Module: Minitest::Assertions

Included in:
Test
Defined in:
lib/minitest/assertions.rb,
lib/minitest/mock.rb

Overview

Minitest Assertions. All assertion methods accept a msg which is printed if the assertion fails.

Protocol: Nearly everything here boils up to assert, which expects to be able to increment an instance accessor named assertions. This is not provided by Assertions and must be provided by the thing including Assertions. See Minitest::Runnable for an example.

  assert obj.empty?, msg
end

#assert_equal(exp, act, msg = nil) ⇒ Object

Fails unless exp == act printing the difference between the two, if possible.

If there is no visible difference but the assertion fails, you should suspect that your #== is buggy, or your inspect output is missing crucial details. For nicer structural diffing, set Minitest::Test.make_my_diffs_pretty!

For floats use assert_in_delta.

#assert_output(stdout = nil, stderr = nil) ⇒ Object

Fails if stdout or stderr do not output the expected results. Pass in nil if you don’t care about that streams output. Pass in “” if you require it to be silent. Pass in a regexp if you want to pattern match.

assert_output(/hey/) { method_with_output }

NOTE: this uses #capture_io, not #capture_subprocess_io.

#assert_patternObject

For testing with pattern matching (only supported with Ruby 3.0 and later)

# pass
assert_pattern { [1,2,3] => [Integer, Integer, Integer] }

# fail "length mismatch (given 3, expected 1)"
assert_pattern { [1,2,3] => [Integer] }

The bare => pattern will raise a NoMatchingPatternError on failure, which would normally be counted as a test error. This assertion rescues NoMatchingPatternError and generates a test failure. Any other exception will be raised as normal and generate a test error.

Raises:

  • (NotImplementedError)

  begin # TODO: remove after ruby 2.6 dropped
    yield
    pass
  rescue NoMatchingPatternError => e
    flunk e.message
  end
end

#assert_predicate(o1, op, msg = nil) ⇒ Object

For testing with predicates. Eg:

assert_predicate str, :empty?

This is really meant for specs and is front-ended by assert_operator:

str.must_be :empty?


395
396
397
398
# File 'lib/minitest/assertions.rb', line 395

def assert_predicate o1, op, msg = nil
  msg = message(msg) { "Expected #{mu_pp(o1)} to be #{op}" }
  assert o1.__send__(op), msg
end

#assert_raises(*exp) ⇒ Object

Fails unless the block raises one of exp. Returns the exception matched so you can check the message, attributes, etc.

exp takes an optional message on the end to help explain failures and defaults to StandardError if no exception class is passed. Eg:

assert_raises(CustomError) { method_with_custom_error }

With custom error message:

assert_raises(CustomError, 'This should have raised CustomError') { method_with_custom_error }

Using the returned object:

error = assert_raises(CustomError) do
  raise CustomError, 'This is really bad'
end

assert_equal 'This is really bad', error.message

#capture_ioObject

Captures $stdout and $stderr into strings:

out, err = capture_io do
  puts "Some info"
  warn "You did a bad thing"
end

assert_match %r%info%, out
assert_match %r%bad%, err

NOTE: For efficiency, this method uses StringIO and does not capture IO for subprocesses. Use #capture_subprocess_io for that.

#capture_subprocess_ioObject

Captures $stdout and $stderr into strings, using Tempfile to ensure that subprocess IO is captured as well.

out, err = capture_subprocess_io do
  system "echo Some info"
  system "echo You did a bad thing 1>&2"
end

assert_match %r%info%, out
assert_match %r%bad%, err

NOTE: This method is approximately 10x slower than #capture_io so only use it when you need to test the output of a subprocess.

#mu_pp_for_diff(obj) ⇒ Object

This returns a diff-able more human-readable version of obj. This differs from the regular mu_pp because it expands escaped newlines and makes hex-values (like object_ids) generic. This uses mu_pp to do the first pass and then cleans it up.

For testing with pattern matching (only supported with Ruby 3.0 and later)

# pass
refute_pattern { [1,2,3] => [String] }

# fail "NoMatchingPatternError expected, but nothing was raised."
refute_pattern { [1,2,3] => [Integer, Integer, Integer] }

This assertion expects a NoMatchingPatternError exception, and will fail if none is raised. Any other exceptions will be raised as normal and generate a test error.

Raises:

Skips the current run until a given date (in the local time zone). This allows you to put some fixes on hold until a later date, but still holds you accountable and prevents you from forgetting it.

#things_to_diff(exp, act) ⇒ Object

Returns things to diff [expect, butwas], or [nil, nil] if nothing to diff.

Criterion:

  1. Strings include newlines or escaped newlines, but not both.

  2. or: String lengths are > 30 characters.

  3. or: Strings are equal to each other (but maybe different encodings?).

  4. and: we found a diff executable.
