3.2.9 - 2018-12-01 #version-3-2-9

Improvements

• Added support for data generation by method. data_#{test_name} is called to generate data for test_name test.

• Added support for data matrix generation.

  Example:

  data(:a, [0, 1, 2])
  data(:b, [:x, :y])
  def test_data(data)
  end

  This example generates the following data matrix:

  • label: "a: 0, b: :x", data: {a: 0, b: :x}
  • label: "a: 0, b: :y", data: {a: 0, b: :y}
  • label: "a: 1, b: :x", data: {a: 1, b: :x}
  • label: "a: 1, b: :y", data: {a: 1, b: :y}
  • label: "a: 2, b: :x", data: {a: 2, b: :x}
  • label: "a: 2, b: :y", data: {a: 2, b: :y}

• Added Test::Unit::TestCase#data that returns the current data.

• Added support for using test method that doesn't have no parameters as data driven test.

  Example:

  data("label", :value)
  def test_data # Available since this release
    p data # :value
  end

• Added support for :keep option to Test::Unit::TestCase#data.

• Added support for :group option to Test::Unit::TestCase#data. It's useful to generate multiple data matrix groups.

  # Group1
  data(:a, [0, 1, 2], group: :g1)
  data(:b, [:x, :y], group: :g1)
  # Group2
  data(:a, [:x, :y], group: :g2)
  data(:c, [-1, -2], group: :g2)
  def test_data(data)
  end

  This example generates the following data matrix:

  • label: "group: :g1, a: 0, b: :x", data: {a: 0, b: :x}
  • label: "group: :g1, a: 0, b: :y", data: {a: 0, b: :y}
  • label: "group: :g1, a: 1, b: :x", data: {a: 1, b: :x}
  • label: "group: :g1, a: 1, b: :y", data: {a: 1, b: :y}
  • label: "group: :g1, a: 2, b: :x", data: {a: 2, b: :x}
  • label: "group: :g1, a: 2, b: :y", data: {a: 2, b: :y}
  • label: "group: :g2, a: :x, b: -1", data: {a: :x, b: -1}
  • label: "group: :g2, a: :x, b: -2", data: {a: :x, b: -2}
  • label: "group: :g2, a: :y, b: -1", data: {a: :y, b: -1}
  • label: "group: :g2, a: :y, b: -2", data: {a: :y, b: -2}

For example, we recommend Power Assert rather than Test::Unit::Assertions#assert_true, Test::Unit::Assertions#assert_predicate and so on. We don't recommend using Power Assert for equality check assertion. Test::Unit::Assertions#assert_equal should be used for the case. [Kazuki Tsujimoto]
