# simple_test

A powerful, minimalist and easy-to-use Lua unit testing framework.

[![Build

Status](https://travis-ci.org/EvandroLG/simple_test.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/EvandroLG/simple_test)

## Installation

To install `simple_test`, simply run:

```sh

$ luarocks install simple_test

```

Or copy the `simple_test.lua` file and paste in your project :)

## Getting started

A minimal test setup:

```lua

local test = require 'simple_test'

test('assert.equal', function(a)

  a.ok(1 == 1, 'passed!')

end)

```

## asserts

* assert.ok(test, [failure_message])


Checks if `test` is true.

* assert.not_ok(test, [failure_message])


Checks if `test` is false.

* assert.equal(actual, expected, [failure_message])


Tests if `actual` is equal `expected`.

* assert.not_equal(actual, expected, [failure_message])


Checks if `actual` is not equal `expected`.

* assert.throw(function, params, [raised_message], [failure_message])


Checks if a `function` throws an exception and optionally compare the throw error.

* assert.delta(actual_float, expected_float, [delta], [failure_message])


Checks if `actual_float` and `expected_float` are equal within optional `delta` tolerance

* assert.deep_equal(actual, expected, [failure_message])


Tests for deep equality between the `actual` and `expected` parameters.
