tasty-auto: Simple auto discovery for Tasty

This package provides auto discovery for the tasty test framework.

• Install tasty-auto (using cabal or stack)

• Create a file test/test.hs

-- test/test.hs
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -F -pgmF tasty-auto #-}

• Put your tests in files with the suffix *Test.hs or *Spec.hs. Functions with the following prefixes are automatically discovered:

• prop_ for QuickCheck properties

• scprop_ for SmallCheck properties

• case_ for HUnit test cases (overloaded for IO (), IO String and (String -> IO ()) -> IO)

• spec_ for Hspec specifications

• test_ for Tasty TestTrees (overloaded for TestTree, [TestTree], IO TestTree and IO [TestTree])

Examples

QuickCheck

-- test/PropTest.hs
module PropTest where

prop_Addition_is_commutative :: Int -> Int -> Bool
prop_Addition_is_commutative a b = a + b == b + a

HUnit

-- test/CaseTest.hs
module CaseTest where

import Test.Tasty.HUnit

case_List_comparison_with_different_length :: IO ()
case_List_comparison_with_different_length = [1, 2, 3] `compare` [1,2] @?= GT

Hspec

-- test/TestSpec.hs
module TestSpec where

import Test.Tasty.Hspec

spec_Prelude :: Spec
spec_Prelude = do
  describe "Prelude.head" $ do
    it "returns the first element of a list" $ do
      head [23 ..] `shouldBe` (23 :: Int)

Test trees

-- test/TreeTest.hs
{-# LANGUAGE ScopedTypeVariables #-}
module TreeTest where

import Test.Tasty
import Test.Tasty.QuickCheck
import Test.Tasty.HUnit

test_Addition :: TestTree
test_Addition = testProperty "Addition commutes" $ \(a :: Int) (b :: Int) -> a + b == b + a

test_Multiplication :: [TestTree]
test_Multiplication =
  [ testProperty "Multiplication commutes" $ \(a :: Int) (b :: Int) -> a * b == b * a
  , testProperty "One is identity" $ \(a :: Int) -> a * 1 == a
  ]

test_Generate_Tree :: IO TestTree
test_Generate_Tree = do
  input <- pure "Some input"
  pure $ testCase input $ pure ()

test_Generate_Trees :: IO [TestTree]
test_Generate_Trees = do
  inputs <- pure ["First input", "Second input"]
  pure $ map (\s -> testCase s $ pure ()) inputs

Configuration options

You can add tasty ingredients with the -optF option:

-- test/test.hs
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -F -pgmF tasty-auto -optF --ingredient=Test.Tasty.Runners.Html.htmlRunner -optF --ingredient=Test.Tasty.Runners.AntXML.antXMLRunner #-}

It is possible to configure the name of the generated module, if you want to import the module somewhere.

-- test/AutoTests.hs
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -F -pgmF tasty-auto -optF --module=AutoTests #-}

Generated code

The generated code of the preprocessor looks like this:

{-# LINE 1 "test/test.hs" #-}
{-# LANGUAGE FlexibleInstances #-}
