Instance Method Details

#data(label, data, options = {}) ⇒ Object #data(variable, patterns, options = {}) ⇒ Object #data(data_set, options = {}) ⇒ Object #data(options = {}, &block) ⇒ Object #data(options = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

This method provides Data-Driven-Test functionality.

Define test data in the test code.

Overloads:

  • #data(label, data, options = {}) ⇒ Object

    Examples:

    data(label, data)

    data("empty string", [true, ""])
    data("plain string", [false, "hello"])
    def test_empty?(data)
      expected, target = data
      assert_equal(expected, target.empty?)
    end

    Parameters:

    • label (String)

      specify test case name.

    • data

      specify test data.

    • options (Hash) (defaults to: {})

      specify options.

    Options Hash (options):

    • :keep (Boolean)

      whether or not to use this data in the following test methods

  • #data(variable, patterns, options = {}) ⇒ Object

    Generates test matrix from variable and patterns pairs.

    Examples:

    data(variable, patterns)

    data(:x, [1, 2, 3])
    data(:y, ["a", "b"])
    def test_patterns(data)
      # 3 * 2 times executed
      # 3: the number of patterns of :x
      # 2: the number of patterns of :y
      p data
        # => {:x => 1, :y => "a"}
        # => {:x => 1, :y => "b"}
        # => {:x => 2, :y => "a"}
        # => {:x => 2, :y => "b"}
        # => {:x => 3, :y => "a"}
        # => {:x => 3, :y => "b"}
    end

    Parameters:

    • variable (Symbol)

      specify test pattern variable name.

    • patterns (Array)

      specify test patterns for the variable.

    • options (Hash) (defaults to: {})

      specify options.

    Options Hash (options):

    • :keep (Boolean)

      whether or not to use this data in the following test methods

    • :group (Object)

      the test pattern group. Test matrix is generated for each test pattern group separately.

  • #data(data_set, options = {}) ⇒ Object

    Examples:

    data(data_set)

    data("empty string" => [true, ""],
         "plain string" => [false, "hello"])
    def test_empty?(data)
      expected, target = data
      assert_equal(expected, target.empty?)
    end

    Parameters:

    • data_set (Hash)

      specify test data as a Hash that key is test label and value is test data.

    • options (Hash) (defaults to: {})

      specify options.

    Options Hash (options):

    • :keep (Boolean)

      whether or not to use this data in the following test methods

  • #data(options = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

    Examples:

    data(&block)

    data do
      data_set = {}
      data_set["empty string"] = [true, ""]
      data_set["plain string"] = [false, "hello"]
      data_set
    end
    def test_empty?(data)
      expected, target = data
      assert_equal(expected, target.empty?)
    end

    Parameters:

    • options (Hash) (defaults to: {})

      specify options.

    Options Hash (options):

    • :keep (Boolean)

      whether or not to use this data in the following test methods

    Yield Returns:

    • (Hash<String, Object>)

      return test data set as a Hash that key is test label and value is test data.

  • #data(options = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

    Generates test matrix from variable and patterns pairs.

    Examples:

    data(&block)

    data do
      patterns = 3.times.to_a
      [:x, patterns]
    end
    data do
      patterns = []
      character = "a"
      2.times.each do
        patterns << character
        character = character.succ
      end
      [:y, patterns]
    end
    def test_patterns(data)
      # 3 * 2 times executed
      # 3: the number of patterns of :x
      # 2: the number of patterns of :y
      p data
        # => {:x => 0, :y => "a"}
        # => {:x => 0, :y => "b"}
        # => {:x => 1, :y => "a"}
        # => {:x => 1, :y => "b"}
        # => {:x => 2, :y => "a"}
        # => {:x => 2, :y => "b"}
    end

    Parameters:

    • options (Hash) (defaults to: {})

      specify options.

    Options Hash (options):

    • :keep (Boolean)

      whether or not to use this data in the following test methods

    Yield Returns:

    • (Array<Symbol, Array>)

      return test data set as an Array of variable and patterns.

#load_data(file_name) ⇒ Object

This method provides Data-Driven-Test functionality.

Load test data from the file. This is shorthand to load test data from file. If you want to load complex file, you can use #data with block.

Examples:

Load data from CSV file

load_data("/path/to/test-data.csv")
def test_empty?(data)
  assert_equal(data["expected"], data["target"].empty?)
end

Parameters:

  • file_name (String)

    full path to test data file. File format is automatically detected from filename extension.

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

    if ‘file_name` is not supported file format.
