add_teardown_hook(arg = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Adds a block of code that will be executed after every TestCase is run. Equivalent to teardown, but usable multiple times and without re-opening any classes.

All of the teardown hooks will run in reverse order after the teardown method, if one is defined.

The argument can be any object that responds to #call or a block. That means that this call,

MiniTest::Unit::TestCase.add_teardown_hook { puts "foo" }

… is equivalent to:

module MyTestTeardown
  def self.call
    puts "foo"
  end
end

MiniTest::Unit::TestCase.add_teardown_hook MyTestTeardown

The blocks passed to add_teardown_hook take an optional parameter that will be the TestCase instance that is executing the block.

.bench_exp(min, max, base = 10) ⇒ Object

  (min..max).map { |m| base ** m }.to_a
end

.bench_linear(min, max, step = 10) ⇒ Object

end

.bench_rangeObject

#assert_performance(validation, &work) ⇒ Object

Runs the given work, gathering the times of each run. Range and times are then passed to a given validation proc. Outputs the benchmark name and times in tab-separated format, making it easy to paste into a spreadsheet for graphing or further analysis.

Ranges are specified by ::bench_range.

Eg:

def bench_algorithm
  validation = proc { |x, y| ... }
  assert_performance validation do |n|
    @obj.algorithm(n)

    t = Time.now - t0

    io.print "\t%9.6f" % t
    times << t
  end
  io.puts

  validation[range, times]
end

#assert_performance_constant(threshold = 0.99, &work) ⇒ Object

Runs the given work and asserts that the times gathered fit to match a constant rate (eg, linear slope == 0) within a given threshold. Note: because we’re testing for a slope of 0, R^2 is not a good determining factor for the fit, so the threshold is applied against the slope itself. As such, you probably want to tighten it from the default.

See www.graphpad.com/curvefit/goodness_of_fit.htm for more details.

Fit is calculated by #fit_linear.

Ranges are specified by ::bench_range.

Eg:

def bench_algorithm
  assert_performance_constant 0.9999 do |n|
    @obj.algorithm(n)

#assert_performance_exponential(threshold = 0.99, &work) ⇒ Object

  assert_performance_linear 0.9999 do |n|
