Distribution.TestSuite

This module defines the detailed test suite interface which makes it possible to expose individual tests to Cabal or other test agents.

data TestInstance

Constructors

TestInstance

Fields

• run :: IO Progress

  Perform the test.

• name :: String

  A name for the test, unique within a test suite.

• tags :: [String]

  Users can select groups of tests by their tags.

• options :: [OptionDescr]

  Descriptions of the options recognized by this test.

• setOption :: String -> String -> Either String TestInstance

  Try to set the named option to the given value. Returns an error message if the option is not supported or the value could not be correctly parsed; otherwise, a TestInstance with the option set to the given value is returned.

data OptionDescr

Constructors

OptionDescr

Fields

• optionName :: String
• optionDescription :: String

  A human-readable description of the option to guide the user setting it.

• optionType :: OptionType
• optionDefault :: Maybe String

Instances

Eq OptionDescr

Methods

(==) :: OptionDescr -> OptionDescr -> Bool

(/=) :: OptionDescr -> OptionDescr -> Bool

Read OptionDescr

Constructors

OptionFile

Fields

• optionFileMustExist :: Bool
• optionFileIsDir :: Bool
• optionFileExtensions :: [String]

OptionString

Fields

• optionStringMultiline :: Bool

OptionNumber

Fields

• optionNumberIsInt :: Bool
• optionNumberBounds :: (Maybe String, Maybe String)

Show OptionType

Methods

showsPrec :: Int -> OptionType -> ShowS

data Test

Constructors

Test TestInstance

Group

Fields

• groupName :: String
• concurrently :: Bool

  If true, then children of this group may be run in parallel. Note that this setting is not inherited by children. In particular, consider a group F with "concurrently = False" that has some children, including a group T with "concurrently = True". The children of group T may be run concurrently with each other, as long as none are run at the same time as any of the direct children of group F.

• groupTests :: [Test]

ExtraOptions [OptionDescr] Test

type Options = [(String, String)]

Finished Result

Progress String (IO Progress)

data Result

Constructors

Show Result

Methods

show :: Result -> String

showList :: [Result] -> ShowS

testGroup :: String -> [Test] -> Test

Create a named group of tests, which are assumed to be safe to run in parallel.
