stdArgs :: ArgsSource

The default test arguments

quickCheckWith :: Testable prop => Args -> prop -> IO ()Source

Tests a property, using test arguments, and prints the results to stdout.

quickCheckWithResult :: Testable prop => Args -> prop -> IO ResultSource

Tests a property, using test arguments, produces a test result, and prints the results to stdout.

quickCheckResult :: Testable prop => prop -> IO ResultSource

Tests a property, produces a test result, and prints the results to stdout.

Running tests verbosely

verboseCheck :: Testable prop => prop -> IO ()Source

Tests a property and prints the results and all test cases generated to stdout. This is just a convenience function that means the same as quickCheck . verbose.

verboseCheckWith :: Testable prop => Args -> prop -> IO ()Source

Tests a property, using test arguments, and prints the results and all test cases generated to stdout. This is just a convenience function that combines quickCheckWith and verbose.

verboseCheckWithResult :: Testable prop => Args -> prop -> IO ResultSource

Tests a property, using test arguments, produces a test result, and prints the results and all test cases generated to stdout. This is just a convenience function that combines quickCheckWithResult and verbose.

verboseCheckResult :: Testable prop => prop -> IO ResultSource

Tests a property, produces a test result, and prints the results and all test cases generated to stdout. This is just a convenience function that combines quickCheckResult and verbose.

Testing all properties in a module

quickCheckAll :: Q ExpSource

Test all properties in the current module. The name of the property must begin with prop_. Polymorphic properties will be defaulted to Integer. Returns True if all tests succeeded, False otherwise.

To use quickCheckAll, add a definition to your module along the lines of

 return []
 runTests = $quickCheckAll

and then execute runTests.

Note: the bizarre return [] in the example above is needed on GHC 7.8; without it, quickCheckAll will not be able to find any of the properties. For the curious, the return [] is a Template Haskell splice that makes GHC insert the empty list of declarations at that point in the program; GHC typechecks everything before the return [] before it starts on the rest of the module, which means that the later call to quickCheckAll can see everything that was defined before the return []. Yikes!

verboseCheckAll :: Q ExpSource

Test all properties in the current module. This is just a convenience function that combines quickCheckAll and verbose.

verboseCheckAll has the same issue with scoping as quickCheckAll: see the note there about return [].

forAllProperties :: Q ExpSource

Test all properties in the current module, using a custom quickCheck function. The same caveats as with quickCheckAll apply.

$forAllProperties has type (Property -> IO Result) -> IO Bool. An example invocation is $forAllProperties quickCheckResult, which does the same thing as $quickCheckAll.

forAllProperties has the same issue with scoping as quickCheckAll: see the note there about return [].

Testing polymorphic properties

polyQuickCheck :: Name -> ExpQSource

Test a polymorphic property, defaulting all type variables to Integer.

Invoke as $(polyQuickCheck 'prop), where prop is a property. Note that just evaluating quickCheck prop in GHCi will seem to work, but will silently default all type variables to ()!

$(polyQuickCheck 'prop) means the same as quickCheck $(monomorphic 'prop). If you want to supply custom arguments to polyQuickCheck, you will have to combine quickCheckWith and monomorphic yourself.

If you want to use polyQuickCheck in the same file where you defined the property, the same scoping problems pop up as in quickCheckAll: see the note there about return [].

polyVerboseCheck :: Name -> ExpQSource

Test a polymorphic property, defaulting all type variables to Integer. This is just a convenience function that combines verboseCheck and monomorphic.

If you want to use polyVerboseCheck in the same file where you defined the property, the same scoping problems pop up as in quickCheckAll: see the note there about return [].

monomorphic :: Name -> ExpQSource

Monomorphise an arbitrary property by defaulting all type variables to Integer.

For example, if f has type Ord a => [a] -> [a] then $(monomorphic 'f) has type [Integer] -> [Integer].

If you want to use monomorphic in the same file where you defined the property, the same scoping problems pop up as in quickCheckAll: see the note there about return [].

Random generation

data Gen a Source

A generator for values of type a.

Instances

Generator combinators

choose :: Random a => (a, a) -> Gen aSource

Generates a random element in the given inclusive range.

oneof :: [Gen a] -> Gen aSource

Randomly uses one of the given generators. The input list must be non-empty.

frequency :: [(Int, Gen a)] -> Gen aSource

Chooses one of the given generators, with a weighted random distribution. The input list must be non-empty.

elements :: [a] -> Gen aSource

Generates one of the given values. The input list must be non-empty.

growingElements :: [a] -> Gen aSource

Takes a list of elements of increasing size, and chooses among an initial segment of the list. The size of this initial segment increases with the size parameter. The input list must be non-empty.

sized :: (Int -> Gen a) -> Gen aSource

Used to construct generators that depend on the size parameter.

Arbitrary and CoArbitrary classes

class Arbitrary a whereSource

Random generation and shrinking of values.

Methods

arbitrary :: Gen aSource

A generator for values of the given type.

shrink :: a -> [a]Source

Produces a (possibly) empty list of all the possible immediate shrinks of the given value. The default implementation returns the empty list, so will not try to shrink the value.

Most implementations of shrink should try at least three things:

  1. Shrink a term to any of its immediate subterms.
  2. Recursively apply shrink to all immediate subterms.
  3. Type-specific shrinkings such as replacing a constructor by a simpler constructor.

For example, suppose we have the following implementation of binary trees:

 data Tree a = Nil | Branch a (Tree a) (Tree a)

We can then define shrink as follows:

 shrink Nil = []
 shrink (Branch x l r) =
   -- shrink Branch to Nil
   [Nil] ++
   -- shrink to subterms
   [l, r] ++
   -- recursively shrink subterms
   [Branch x' l' r' | (x', l', r') <- shrink (x, l, r)]

There are a couple of subtleties here:

  • QuickCheck tries the shrinking candidates in the order they appear in the list, so we put more aggressive shrinking steps (such as replacing the whole tree by Nil) before smaller ones (such as recursively shrinking the subtrees).
  • It is tempting to write the last line as [Branch x' l' r' | x' <- shrink x, l' <- shrink l, r' <- shrink r] but this is the wrong thing! It will force QuickCheck to shrink x, l and r in tandem, and shrinking will stop once one of the three is fully shrunk.

There is a fair bit of boilerplate in the code above. We can avoid it with the help of some generic functions; note that these only work on GHC 7.2 and above. The function genericShrink tries shrinking a term to all of its subterms and, failing that, recursively shrinks the subterms. Using it, we can define shrink as:

 shrink x = shrinkToNil x ++ genericShrink x
   where
     shrinkToNil Nil = []
     shrinkToNil (Branch _ l r) = [Nil]

genericShrink is a combination of subterms, which shrinks a term to any of its subterms, and recursivelyShrink, which shrinks all subterms of a term. These may be useful if you need a bit more control over shrinking than genericShrink gives you.

A final gotcha: we cannot define shrink as simply shrink x = Nil:genericShrink x as this shrinks Nil to Nil, and shrinking will go into an infinite loop.

If all this leaves you bewildered, you might try shrink = genericShrink to begin with, after deriving Generic and Typeable for your type. However, if your data type has any special invariants, you will need to check that genericShrink can't break those invariants.

class CoArbitrary a whereSource

Used for random generation of functions.

Methods

coarbitrary :: a -> Gen b -> Gen bSource

Used to generate a function of type a -> b. The first argument is a value, the second a generator. You should use variant to perturb the random generator; the goal is that different values for the first argument will lead to different calls to variant. An example will help:

 instance CoArbitrary a => CoArbitrary [a] where
   coarbitrary []     = variant 0
   coarbitrary (x:xs) = variant 1 . coarbitrary (x,xs)

Helper functions for implementing arbitrary

arbitrarySizedIntegral :: Integral a => Gen aSource

Generates an integral number. The number can be positive or negative and its maximum absolute value depends on the size parameter.

arbitrarySizedFractional :: Fractional a => Gen aSource

Generates a fractional number. The number can be positive or negative and its maximum absolute value depends on the size parameter.

arbitrarySizedBoundedIntegral :: (Bounded a, Integral a) => Gen aSource

Generates an integral number from a bounded domain. The number is chosen from the entire range of the type, but small numbers are generated more often than big numbers. Inspired by demands from Phil Wadler.

arbitraryBoundedIntegral :: (Bounded a, Integral a) => Gen aSource

Generates an integral number. The number is chosen uniformly from the entire range of the type. You may want to use arbitrarySizedBoundedIntegral instead.

Instances

class ShrinkState s a whereSource

Methods

Properties

data Property Source

The type of properties.

Backwards combatibility note: in older versions of QuickCheck Property was a type synonym for Gen Prop, so you could mix and match property combinators and Gen monad operations. Code that does this will no longer typecheck. However, it is easy to fix: because of the Testable typeclass, any combinator that expects a Property will also accept a Gen Property. If you have a Property where you need a Gen a, simply wrap the property combinator inside a return to get a Gen Property, and all should be well.

Instances

class Testable prop whereSource

The class of things which can be tested, i.e. turned into a property.

Methods

property :: prop -> PropertySource

Convert the thing to a property.

exhaustive :: prop -> BoolSource

If true, the property will only be tested once. However, if used inside a quantifier, it will be tested normally.

Property combinators

forAll :: (Show a, Testable prop) => Gen a -> (a -> prop) -> PropertySource

Explicit universal quantification: uses an explicitly given test case generator.

forAllShrink :: (Show a, Testable prop) => Gen a -> (a -> [a]) -> (a -> prop) -> PropertySource

Like forAll, but tries to shrink the argument for failing test cases.

shrinkingSource

Arguments

:: Testable prop 
=> (a -> [a])

shrink-like function.

-> a

The original argument

-> (a -> prop) 
-> Property 

Shrinks the argument to property if it fails. Shrinking is done automatically for most types. This is only needed when you want to override the default behavior.

(==>) :: Testable prop => Bool -> prop -> PropertySource

Implication for properties: The resulting property holds if the first argument is False (in which case the test case is discarded), or if the given property holds.

(===) :: (Eq a, Show a) => a -> a -> PropertySource

Like ==, but prints a counterexample when it fails.

ioProperty :: Testable prop => IO prop -> PropertySource

Do I/O inside a property. This can obviously lead to unrepeatable testcases, so use with care.

For more advanced monadic testing you may want to look at Test.QuickCheck.Monadic.

Controlling property execution

verbose :: Testable prop => prop -> PropertySource

Prints out the generated testcase every time the property is tested. Only variables quantified over inside the verbose are printed.

once :: Testable prop => prop -> PropertySource

Modifies a property so that it only will be tested once.

within :: Testable prop => Int -> prop -> PropertySource

Considers a property failed if it does not complete within the given number of microseconds.

noShrinking :: Testable prop => prop -> PropertySource

Disables shrinking for a property altogether.

Conjunction and disjunction

(.&.) :: (Testable prop1, Testable prop2) => prop1 -> prop2 -> PropertySource

Nondeterministic choice: p1 .&. p2 picks randomly one of p1 and p2 to test. If you test the property 100 times it makes 100 random choices.

(.&&.) :: (Testable prop1, Testable prop2) => prop1 -> prop2 -> PropertySource

Conjunction: p1 .&&. p2 passes if both p1 and p2 pass.

conjoin :: Testable prop => [prop] -> PropertySource

Take the conjunction of several properties.

(.||.) :: (Testable prop1, Testable prop2) => prop1 -> prop2 -> PropertySource

Disjunction: p1 .||. p2 passes unless p1 and p2 simultaneously fail.

disjoin :: Testable prop => [prop] -> PropertySource

Take the disjunction of several properties.

What to do on failure

counterexample :: Testable prop => String -> prop -> PropertySource

Adds the given string to the counterexample.

printTestCase :: Testable prop => String -> prop -> PropertySource

Deprecated: Use counterexample instead

Adds the given string to the counterexample.

whenFail :: Testable prop => IO () -> prop -> PropertySource

Performs an IO action after the last failure of a property.

whenFail' :: Testable prop => IO () -> prop -> PropertySource

Performs an IO action every time a property fails. Thus, if shrinking is done, this can be used to keep track of the failures along the way.

expectFailure :: Testable prop => prop -> PropertySource

Indicates that a property is supposed to fail. QuickCheck will report an error if it does not fail.

Analysing test distribution

label :: Testable prop => String -> prop -> PropertySource

Attaches a label to a property. This is used for reporting test case distribution.

collect :: (Show a, Testable prop) => a -> prop -> PropertySource

Labels a property with a value:

 collect x = label (show x)

classifySource

Arguments

:: Testable prop 
=> Bool

True if the test case should be labelled.

-> String

Label.

-> prop 
-> Property 

Conditionally labels test case.

coverSource

Arguments

:: Testable prop 
=> Bool

True if the test case belongs to the class.

-> Int

The required percentage (0-100) of test cases.

-> String

Label for the test case class.

-> prop 
-> Property 

Checks that at least the given proportion of the test cases belong to the given class.

Miscellaneous

data Discard Source

If a property returns Discard, the current test case is discarded, the same as if a precondition was false.

Constructors

Discard 

Instances

discard :: aSource

A special exception that makes QuickCheck discard the test case. Normally you should use ==>, but if for some reason this isn't possible (e.g. you are deep inside a generator), use discard instead.

mapSize :: Testable prop => (Int -> Int) -> prop -> PropertySource

Changes the maximum test case size for a property.
