bgamari / shiny

a shiny test framework for rust

Ooh, shiny!

Shiny makes you less distracted with copying over initializarion code in test cases. It also has a fancy syntax similar to ruby's rspec or Objective-C's kiwi.

Installation

Install in usual way with cargo.

Usage

Add shiny crate:

#![feature(phase)]
#[cfg(test)] #[phase(plugin,link)] extern crate shiny;

Write your shiny test case:

#[cfg(test)]
mod test {
  describe!(
    before_each {
      let awesome = true;
    }

    it "is awesome" {
      assert!(awesome);
    }

    it "injects before_each into all test cases" {
      let still_awesome = awesome;
      assert!(still_awesome);
    }
  )
}

all the items from before_each are inserted as is into generated test case functions. Mind the final semicolon in before_each block!

TODO

• add support for context to do recursive prologue injections
• better filtering for test case name
