a Filter

An immutable IndexedSeq

An immutable IndexedSeq

object's nested Suite

contains no nested Suite
s,
this method returns an empty IndexedSeq

The fully qualified name of the class that can be used to rerun this suite.

Runs this suite of tests.
Runs this suite of tests.
an optional name of one test to execute. If None
, all relevant tests should be executed.
I.e., None
acts like a wildcard that means execute all relevant tests in this Suite
.
the Args

a Status
object that indicates when all tests and nested suites started by this method have completed, and whether or not a failure occurred.
NullArgumentException
if any passed parameter is null
.
This suite's style name.
This suite's style name.
This lifecycle method provides a string that is used to determine whether this suite object's style is one of the chosen styles for the project.
A string ID for this Suite
that is intended to be unique among all suites reported during a run.
A string ID for this Suite
that is intended to be unique among all suites reported during a run.
The suite ID is intended to be unique, because ScalaTest does not enforce that it is unique. If it is not unique, then you may not be able to uniquely identify a particular test of a particular suite. This ability is used, for example, to dynamically tag tests as having failed in the previous run when rerunning only failed tests.
this Suite
object's ID.
A user-friendly suite name for this Suite
.
A user-friendly suite name for this Suite

This trait's
implementation of this method returns the simple name of this object's class. This
trait's implementation of runNestedSuites
calls this method to obtain a
name for Report
s to pass to the suiteStarting
, suiteCompleted
,
and suiteAborted
methods of the Reporter
.
this Suite
object's suite name.
A Map
whose keys are String
names of tagged tests and
whose associated values are the Set
of tag names for the test.
A Map
whose keys are String
names of tagged tests and
whose associated values are the Set
of tag names for the test. If a test has no associated tags, its name
does not appear as a key in the returned Map
. If this Suite
contains no tests with tags, this
method returns an empty Map
.
Subclasses may override this method to define and/or discover tags in a custom manner, but overriding method implementations
should never return an empty Set
as a value. If a test has no tags, its name should not appear as a key in the
returned Map
.
Provides a TestData
instance for the passed test name, given the passed config map.
Provides a TestData
instance for the passed test name, given the passed config map.
This method is used to obtain a TestData
instance to pass to withFixture(NoArgTest)
and withFixture(OneArgTest)
and the beforeEach
and afterEach
methods
of trait BeforeAndAfterEach
.
the name of the test for which to return a TestData
instance
the config map to include in the returned TestData
a TestData
instance for the specified test, which includes the specified config map
A Set
of test names.
A Set
of test names. If this Suite
contains no tests, this method returns an empty Set
.
Although subclass and subtrait implementations of this method may return a Set
whose iterator produces String
test names in a well-defined order, the contract of this method does not required a defined order. Subclasses are free to
implement this method and return test names in either a defined or undefined order.
Construct a new instance of this Suite

This trait's implementation of runTests
invokes this method to create
a new instance of this Suite
for each test. This trait's implementation
of this method uses reflection to call this.getClass.newInstance
. This
approach will succeed only if this Suite
's class has a public, no-arg
constructor. In most cases this is likely to be true, because to be instantiated
by ScalaTest's Runner
a Suite
needs a public, no-arg
constructor. However, this will not be true of any Suite
defined as
an inner class of another class or trait, because every constructor of an inner
class type takes a reference to the enclosing instance. In such cases, and in
cases where a Suite
class is explicitly defined without a public,
no-arg constructor, you will need to override this method to construct a new
instance of the Suite
in some other way.
Here's an example of how you could override newInstance
to construct
a new instance of an inner class:
import org.scalatest.Suite class Outer { class InnerSuite extends Suite with OneInstancePerTest { def testOne() {} def testTwo() {} override def newInstance = new InnerSuite } }
Trait that facilitates a style of testing in which each test is run in its own instance of the suite class to isolate each test from the side effects of the other tests in the suite.
OneInstancePerTest
is intended primarily to serve as a supertrait forParallelTestExecution
and the path traits, to facilitate porting JUnit tests to ScalaTest, and to make it easy for users who prefer JUnit's approach to isolation to obtain similar behavior in ScalaTest.If you mix this trait into a
Suite
, you can initialize shared reassignable fixture variables as well as shared mutable fixture objects in the constructor of the class. Because each test will run in its own instance of the class, each test will get a fresh copy of the instance variables. This is the approach to test isolation taken, for example, by the JUnit framework.OneInstancePerTest
can, therefore, be handy when porting JUnit tests to ScalaTest.Here's an example of
OneInstancePerTest
being used in aFunSuite
:OneInstancePerTest
is supertrait toParallelTestExecution
, in which running each test in its own instance is intended to make it easier to write suites of tests that run in parallel (by reducing the likelihood of concurrency bugs in those suites.)OneInstancePerTest
is also supertrait to the path traits,path.FunSpec
andpath.FreeSpec
, to make it obvious these traits run each test in a new, isolated instance.For the details on how
OneInstancePerTest
works, see the documentation for methodsrunTests
andrunTest
, which this trait overrides.
