A suite of tests that can be run with either JUnit or ScalaTest. This trait allows you to write JUnit 4 tests
with ScalaTest's more concise assertion syntax as well as JUnit's assertions (assertEquals
, etc.).
You create tests by defining methods that are annotated with Test
, and can create fixtures with
methods annotated with Before
and After
. For example:
BECAUSE OF A SCALADOC BUG IN SCALA 2.8, I HAD TO PUT A SPACE AFTER THE AT SIGN IN ANNOTATION EXAMPLES. IF YOU WANT TO COPY AND PASTE FROM THESE EXAMPLES, YOU'LL NEED TO REMOVE THE SPACE BY HAND, OR COPY FROM THE JUNITSUITE SCALADOC FOR VERSION 1.1 INSTEAD, WHICH IS ALSO VALID FOR 1.3. - Bill Venners
import org.scalatest.junit.JUnitSuite import scala.collection.mutable.ListBuffer import _root_.org.junit.Test import _root_.org.junit.Beforeclass TwoSuite extends JUnitSuite {
var sb: StringBuilder = _ var lb: ListBuffer[String] = _
@ Before def initialize() { sb = new StringBuilder("ScalaTest is ") lb = new ListBuffer[String] }
@ Test def verifyEasy() { sb.append("easy!") assert(sb.toString === "ScalaTest is easy!") assert(lb.isEmpty) lb += "sweet" }
@ Test def verifyFun() { sb.append("fun!") assert(sb.toString === "ScalaTest is fun!") assert(lb.isEmpty) } }
To execute JUnitSuite
s with ScalaTest's Runner
, you must include JUnit's jar file on the class path or runpath.
This version of JUnitSuite
was tested with JUnit version 4.4.

Because trait Suite
mixes in Assertions
, this implicit conversion will always be
available by default in ScalaTest Suite
s. This is the only implicit conversion that is in scope by default in every
ScalaTest Suite
. Other implicit conversions offered by ScalaTest, such as those that support the matchers DSL
or invokePrivate
, must be explicitly invited into your test code, either by mixing in a trait or importing the
members of its companion object. The reason ScalaTest requires you to invite in implicit conversions (with the exception of the
implicit conversion for ===
operator) is because if one of ScalaTest's implicit conversions clashes with an
implicit conversion used in the code you are trying to test, your program won't compile. Thus there is a chance that if you
are ever trying to use a library or test some code that also offers an implicit conversion involving a ===
operator,
you could run into the problem of a compiler error due to an ambiguous implicit conversion. If that happens, you can turn off
the implicit conversion offered by this convertToEqualizer
method simply by overriding the method in your
Suite
subclass, but not marking it as implicit:
// In your Suite subclass override def convertToEqualizer(left: Any) = new Equalizer(left)

The eq
method implements an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_relation equivalence relation] on
non-null instances of AnyRef
:
* It is reflexive: for any non-null instance x
of type AnyRef
, x.eq(x)
returns true
.
* It is symmetric: for any non-null instances x
and y
of type AnyRef
, x.eq(y)
returns true
if and
only if y.eq(x)
returns true
.
* It is transitive: for any non-null instances x
, y
, and z
of type AnyRef
if x.eq(y)
returns true
and y.eq(z)
returns true
, then x.eq(z)
returns true
.
Additionally, the eq
method has three other properties.
* It is consistent: for any non-null instances x
and y
of type AnyRef
, multiple invocations of
x.eq(y)
consistently returns true
or consistently returns false
.
* For any non-null instance x
of type AnyRef
, x.eq(null)
and null.eq(x)
returns false
.
* null.eq(null)
returns true
.
When overriding the equals
or hashCode
methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is
consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (o1 eq o2
), they
should be equal to each other (o1 == o2
) and they should hash to the same value (o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode
).

The default implementations of this method is an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_relation equivalence
relation]:
* It is reflexive: for any instance x

If you override this method, you should verify that your implementation remains an equivalence relation.
Additionally, when overriding this method it is often necessary to override hashCode
to ensure that objects
that are "equal" (o1.equals(o2)
returns true
) hash to the same scala.Int
(o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)

Note: In ScalaTest, the terms "execute" and "run" basically mean the same thing and
can be used interchangably. The reason this convenience method and its three overloaded forms
aren't named run
is because junit.framework.TestCase
declares a run
method
that takes no arguments but returns a junit.framework.TestResult
. That
run
method would not overload with this method if it were named run
,
because it would have the same parameters but a different return type than the one
defined in TestCase
. To facilitate integration with JUnit 3, therefore,
these convenience "run" methods are named execute
. In particular, this allows trait
org.scalatest.junit.JUnit3Suite
to extend both org.scalatest.Suite
and
junit.framework.TestCase
, which enables the creating of classes that
can be run with either ScalaTest or JUnit 3.

Intercept and return an exception that's expected to

this method returns that exception. Else, whether the passed function returns normally
or completes abruptly with a different exception, this method throws TestFailedException

Note that the type specified as this method's type parameter may represent any subtype of
AnyRef

or one of its subclasses. In
Scala, exceptions can be caught based on traits they implement, so it may at times make sense
to specify a trait that the intercepted exception's class must mix in. If a class instance is

Throws TestPendingException
to indicate a test is pending.
Throws TestPendingException
to indicate a test is pending.
A pending test is one that has been given a name but is not yet implemented. The purpose of pending tests is to facilitate a style of testing in which documentation of behavior is sketched out before tests are written to verify that behavior (and often, the before the behavior of the system being tested is itself implemented). Such sketches form a kind of specification of what tests and functionality to implement later.
To support this style of testing, a test can be given a name that specifies one
bit of behavior required by the system being tested. The test can also include some code that
sends more information about the behavior to the reporter when the tests run. At the end of the test,
it can call method pending
, which will cause it to complete abruptly with TestPendingException
.
Because tests in ScalaTest can be designated as pending with TestPendingException
, both the test name and any information
sent to the reporter when running the test can appear in the report of a test run. (In other words,
the code of a pending test is executed just like any other test.) However, because the test completes abruptly
with TestPendingException
, the test will be reported as pending, to indicate
the actual test, and possibly the functionality it is intended to test, has not yet been implemented.
Note: This method always completes abruptly with a TestPendingException
. Thus it always has a side
effect. Methods with side effects are usually invoked with parentheses, as in pending()
. This
method is defined as a parameterless method, in flagrant contradiction to recommended Scala style, because it
forms a kind of DSL for pending tests. It enables tests in suites such as FunSuite
or Spec
to be denoted by placing "(pending)
" after the test name, as in:
test("that style rules are not laws") (pending)
Readers of the code see "pending" in parentheses, which looks like a little note attached to the test name to indicate
it is pending. Whereas "(pending())
looks more like a method call, "(pending)
" lets readers
stay at a higher level, forgetting how it is implemented and just focusing on the intent of the programmer who wrote the code.
Execute the passed block of code, and if it completes abruptly, throw TestPendingException
, else
throw TestFailedException
.
Execute the passed block of code, and if it completes abruptly, throw TestPendingException
, else

.
This method can be used to temporarily change a failing test into a pending test in such a way that it will
automatically turn back into a failing test once the problem originally causing the test to fail has been fixed.
At that point, you need only remove the pendingUntilFixed
call. In other words, a
pendingUntilFixed
surrounding a block of code that isn't broken is treated as a test failure.
The motivation for this behavior is to encourage people to remove pendingUntilFixed
calls when
there are no longer needed.
This method facilitates a style of testing in which tests are written before the code they test. Sometimes you may
encounter a test failure that requires more functionality than you want to tackle without writing more tests. In this
case you can mark the bit of test code causing the failure with pendingUntilFixed
. You can then write more
tests and functionality that eventually will get your production code to a point where the original test won't fail anymore.
At this point the code block marked with pendingUntilFixed
will no longer throw an exception (because the
problem has been fixed). This will in turn cause pendingUntilFixed
to throw TestFailedException
with a detail message explaining you need to go back and remove the pendingUntilFixed
call as the problem orginally
causing your test code to fail has been fixed.

Runs this suite of tests.
If testName
is None
, this trait's implementation of this method
calls these two methods on this object in this order:
runNestedSuites(report, stopper, tagsToInclude, tagsToExclude, configMap, distributor)
runTests(testName, report, stopper, tagsToInclude, tagsToExclude, configMap)
If testName
is defined, then this trait's implementation of this method
calls runTests
, but does not call runNestedSuites
. This behavior
is part of the contract of this method. Subclasses that override run
must take
care not to call runNestedSuites
if testName
is defined. (The
OneInstancePerTest
trait depends on this behavior, for example.)
Subclasses and subtraits that override this run
method can implement them without
invoking either the runTests
or runNestedSuites
methods, which
are invoked by this trait's implementation of this method. It is recommended, but not required,
that subclasses and subtraits that override run
in a way that does not
invoke runNestedSuites
also override runNestedSuites
and make it
final. Similarly it is recommended, but not required,
that subclasses and subtraits that override run
in a way that does not
invoke runTests
also override runTests
(and runTest
,
which this trait's implementation of runTests
calls) and make it
final. The implementation of these final methods can either invoke the superclass implementation
of the method, or throw an UnsupportedOperationException
if appropriate. The
reason for this recommendation is that ScalaTest includes several traits that override
these methods to allow behavior to be mixed into a Suite
. For example, trait
BeforeAndAfterEach
overrides runTests
s. In a Suite
subclass that no longer invokes runTests
from run
, the
BeforeAndAfterEach
trait is not applicable. Mixing it in would have no effect.
By making runTests
final in such a Suite
subtrait, you make
the attempt to mix BeforeAndAfterEach
into a subclass of your subtrait
a compiler error. (It would fail to compile with a complaint that BeforeAndAfterEach
is trying to override runTests
, which is a final method in your trait.)

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

,
and suiteAborted
methods of the Reporter

object's suite name.
A Map
whose keys are String
tag names with which tests in this Suite
are marked, and
whose values are the Set
of test names marked with each tag. If this Suite
contains no tags, this
method returns an empty Map

This trait's implementation of this method uses Java reflection to discover any Java annotations attached to its test methods. The
fully qualified name of each unique annotation that extends TagAnnotation
is considered a tag. This trait's
implementation of this method, therefore, places one key/value pair into to the
Map
for each unique tag annotation name discovered through reflection. The mapped value for each tag name key will contain
the test method name, as provided via the testNames
method.
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 tag has no tests, its name should not appear as a key in the
returned Map
.
Note, the TagAnnotation
annotation was introduced in ScalaTest 1.0, when "groups" were renamed
to "tags." In 1.0 and 1.1, the TagAnnotation
will continue to not be required by an annotation on a Suite
method. Any annotation on a Suite
method will be considered a tag until 1.2, to give users time to add
TagAnnotation
s on any tag annotations they made prior to the 1.0 release. From 1.2 onward, only annotations
themselves annotated by TagAnnotation
will be considered tag annotations.

The iterator obtained by invoking elements

runs the tests, and JUnit may run the tests in any order.

Executes the block of code passed as the second parameter, and, if it
completes abruptly with a ModifiableMessage
exception,
prepends the "clue" string passed as the first parameter to the beginning of the detail message
of that thrown exception, then rethrows it.
Executes the block of code passed as the second parameter, and, if it
completes abruptly with a ModifiableMessage
exception,
prepends the "clue" string passed as the first parameter to the beginning of the detail message
of that thrown exception, then rethrows it. If clue does not end in a white space
character, one space will be added
between it and the existing detail message (unless the detail message is
not defined).
This method allows you to add more information about what went wrong that will be reported when a test fails. Here's an example:
withClue("(Employee's name was: " + employee.name + ")") { intercept[IllegalArgumentException] { employee.getTask(-1) } }
If an invocation of intercept
completed abruptly with an exception, the resulting message would be something like:
(Employee's name was Bob Jones) Expected IllegalArgumentException to be thrown, but no exception was thrown

The main purpose of this method implementation is to render a compiler error an attempt
to mix in a trait that overrides withFixture
. Because this
trait does not actually use withFixture
, the attempt to mix
in behavior would very likely not work.

A suite of tests that can be run with either JUnit or ScalaTest. This trait allows you to write JUnit 4 tests with ScalaTest's more concise assertion syntax as well as JUnit's assertions (
assertEquals
, etc.). You create tests by defining methods that are annotated withTest
, and can create fixtures with methods annotated withBefore
andAfter
. For example:BECAUSE OF A SCALADOC BUG IN SCALA 2.8, I HAD TO PUT A SPACE AFTER THE AT SIGN IN ANNOTATION EXAMPLES. IF YOU WANT TO COPY AND PASTE FROM THESE EXAMPLES, YOU'LL NEED TO REMOVE THE SPACE BY HAND, OR COPY FROM THE JUNITSUITE SCALADOC FOR VERSION 1.1 INSTEAD, WHICH IS ALSO VALID FOR 1.3. - Bill Venners
