TYPES =

Contains pairs of matchers and Spec classes to be used to calculate the superclass of a top-level describe. This allows for automatically customizable spec types.

Class Method Details

.after(type = :each, &block) ⇒ Object

Define an ‘after’ action. Inherits the way normal methods should.

NOTE: type is ignored and is only there to make porting easier.

Equivalent to MiniTest::Unit::TestCase#teardown.

  add_teardown_hook {|tc| tc.instance_eval(&block) }
end

.before(type = :each, &block) ⇒ Object

Define a ‘before’ action. Inherits the way normal methods should.

NOTE: type is ignored and is only there to make porting easier.

Equivalent to MiniTest::Unit::TestCase#setup.

  add_setup_hook {|tc| tc.instance_eval(&block) }
end

.bench(name, &block) ⇒ Object

This is used to define a new benchmark method. You usually don’t use this directly and is intended for those needing to write new performance curve fits (eg: you need a specific polynomial fit).

See ::bench_performance_linear for an example of how to use this.

.bench_performance_constant(name, threshold = 0.99, &work) ⇒ Object

Create a benchmark that verifies that the performance is constant.

describe "my class" do
  bench_performance_constant "zoom_algorithm!" do |n|
    @obj.zoom_algorithm!(n)
  end

end

.bench_performance_exponential(name, threshold = 0.99, &work) ⇒ Object

Create a benchmark that verifies that the performance is exponential.

  bench_performance_exponential "algorithm" do |n|
    @obj.algorithm(n)
  end

end

.bench_performance_linear(name, threshold = 0.99, &work) ⇒ Object

Create a benchmark that verifies that the performance is linear.

describe "my class" do
  bench_performance_linear "fast_algorithm", 0.9999 do |n|
    @obj.fast_algorithm(n)
  end
end

.it(desc = "anonymous", &block) ⇒ Object Also known as: specify

Define an expectation with name desc. Name gets morphed to a proper test method name. For some freakish reason, people who write specs don’t like class inheritence, so this goes way out of its way to make sure that expectations aren’t inherited.

This is also aliased to #specify and doesn’t require a desc arg.

Hint: If you do want inheritence, use minitest/unit. You can mix and match between assertions and expectations as much as you want.

.register_spec_type(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

Register a new type of spec that matches the spec’s description. This method can take either a Regexp and a spec class or a spec class and a block that takes the description and returns true if it matches.

Eg:

register_spec_type(/Controller$/, MiniTest::Spec::Rails)

or:

register_spec_type(MiniTest::Spec::RailsModel) do |desc|
  desc.superclass == ActiveRecord::Base
end
