ExUnit.Filters (ExUnit v1.18.3)

View Source

Conveniences for parsing and evaluating filters.

Summary

Functions

Evaluates the include and exclude filters against the given tags to determine if tests should be skipped or excluded.

Marks the whole suite as failed in the manifest.

Returns failure information from the manifest file.

Normalizes include and exclude filters to remove duplicates and keep precedence.

Parses the given filters, as one would receive from the command line.

Parses filters out of a path.

Like parse_path/1 but for multiple paths.

Types

ex_unit_opts()

@type ex_unit_opts() :: [exclude: [:test], include: [location(), ...]] | []

location()

@type location() :: {:location, {String.t(), pos_integer() | [pos_integer(), ...]}}

t()

@type t() :: [{atom(), Regex.t() | String.Chars.t()} | atom()]

Functions

eval(include, exclude, tags, collection)

@spec eval(t(), t(), map(), [ExUnit.Test.t()]) ::
  :ok | {:excluded, String.t()} | {:skipped, String.t()}

Evaluates the include and exclude filters against the given tags to determine if tests should be skipped or excluded.

Some filters, like :line, may require the whole test collection to find the closest line, that's why it must also be passed as an argument.

Filters can either be a regular expression or any data structure that implements the String.Chars protocol, which is invoked before comparing the filter with the :tag value.

Precedence

Tests are first excluded, then included, and then skipped (if any left).

If a :skip tag is found in tags, {:skipped, message} is returned if the test has been left after the exclude and include filters. Otherwise {:exclude, message} is returned.

The only exception to this rule is that :skip is found in the include filter, :ok is returned regardless of whether the test was excluded or not.

Examples

iex> ExUnit.Filters.eval([foo: "bar"], [:foo], %{foo: "bar"}, [])
:ok

iex> ExUnit.Filters.eval([foo: "bar"], [:foo], %{foo: "baz"}, [])
{:excluded, "due to foo filter"}

fail_all!(manifest_file)

@spec fail_all!(Path.t()) :: :ok

Marks the whole suite as failed in the manifest.

This is useful when the test suite cannot be loaded and there is a desire to make all tests fail.

failure_info(manifest_file)

@spec failure_info(Path.t()) ::
  {MapSet.t(Path.t()), MapSet.t(ExUnit.test_id())} | :all

Returns failure information from the manifest file.

It returns either :all, meaning all tests should be considered as stale, or a tuple containing:

  • A set of files that contain tests that failed the last time they ran. The paths are absolute paths.

  • A set of test IDs that failed the last time they ran

normalize(include, exclude)

@spec normalize(t() | nil, t() | nil) :: {t(), t()}

Normalizes include and exclude filters to remove duplicates and keep precedence.

Examples

iex> ExUnit.Filters.normalize(nil, nil)
{[], []}

iex> ExUnit.Filters.normalize([:foo, :bar, :bar], [:foo, :baz])
{[:foo, :bar], [:baz]}

iex> ExUnit.Filters.normalize([foo: "true"], [:foo])
{[foo: "true"], [:foo]}

iex> ExUnit.Filters.normalize([:foo], [foo: "true"])
{[:foo], []}

iex> ExUnit.Filters.normalize([foo: "true"], [foo: true])
{[foo: "true"], []}

iex> ExUnit.Filters.normalize([foo: true], [foo: "true"])
{[foo: true], []}

iex> ExUnit.Filters.normalize([foo: 1, foo: 1, foo: 2], [])
{[foo: 1, foo: 2], []}

iex> ExUnit.Filters.normalize([], [foo: 1, foo: 1, foo: 2])
{[], [foo: 1, foo: 2]}

parse(filters)

@spec parse([String.t()]) :: t()

Parses the given filters, as one would receive from the command line.

Examples

iex> ExUnit.Filters.parse(["foo:bar", "baz", "line:9", "bool:true"])
[{:foo, "bar"}, :baz, {:line, 9}, {:bool, "true"}]

parse_path(file_path)

@spec parse_path(String.t()) :: {String.t(), ex_unit_opts()}

Parses filters out of a path.

Determines whether a given file path (supplied to ExUnit/Mix as arguments on the command line) includes a line number filter, and if so returns the appropriate ExUnit configuration options.

parse_paths(file_paths)

@spec parse_paths([String.t()]) :: {[String.t()], ex_unit_opts()}

Like parse_path/1 but for multiple paths.

ExUnit filter options are combined.
