Class: Buildr::TestTask

Inherits:
Rake::Task show all
Defined in:
lib/buildr/core/test.rb

Overview

The test task controls the entire test lifecycle.

You can use the test task in three ways. You can access and configure specific test tasks, e.g. enhance the #compile task, or run code during #setup/#teardown.

You can use convenient methods that handle the most common settings. For example, add dependencies using #with, or include only specific tests using #include.

You can also enhance this task directly. This task will first execute the #compile task, followed by the #setup task, run the unit tests, any other enhancements, and end by executing #teardown.

The test framework is determined based on the available test files, for example, if the test cases are written in Java, then JUnit is selected as the test framework. You can also select a specific test framework, for example, to use TestNG instead of JUnit:

test.using :testng

#compile(*sources, &block) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

compile(*sources) => CompileTask
compile(*sources) { |task| .. } => CompileTask

The compile task is similar to the Project’s compile task. However, it compiles all files found in the src/test/source directory into the target/test/code directory. This task is executed by the test task before running any tests.

Once the project definition is complete, all dependencies from the regular compile task are copied over, so you only need to specify dependencies specific to your tests. You can do so by calling #with on the test task. The dependencies used here are also copied over to the junit task.



247
248
249
 
# File 'lib/buildr/core/test.rb', line 247

def compile(*sources, &block)
  @project.task('test:compile').from(sources).enhance &block
end

#default_options ⇒ Object

end

#exclude(*names) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

exclude(*names) => self

Exclude the specified tests. This method accepts multiple arguments and returns self. See #include for the type of arguments you can use.

    # and pick the first (default) one, unless already specified in parent project.
    candidates = TestFramework.frameworks.select { |cls| cls.applies_to?(@project) }
    candidate = @project.parent && candidates.detect { |framework| framework.to_sym == @project.parent.test.framework } ||
      candidates.first
    self.framework = candidate if candidate
  end
  @framework && @framework.class.to_sym
end

#include(*names) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

include(*names) => self

Include only the specified tests. Unless specified, the default is to include all tests identified by the test framework. This method accepts multiple arguments and returns self.

Tests are specified by their full name, but you can use glob patterns to select multiple tests, for example:

test.include 'com.example.FirstTest'  # FirstTest only
test.include 'com.example.*'          # All tests under com/example
test.include 'com.example.Module*'    # All tests starting with Module
test.include '*.{First,Second}Test'   # FirstTest, SecondTest

def include(*names)

end

#last_successful_run_file ⇒ Object

# File 'lib/buildr/core/test.rb', line 399

def last_successful_run_file #:nodoc:
  File.join(report_to.to_s, 'last_successful_run')
end

#report_to ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

report_to => file

Test frameworks that can produce reports, will write them to this directory.

This is framework dependent, so unless you use the default test framework, call this method after setting the test framework.



394
395
396
 
# File 'lib/buildr/core/test.rb', line 394

def report_to
  @report_to ||= file(@project.path_to(:reports, framework)=>self)
end

#resources(*prereqs, &block) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

resources(*prereqs) => ResourcesTask
resources(*prereqs) { |task| .. } => ResourcesTask

Executes by the #compile task to copy resource files over. See Project#resources.



256
257
258
 
# File 'lib/buildr/core/test.rb', line 256

def resources(*prereqs, &block)
  @project.task('test:resources').enhance prereqs, &block
end

#setup(*prereqs, &block) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

setup(*prereqs) => task
setup(*prereqs) { |task| .. } => task

Returns the setup task. The setup task is executed at the beginning of the test task, after compiling the test files.



266
267
268
 
# File 'lib/buildr/core/test.rb', line 266

def setup(*prereqs, &block)
  @project.task('test:setup').enhance prereqs, &block
end

#teardown(*prereqs, &block) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

teardown(*prereqs) => task
teardown(*prereqs) { |task| .. } => task

Returns the teardown task. The teardown task is executed at the end of the test task.



275
276
277
 
# File 'lib/buildr/core/test.rb', line 275

def teardown(*prereqs, &block)
  @project.task('test:teardown').enhance prereqs, &block
end

#timestamp ⇒ Object

The time stamp of the last successful test run. Or Rake::EARLY if no successful test run recorded.



404
405
406
 
# File 'lib/buildr/core/test.rb', line 404

def timestamp #:nodoc:
  File.exist?(last_successful_run_file) ? File.mtime(last_successful_run_file) : Rake::EARLY
end

#using(*args) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

using(options) => self

Sets various test options from a hash and returns self. For example:

test.using :fork=>:each, :properties=>{ 'url'=>'http://localhost:8080' }

Can also be used to select the test framework, or to run these tests as integration tests. For example:

test.using :testng
test.using :integration

The :fail_on_failure option specifies whether the task should fail if any of the tests fail (default), or should report the failures but continue running the build (when set to false).

All other options depend on the capability of the test framework. These options should be used the same way across all frameworks that support them:

  • :fork – Fork once for each project (:once, default), for each test in each

    project (:each), or don't fork at all (false).

  • :properties – Properties pass to the test, e.g. in Java as system properties.

  • :environment – Environment variables. This hash is made available in the

    form of environment variables.
