Description

LeanCheck is a simple enumerative property-based testing library.

This is the core module of the library, with the most basic definitions. If you are looking just to use the library, import and see Test.LeanCheck.

If you want to understand how the code works, this is the place to start reading.

Synopsis

Checking and testing

holds :: Testable a => Int -> a -> Bool Source #

Does a property hold up to a number of test values?

holds 1000 $ \xs -> length (sort xs) == length xs

fails :: Testable a => Int -> a -> Bool Source #

Does a property fail for a number of test values?

fails 1000 $ \xs -> xs ++ ys == ys ++ xs

exists :: Testable a => Int -> a -> Bool Source #

There exists an assignment of values that satisfies a property up to a number of test values?

exists 1000 $ \x -> x > 10

counterExample :: Testable a => Int -> a -> Maybe [String] Source #

Up to a number of tests to a property, returns Just the first counter-example or Nothing if there is none.

counterExample 100 $ \xs -> [] `union` xs == (xs::[Int])
-- > Just ["[0,0]"]

counterExamples :: Testable a => Int -> a -> [[String]] Source #

Lists all counter-examples for a number of tests to a property,

witness :: Testable a => Int -> a -> Maybe [String] Source #

Up to a number of tests to a property, returns Just the first witness or Nothing if there is none.

witnesses :: Testable a => Int -> a -> [[String]] Source #

Lists all witnesses up to a number of tests to a property,

class Testable a Source #

Testable values are functions of Listable arguments that return boolean values, e.g.:

  •  Bool
  •  Listable a => a -> Bool
  •  Listable a => a -> a -> Bool
  •  Int -> Bool
  •  String -> [Int] -> Bool

Instances

Testable Bool Source # 

Methods

resultiers :: Bool -> [[([String], Bool)]]

(Testable b, Show a, Listable a) => Testable (a -> b) Source # 

Methods

resultiers :: (a -> b) -> [[([String], Bool)]]

results :: Testable a => a -> [([String], Bool)] Source #

List all results of a Testable property. Each result is a pair of a list of strings and a boolean. The list of strings is a printable representation of one possible choice of argument values for the property. Each boolean paired with such a list indicates whether the property holds for this choice. The outer list is potentially infinite and lazily evaluated.

Listing test values

class Listable a where Source #

A type is Listable when there exists a function that is able to list (ideally all of) its values.

Ideally, instances should be defined by a tiers function that returns a (potentially infinite) list of finite sub-lists (tiers): the first sub-list contains elements of size 0, the second sub-list contains elements of size 1 and so on. Size here is defined by the implementor of the type-class instance.

For algebraic data types, the general form for tiers is

tiers = cons<N> ConstructorA
     \/ cons<N> ConstructorB
     \/ ...
     \/ cons<N> ConstructorZ

where N is the number of arguments of each constructor A...Z.

Instances can be alternatively defined by list. In this case, each sub-list in tiers is a singleton list (each succeeding element of list has +1 size).

The function deriveListable from Test.LeanCheck.Derive can automatically derive instances of this typeclass.

A Listable instance for functions is also available but is not exported by default. Import Test.LeanCheck.Function if you need to test higher-order properties.

Methods

tiers :: [[(a, b, c, d, e)]] Source #

list :: [(a, b, c, d, e)] Source #

Constructing lists of tiers

cons0 :: a -> [[a]] Source #

Given a constructor with no arguments, returns tiers of all possible applications of this constructor. Since in this case there is only one possible application (to no arguments), only a single value, of size/weight 0, will be present in the resulting list of tiers.

cons1 :: Listable a => (a -> b) -> [[b]] Source #

Given a constructor with one Listable argument, return tiers of applications of this constructor. By default, returned values will have size/weight of 1.

cons2 :: (Listable a, Listable b) => (a -> b -> c) -> [[c]] Source #

Given a constructor with two Listable arguments, return tiers of applications of this constructor. By default, returned values will have size/weight of 1.

cons3 :: (Listable a, Listable b, Listable c) => (a -> b -> c -> d) -> [[d]] Source #

Returns tiers of applications of a 3-argument constructor.

cons4 :: (Listable a, Listable b, Listable c, Listable d) => (a -> b -> c -> d -> e) -> [[e]] Source #

Returns tiers of applications of a 4-argument constructor.

cons5 :: (Listable a, Listable b, Listable c, Listable d, Listable e) => (a -> b -> c -> d -> e -> f) -> [[f]] Source #

Returns tiers of applications of a 5-argument constructor.

Test.LeanCheck.Basic defines cons6 up to cons12. Those are exported by default from Test.LeanCheck, but are hidden from the Haddock documentation.

ofWeight :: [[a]] -> Int -> [[a]] Source #

Resets the weight of a constructor (or tiers) Typically used as an infix constructor when defining Listable instances:

cons<N> `ofWeight` <W>

Be careful: do not apply ofWeight 0 to recursive data structure constructors. In general this will make the list of size 0 infinite, breaking the tier invariant (each tier must be finite).

addWeight :: [[a]] -> Int -> [[a]] Source #

Adds to the weight of tiers of a constructor

suchThat :: [[a]] -> (a -> Bool) -> [[a]] Source #

Tiers of values that follow a property

cons<N> `suchThat` condition

Combining lists of tiers

(\/) :: [[a]] -> [[a]] -> [[a]] infixr 7 Source #

Append tiers --- sum of two tiers enumerations.

[xs,ys,zs,...] \/ [as,bs,cs,...] = [xs++as,ys++bs,zs++cs,...]

(\\//) :: [[a]] -> [[a]] -> [[a]] infixr 7 Source #

Interleave tiers --- sum of two tiers enumerations. When in doubt, use \/ instead.

[xs,ys,zs,...] \/ [as,bs,cs,...] = [xs+|as,ys+|bs,zs+|cs,...]

(><) :: [[a]] -> [[b]] -> [[(a, b)]] infixr 8 Source #

Take a tiered product of lists of tiers.

[t0,t1,t2,...] >< [u0,u1,u2,...] =
[ t0**u0
, t0**u1 ++ t1**u0
, t0**u2 ++ t1**u1 ++ t2**u0
, ...       ...       ...       ...
]
where xs ** ys = [(x,y) | x <- xs, y <- ys]

Example:

[[0],[1],[2],...] >< [[0],[1],[2],...]
== [  [(0,0)]
   ,  [(1,0),(0,1)]
   ,  [(2,0),(1,1),(0,2)]
   ,  [(3,0),(2,1),(1,2),(0,3)]
   ...
   ]

productWith :: (a -> b -> c) -> [[a]] -> [[b]] -> [[c]] Source #

Take a tiered product of lists of tiers. productWith can be defined by ><, as:

productWith f xss yss = map (uncurry f) $ xss >< yss

Manipulating lists of tiers

mapT :: (a -> b) -> [[a]] -> [[b]] Source #

map over tiers

filterT :: (a -> Bool) -> [[a]] -> [[a]] Source #

filter tiers

concatT :: [[[[a]]]] -> [[a]] Source #

concat tiers of tiers

concatMapT :: (a -> [[b]]) -> [[a]] -> [[b]] Source #

concatMap over tiers

toTiers :: [a] -> [[a]] Source #

Takes a list of values xs and transform it into tiers on which each tier is occupied by a single element from xs.

To convert back to a list, just concat.

Boolean (property) operators

(==>) :: Bool -> Bool -> Bool infixr 0 Source #

Boolean implication operator. Useful for defining conditional properties:

prop_something x y = condition x y ==> something x y

Misc utilities

(+|) :: [a] -> [a] -> [a] infixr 5 Source #

Lazily interleaves two lists, switching between elements of the two. Union/sum of the elements in the lists.

[x,y,z] +| [a,b,c] == [x,a,y,b,z,c]

listIntegral :: (Enum a, Num a) => [a] Source #

Tiers of Integral values. Can be used as a default implementation of list for Integral types.

tiersFractional :: Fractional a => [[a]] Source #

Tiers of Fractional values. This can be used as the implementation of tiers for Fractional types.
