Pavlov.Case

Use this module to prepare other modules for testing.

Example

defmodule MySpec do
  use Pavlov.Case
  it "always passes" do
    assert true
  end
end

Summary

describe(desc, \\ {:_, [], Pavlov.Case}, pending \\ false, contents)

You can nest your tests under a descriptive name. Tests can be infinitely nested

it(desc, var \\ {:_, [], Pavlov.Case}, contents)

The cornerstone BDD macro, “it” allows your test to be defined via a string

let(name, contents)

Allows lazy initialization of subjects for your tests. Subjects created via “let” will never leak into other contexts (defined via “describe” or “context”), not even those who are children of the context where the lazy subject is defined

xdescribe(desc, \\ {:_, [], Pavlov.Case}, contents)

Defines a group of tests as pending. Any other contexts nested within an xdescribe will not run as well

xit(description, var \\ {:_, [], Pavlov.Case}, contents)

Allows you specify a pending test, meaning that it is never run

Macros

describe(desc, \\ {:_, [], Pavlov.Case}, pending \\ false, contents)

You can nest your tests under a descriptive name. Tests can be infinitely nested.

Source
it(desc, var \\ {:_, [], Pavlov.Case}, contents)

The cornerstone BDD macro, “it” allows your test to be defined via a string.

Example

it "is the truth" do
  assert true == true
end
Source
let(name, contents)

Allows lazy initialization of subjects for your tests. Subjects created via “let” will never leak into other contexts (defined via “describe” or “context”), not even those who are children of the context where the lazy subject is defined.

Example:

let :lazy do
  "oh so lazy"
end

it "lazy initializes" do
  assert lazy == "oh so lazy"
end
Source
xdescribe(desc, \\ {:_, [], Pavlov.Case}, contents)

Defines a group of tests as pending. Any other contexts nested within an xdescribe will not run as well.

Source
xit(description, var \\ {:_, [], Pavlov.Case}, contents)

Allows you specify a pending test, meaning that it is never run.

Example

xit "is the truth" do
  # This will never run
  assert true == true
end
