Assertions

Flexible assertions on top of the XP Framework's unittest package.

Example

use unittest\assert\{Assert, All};

class ExampleTest {

  #[@test]
  public function succeeds() {
    Assert::that(['The Dude'])->hasSize(1)->contains('The Dude');
  }

  #[@test]
  public function fails() {
    All::of(function() { 
      Assert::that('localhost')->startsWith('www');
      Assert::that('example.com')->endsWith('.org');
    });
  }
}

Running this test will yield one succeeded and one failed test. The difference to regular unittest messages is the more readable format.

On top of that, this library's assertions are also more flexible: As seen in the above case, we wrapped the chain in an All::of() call which will yield all failed assertions, not just the first one.

Assertions

Generic assertions:

• is(unittest.assert.Condition $condition) - Asserts a given condition matches
• isNot(unittest.assert.Condition $condition) - Asserts a given condition does not match
• isEqualTo(var $compare) - Asserts the value is equal to a given comparison
• isNotEqualTo(var $compare) - Asserts the value is not equal to a given comparison
• isNull() - Asserts the value is null
• isTrue() - Asserts the value is true
• isFalse() - Asserts the value is false
• isIn(var $enumerable) - Asserts the value is in a given enumerable
• isNotIn(var $enumerable) - Asserts the value is not in a given enumerable
• isInstanceOf(string|lang.Type $type) - Asserts the value is of a given type

With special meanings dependant on type:

• isEmpty() - Asserts a string, array or map is empty
• hasSize(int $size) - Asserts a string length, array or map size
• startsWith(var $element) - Asserts a string or array contains the given element at its start
• endsWith(var $element) - Asserts a string or array contains the given element at its end
• contains(var $element) - Asserts a string, array or map contains a given element
• doesNotContain(var $element) - Asserts a string, array or map does not contain a given element

For numbers:

• isGreaterThan(int|double $comparison) - Asserts value > comparison
• isLessThan(int|double $comparison) - Asserts value < comparison
• isBetween(int|double $start, int|double $end) - Asserts value >= start && value <= end
• isCloseTo(int|double $comparison, int|double $tolerance) - Asserts value is close (defined per tolerance)

Transformations

Values can be transformed prior to invoking assertions on them.

Extraction works directly on instances (using properties and get-prefixed as well as plain getters):

$tim= new Person(6100, 'Tim Tailor');
Assert::that($tim)->extracting('name')->isEqualTo('Tim Tailor');

You can also pass a closure to control more precisely what's extracted:

$tim= new Person(6100, 'Tim Tailor');
Assert::that($tim)->extracting(function($p) { return $p->name(); })->isEqualTo('Tim Tailor');

For maps, extraction accesses the elements by their string keys:

$person= ['id' => 6100, 'name' => 'Test', 'age' => 42];
Assert::that($person)->extracting('age')->isEqualTo(42);

Passing an array to extracting() will extract multiple elements and return them in an array in the order they're passed:

$person= ['id' => 6100, 'name' => 'Test', 'age' => 42];
Assert::that($person)->extracting(['name', 'age'])->isEqualTo(['Test', 42]);

Passing maps to extracting() will extract multiple elements and return them in a map.

$person= ['id' => 6100, 'name' => 'Test', 'age' => 42];
Assert::that($person)->extracting(['identifier' => 'id'])->isEqualTo(['identifier' => 6100]);

For arrays, the extracting() method applies the extraction on every element:

$people= [new Person(1, 'Queen'), new Person(2, 'King')];
Assert::that($people)->extracting('name')->isEqualTo(['Queen', 'King']);
