Synopsis

The main function

goldenTest1 Source

Arguments

:: TestName	test name
-> IO (Maybe a)	get the golden correct value
-> IO a	get the tested value
-> (a -> a -> GDiff)	comparison function. If two values are the same, it should return `Equal`. If they are different, it should return a diff representation. First argument is golden value.
-> (a -> GShow)	Show the golden/actual value.
-> (a -> IO ())	update the golden file
-> TestTree

A very general testing function.

goldenTestIO Source

Arguments

:: TestName	test name
-> IO (Maybe a)	get the golden correct value
-> IO a	get the tested value
-> (a -> a -> IO GDiff)	comparison function. If two values are the same, it should return `Equal`. If they are different, it should return a diff representation. First argument is golden value.
-> (a -> IO GShow)	Show the golden/actual value.
-> (a -> IO ())	update the golden file
-> TestTree

A very general testing function. The IO version of show/diff are useful when using external diff or show mechanisms. If IO is not required, the goldenTest1 function should be used instead.

goldenTest Source

Arguments

:: TestName	test name
-> IO a	get the golden correct value
-> IO a	get the tested value
-> (a -> a -> IO (Maybe String))	comparison function. If two values are the same, it should return `Nothing`. If they are different, it should return an error that will be printed to the user. First argument is the golden value. The function may use `IO`, for example, to launch an external `diff` command.
-> (a -> IO ())	update the golden file
-> TestTree

A very general testing function. Use goldenTest1 instead if you can.

data GShow Source

How to show a value to the user.

Constructors

ShowText Text

Show the given text.

data GDiff Source

The comparison/diff result.

Constructors

Equal	Values are equal.
DiffText	The two values are different, show a diff between the two given texts.
Fields gReason :: Maybe String gActual :: Text gExpected :: Text
ShowDiffed	The two values are different, just show the given text to the user.
Fields gReason :: Maybe String gDiff :: Text

reading files

readFileMaybe :: FilePath -> IO (Maybe ByteString) Source

Read the file if it exists, else return Nothing. Useful for reading golden files.
