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.

def self.after type = :each, &block
  raise "unsupported after type: #{type}" unless type == :each
  define_inheritable_method :teardown, &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.

  define_inheritable_method :setup, &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.

  bench_performance_constant "zoom_algorithm!" do
    @obj.zoom_algorithm!
  end

Create a benchmark that verifies that the performance is exponential.

  bench_performance_exponential "algorithm" do

  end

.define_inheritable_method(name, &block) ⇒ Object

Spec users want setup/teardown to be inherited and NOTHING ELSE. It is almost like method reuse is lost on them.

.it(desc, &block) ⇒ Object

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.

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