== DESCRIPTION:
minitest provides a complete suite of testing facilities supporting
TDD, BDD, mocking, and benchmarking.
"I had a class with Jim Weirich on testing last week and we were
allowed to choose our testing frameworks. Kirk Haines and I were
paired up and we cracked open the code for a few test
frameworks...
I MUST say that minitest is *very* readable / understandable
compared to the 'other two' options we looked at. Nicely done and
thank you for helping us keep our mental sanity."
-- Wayne E. Seguin
minitest/unit is a small and incredibly fast unit testing framework.
It provides a rich set of assertions to make your tests clean and
readable.
minitest/spec is a functionally complete spec engine. It hooks onto
minitest/unit and seamlessly bridges test assertions over to spec
expectations.
minitest/benchmark is an awesome way to assert the performance of your
algorithms in a repeatable manner. Now you can assert that your newb
co-worker doesn't replace your linear algorithm with an exponential
one!
minitest/mock by Steven Baker, is a beautifully tiny mock (and stub)
object framework.
minitest/pride shows pride in testing and adds coloring to your test
output. I guess it is an example of how to write IO pipes too. :P
minitest/unit is meant to have a clean implementation for language
implementors that need a minimal set of methods to bootstrap a working
test suite. For example, there is no magic involved for test-case
discovery.
"Again, I can't praise enough the idea of a testing/specing
framework that I can actually read in full in one sitting!"

Comparing to rspec:
rspec is a testing DSL. minitest is ruby.
-- Adam Hawkins, "Bow Before MiniTest"
minitest doesn't reinvent anything that ruby already provides, like:
classes, modules, inheritance, methods. This means you only have to
learn ruby to use minitest and all of your regular OO practices like
extract-method refactorings still apply.
== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:
* minitest/autorun - the easy and explicit way to run all your tests.
* minitest/unit - a very fast, simple, and clean test system.
* minitest/spec - a very fast, simple, and clean spec system.
* minitest/mock - a simple and clean mock/stub system.
* minitest/benchmark - an awesome way to assert your algorithm's performance.
* minitest/pride - show your pride in testing!
* Incredibly small and fast runner, but no bells and whistles.
== RATIONALE:
See design_rationale.rb to see how specs and tests work in minitest.
== SYNOPSIS:
Given that you'd like to test the following class:
class Meme
def i_can_has_cheezburger?
"OHAI!"
end
def will_it_blend?
"YES!"
end
end
=== Unit tests
require "minitest/autorun"
class TestMeme < Minitest::Test
def setup
@meme = Meme.new
end
def test_that_kitty_can_eat
assert_equal "OHAI!", @meme.i_can_has_cheezburger?
end
def test_that_it_will_not_blend
refute_match /^no/i, @meme.will_it_blend?
end
def test_that_will_be_skipped
skip "test this later"
end
end
=== Specs
require "minitest/autorun"
describe Meme do
before do
@meme = Meme.new
end
describe "when asked about cheeseburgers" do
it "must respond positively" do
@meme.i_can_has_cheezburger?.must_equal "OHAI!"
end
end
describe "when asked about blending possibilities" do
it "won't say no" do
@meme.will_it_blend?.wont_match /^no/i
end
end
end

=== Benchmarks
Add benchmarks to your tests.
# optionally run benchmarks, good for CI-only work!
require "minitest/benchmark" if ENV["BENCH"]
class TestMeme < Minitest::Benchmark
# Override self.bench_range or default range is [1, 10, 100, 1_000, 10_000]
def bench_my_algorithm
assert_performance_linear 0.9999 do |n| # n is a range value
@obj.my_algorithm(n)
end
end
end
Or add them to your specs. If you make benchmarks optional, you'll
need to wrap your benchmarks in a conditional since the methods won't
be defined. In minitest 5, the describe name needs to match
/Bench(mark)?$/.
describe "Meme Benchmark" do
if ENV["BENCH"] then
bench_performance_linear "my_algorithm", 0.9999 do |n|
100.times do
@obj.my_algorithm(n)
end
end
end
end
outputs something like:
# Running benchmarks:
TestBlah 100 1000 10000
bench_my_algorithm 0.006167 0.079279 0.786993
bench_other_algorithm 0.061679 0.792797 7.869932
Output is tab-delimited to make it easy to paste into a spreadsheet.

it "should invoke the appropriate predicate method on the meme" do
@meme.expect :will_it_blend?, :return_value
@meme_asker.ask "will it blend"

end
end
end
end
=== Stubs
def test_stale_eh
obj_under_test = Something.new
refute obj_under_test.stale?
Time.stub :now, Time.at(0) do # stub goes away once the block is done
assert obj_under_test.stale?
end
end
A note on stubbing: In order to stub a method, the method must
actually exist prior to stubbing. Use a singleton method to create a
new non-existing method:
def obj_under_test.fake_method
...
end
== Writing Extensions
To define a plugin, add a file named minitest/XXX_plugin.rb to your
project/gem. Minitest will find and require that file using
Gem.find_files. It will then try to call plugin_XXX_init during
startup. The option processor will also try to call plugin_XXX_options
passing the OptionParser instance and the current options hash. This
lets you register your own command-line options. Here's a totally
bogus example:
# minitest/bogus_plugin.rb:
module Minitest
def self.plugin_bogus_options(opts, options)
opts.on "--myci", "Report results to my CI" do
options[:myci] = true
options[:myci_addr] = get_myci_addr
options[:myci_port] = get_myci_port
end
end
def self.plugin_bogus_init(options)
self.reporter << MyCI.new(options) if options[:myci]
end
end
=== Adding custom reporters
Minitest uses composite reporter to output test results using multiple
reporter instances. You can add new reporters to the composite during
the init_plugins phase. As we saw in +plugin_bonus_init+ above, you
simply add your reporter instance to the composite via +<<+.
+AbstractReporter+ defines the API for reporters. You may subclass it
and override any method you want to achieve your desired behavior.
start :: Called when the run has started.
record :: Called for each result, passed or otherwise.
report :: Called at the end of the run.
passed? :: Called to see if you detected any problems.
Using our example above, here is how we might implement MyCI:
# minitest/bogus_plugin.rb
module Minitest
class MyCI < AbstractReporter
attr_accessor :results, :addr, :port
def initialize options
self.results = []
self.addr = options[:myci_addr]
self.port = options[:myci_port]
end
def record result
self.results << result
end
def report
CI.connect(addr, port).send_results self.results
end
end
end
== FAQ
=== How to test SimpleDelegates?
The following implementation and test:
class Worker < SimpleDelegator
def work
end
end
describe Worker do
before do
@worker = Worker.new(Object.new)
end
it "must respond to work" do
@worker.must_respond_to :work
end
end
outputs a failure:
1) Failure:
Worker#test_0001_must respond to work [bug11.rb:16]:
Expected #<Object:0x007f9e7184f0a0> (Object) to respond to #work.
Worker is a SimpleDelegate which in 1.9+ is a subclass of BasicObject.
Expectations are put on Object (one level down) so the Worker
(SimpleDelegate) hits `method_missing` and delegates down to the
`Object.new` instance. That object doesn't respond to work so the test
fails.
You can bypass `SimpleDelegate#method_missing` by extending the worker
with `MiniTest::Expectations`. You can either do that in your setup at
the instance level, like:
before do
@worker = Worker.new(Object.new)
@worker.extend MiniTest::Expectations
end
or you can extend the Worker class (within the test file!), like:
class Worker
include ::MiniTest::Expectations
end
=== How to share code across test classes?
Use a module. That's exactly what they're for:
module UsefulStuff
def useful_method
# ...
end
end
describe Blah do
include UsefulStuff
def test_whatever
# useful_method available here
end
end
Remember, `describe` simply creates test classes. It's just ruby at
the end of the day and all your normal Good Ruby Rules (tm) apply. If
you want to extend your test using setup/teardown via a module, just
make sure you ALWAYS call super. before/after automatically call super
for you, so make sure you don't do it twice.

== REQUIREMENTS:
* Ruby 1.8, maybe even 1.6 or lower. No magic is involved.
== INSTALL:
sudo gem install minitest
On 1.9, you already have it. To get newer candy you can still install
the gem, and then requiring "minitest/autorun" should automatically
pull it in. If not, you'll need to do it yourself:
gem "minitest" # ensures you"re using the gem, and not the built-in MT
require "minitest/autorun"
# ... usual testing stuffs ...
DO NOTE: There is a serious problem with the way that ruby 1.9/2.0
packages their own gems. They install a gem specification file, but
don't install the gem contents in the gem path. This messes up
Gem.find_files and many other things (gem which, gem contents, etc).
Just install minitest as a gem for real and you'll be happier.

== REQUIREMENTS:
* Ruby 1.8, maybe even 1.6 or lower. No magic is involved.
== INSTALL:
sudo gem install minitest
On 1.9, you already have it. To get newer candy you can still install
the gem, and then requiring "minitest/autorun" should automatically
pull it in. If not, you'll need to do it yourself:
gem "minitest" # ensures you"re using the gem, and not the built-in MT
require "minitest/autorun"
# ... usual testing stuffs ...
DO NOTE: There is a serious problem with the way that ruby 1.9/2.0
packages their own gems. They install a gem specification file, but
don't install the gem contents in the gem path. This messes up
Gem.find_files and many other things (gem which, gem contents, etc).
Just install minitest as a gem for real and you'll be happier.
