# 🔬 microtest [](https://github.com/Ragmaanir/microtest/actions/workflows/crystal.yml)
### Version 1.2.7
A small testing framework inspired by minitest/minitest.cr.
## Features
- This framework is opinionated
- It uses power asserts by default. There are no `assert_equals`, `assert_xyz`, just power asserts (except for `assert_raises`)
- It uses the spec syntax for test case structure (`describe`, `test`, `before`, `after`). Reasons: No test-case name-clashes when using describe. Not forgetting to call super in setup/teardown methods.
- No nesting of describe blocks. IMO nesting of those blocks is an anti-pattern.
- No let-definitions. Only before / after hooks. Use local variables mostly.
- Tests have to be started explicitly by `Microtest.run!`, no at-exit hook.
- Colorized and abbreviated exception stacktraces
- Randomized test order (SEED can be specified as environment variable)
- Focus individual tests (`test! "my test" do ...`)
- Different reportes (progress, descriptions, slow tests)
## Installation
Add this to your application's `shard.yml`:
```yaml
development_dependencies:
microtest:
github: ragmaanir/microtest
version: ~> 1.2.7
```
And add this to your `spec_helper.rb`:
```crystal
require "microtest"
include Microtest::DSL
Microtest.run!
```
## Usage
```crystal
class WaterPump
getter name : String
getter speed : Int32
getter? enabled : Bool = false
def initialize(@name, @speed = 10)
end
def enable
@enabled = true
end
end
describe WaterPump do
test "enabling" do
p = WaterPump.new("main")
p.enable
assert(p.enabled?)
end
test "pump speed" do
p = WaterPump.new("main", speed: 100)
assert(p.speed > 50)
end
test "this one is pending since it got no body"
pending "this one is pending even though it has a body" do
raise "should not raise"
end
end
```
Run the test with:
`crystal spec`
You can provide the seed to run the tests in the same order:
`SEED=123 crystal spec`
## Power Assert Output
```crystal
describe AssertionFailure do
test "assertion failure" do
a = 5
b = "aaaaaa"
assert "a" * a == b
end
end
```
Generates:
### Microtest Test Output (microtest tests using progress reporter)
## Reporters
Use common reporter combinations:
```crystal
# both versions include error-list-, slow-tests- and summary-reporters:
Microtest.run!(:progress)
Microtest.run!(:descriptions)
```
Or select the used reporters explicitly:
```crystal
Microtest.run!([
Microtest::DescriptionReporter.new,
Microtest::ErrorListReporter.new,
Microtest::SlowTestsReporter.new,
Microtest::SummaryReporter.new,
] of Microtest::Reporter)
```
```crystal
describe First do
test "success" do
end
test "skip this"
end
describe Second do
def raise_an_error
raise "Oh, this is wrong"
end
test "first failure" do
a = 5
b = 7
assert a == b * 2
end
test "error" do
raise_an_error
end
end
```
### Progress Reporter
### Description Reporter
### When focus active
```crystal
describe Focus do
test "not focused" do
end
test! "focused" do
end
test "focused too", :focus do
end
end
```
## Development
Run `./cli readme` to run tests and generate `README.md` from `README.md.ecr` and generate the images of the test outputs (using an alpine docker image).
