5.1 Public Interface


5.1.1 Special variables

Special Variable: *abort-on-timeout-p*

Whether the implementation should try to abort tests that exceed their time-limit.

This defaults to NIL and will only abort on supported
implementations. Note that using this switch will basically cause
unwinds to happen whenever the time limit exceeds, which can cause all
sorts of problems, as it is unpredictable exactly where in the code it
occurs.

See TIME-LIMIT

Package

parachute.

Source

test.lisp.

Special Variable: *context*

Variable storing the current context of the evaluation.

While EVAL-IN-CONTEXT already carries the context as an argument, in certain situations like when opaque functions are evaluated, testers within the execution context must be able to access the context object in order to evaluate properly.

Package

Special Variable: *fixture-captures*

A map of names to fixture capture functions.

Special Variable: *parent*

Variable storing the immediate parent in the current evaluation context.

This is used in order to register a result within its parent.

Special Variable: *silence-plain-compilation-errors-p*

Whether PLAIN report should silence errors.

See DEFINE-TEST+RUN

Package

Special Variable: *status-indicators*

A plist which maps status values to a strings used in reports. Should have the status values of :passed, :failed, :skipped, :tentative and :unknown.

toolkit.lisp.


5.1.2 Macros

Macro: define-fixture-capture (name args &body body)

Defines a capture function to fix a symbol binding.

A capture function should take a symbol and return a value to capture for it, and T as the secondary value if anything should be captured at all for the kind of binding the function handles.

See *FIXTURE-CAPTURES*

Package

parachute.

Source

fixture.lisp.

Macro: define-fixture-restore (name args &body body)

Defines a restore function to fix a symbol binding.

A restoration function should take a symbol and a value and make sure to restore the binding it handles to the given value.

See *FIXTURE-RESTORES*

Package

parachute.

Source

fixture.lisp.

Macro: define-test (name &body arguments-and-body)

Defines a test.

NAME can be either a string, a symbol, or a list of a parent name and a name.

BODY ::= KARG* form*
KARG ::= keyword expression

Each karg in the body is used as an initialization argument to the test instance with the exception of :TEST-CLASS, which is used as the class-name to create a test instance with and defaults to TEST. The values of the keyword arguments are always passed quoted.

If you set a parent in the NAME, you cannot use the :PARENT karg and vice- versa. The following initargs are automatically always passed by DEFINE-TEST and should thus not appear as a karg: :NAME :TESTS :PARENT

You can define child tests within the body of the test if they appear as "toplevel" forms. They will be taken out of the body forms and emitted
as definition forms after the parent form, with the parent automatically set appropriately. As such, subtests defined in this manner cannot cause any effects on the surrounding environment.

Each form within the body will be turned into a separate test function. This is done so that the tests can be shuffled randomly if the test is not set as serial. This means that if you need to wrap multiple testers in any other form, the inner tests cannot be shuffled accordingly. However, you can use the WITH-SHUFFLING macro.

The karg :COMPILE-AT directs whether each test form should be compiled at definition time (default, value :COMPILE-TIME) or at test evaluation time (value :EXECUTE). The latter is achieved by, instead of a straight-up LAMBDA for each test form, it wraps it in a LAMBDA that calls COMPILE on the source form.

The karg :PARENT can be either a test designator, or a list of a package designator and a test name. The latter case allows you to set the test of another home package as the parent, useful if you split your tests across multiple packages.

Note that the dependencies of the test can be a combined by logic operators of :AND :OR and :NOT. See REFERENCED-DEPENDENCIES for the necessary structure.

The karg :DEFUN directs whether a simple function definition should be emitted alongside the test definition, which simply calls TEST on the defined test. The function name will be the same as the test name
interned into the current package, and transformed according to the current readtable case. The emitted function will accept the same
keyword arguments as TEST.

If the test object to be defined already exists, the existing instance is updated as necessary instead of creating a new one. The update proceeds in two steps: If the requested :TEST-CLASS is different from the instance’s class the disparity is attempted to be reconciled through CHANGE-CLASS. The instance’s fields are then always updated via REINITIALIZE-INSTANCE. This should ensure that, in the normal case of redefining tests via DEFINE-TEST, test objects returned by FIND-TEST are EQ to each other under the same arguments.

See TEST
See FIND-TEST
See REMOVE-TEST
See REFERENCED-DEPENDENCIES

Package

parachute.

Source

test.lisp.

Macro: define-test+run (name &body args-and-body)

Pass NAME with ARGS-AND-BODY to DEFINE-TEST and, if the form is executed
(as opposed to being loaded or compiled), run the test and return a plain report. In case of failure, a list of all failed expressions is returned as the second value. Useful for interactivity: define and run the test at once and get the relevant information. Compilation errors are not muffled when running.

If you wrap this in your own macro and want to avoid test execution on project load/compilation, make sure to make the form toplevel and also use (eval-when :compile-toplevel :load-toplevel) to define the test, and (eval-when :execute) to run this macro.

Macro: is-values (form &body body)

A tester that succeeds if each value the form returns is equal to the corresponding expected value under the corresponding comparator.

The body consists of lists of two values, the first being the comparator,
the second being the expected value. A third, ignored value can be
supplied as well for aesthetic purposes.

Package

parachute.

Source

tester.lisp.

Macro: skip-on (features desc &body tests)

Skips the tests in the body if any of the given feature expressions match.

If one of the feature expression matches, the evaluation of the tests in the body is skipped and the status of these tests is forced to :SKIPPED. Otherwise, the tests are evaluated as normal.

Note that if you have tests that will not /compile/ on a given feature combination, you still need to exclude those tests with reader conditionals as well.

Macro: with-forced-status ((status &optional description &rest format-args) &body tests)

Forces the requested status upon the tests in the body without evaluating any value-results.

Package

parachute.

Source

tester.lisp.

Macro: with-shuffling (&body body)

Causes each form in the body to be evaluated in random order each time the with-shuffling form is evaluated.

This is done by taking each form, wrapping it in a lambda, shuffling the list of
lambdas, and then funcalling each in the shuffled order.

5.1.3 Ordinary functions

Function: call-with-fixtures (function fixtures)

Calls the function with the given list of fixtures.

This ensures that the values are stored before the function is called and restored once the function is completed.

See CAPTURE-FIXTURES
See RESTORE-FIXTURES
See WITH-FIXTURE

Package

parachute.

Source

fixture.lisp.

Function: capture-fixtures (fixture)

Returns a list of fixtures for the given kind.

If the given name is a symbol that is not a keyword and has a package associated with it, then a list of a single fixture that captures every appropriate binding for the symbol is returned. Otherwise the name is interpreted as a package for which a list of fixtures for every symbol accessible in the package is returned.

See RESTORE-FIXTURES
See PACKAGE-FIXTURES
See DEFINE-FIXTURE-CAPTURE

Package

parachute.

Source

fixture.lisp.

Function: featurep (expr)

Returns T if the given feature expression matches the set of *FEATURES*

The expression follows the standard feature syntax. See 24.1.2.1 in the CLHS.

Package

parachute.

Source

toolkit.lisp.

Function: find-test (name &optional package-ish)

Finds the test by name if possible.

If the name is a symbol, the package defaults to the symbol’s package. If the name is a string, the package defaults to *PACKAGE*.
If no explicit package has been given and no test has been found, the search is automatically retried with the package set to *PACKAGE*. This should avoid confusion in the case of imported symbols and tests defined under the local package.

This function can also be used as a place in order to register a test. When a test is set, the preexisting test if any is first removed by REMOVE-TEST. This ensures that potentially removed options need to be properly updated within other affected tests. After that, the test is added to the list of children within its parent, if one is set. Finally the test is registered within the test index.

test.lisp.

Function: remove-test (name &optional package-ish)

Removes the test by name if possible.

When a test is removed, it is also automatically removed from its parent’s child list. However, weak references such as within a test’s dependencies cannot be updated as there is no backreference.

Function: test (designator &rest args &key report &allow-other-keys)

Run a test.

DESIGNATOR is resolved to a list of tests to run under a single report. You can specify the report class by the REPORT keyword argument. All other arguments are used as initargs for the REPORT creation.

After the report has been created, each test is run via EVAL-IN-CONTEXT. Finally SUMMARIZE is called on the report.

Package

parachute.

Source

report.lisp.

Function: test-packages ()

Returns a list of all packages that define tests.

See *TEST-INDEXES*

Package

parachute.

Source

test.lisp.

Function: test-toplevel (designator/s &rest args)

Run tests as the toplevel.

This function calls TEST for each of the given test/s and the provided arguments. Once all tests have been completed, it will cause the implementation to quit.

The exit code will be 100 if any of the tests failed, and 0
if all of them passed. This is useful for cases like in automated continuous integration environments where the exit code determines success or failure of the build.

Class: controlling-result

A result that will force a status upon the tests run in its body without performing the tests for real.

This works through a hack, at this point. When the controlling-result
is evaluated, it binds *CONTEXT* to itself and *REAL-CONTEXT* to the
actual context. It then calls the BODY.

When a result is evaluated within its body, it then ADD-RESULTs that
to the real context. If it is a value-result, the body function thereof
is replaced by a function that changes the result’s status to whatever
CHILD-STATUS is. It then evaluates the value-result in the real context.
Once that returns, the value-result’s value slot is made unbound again.

An error will be signalled, if a parent is designated that does not exist, and warnings will be signalled if dependencies are designated that do not exist.

Class: test-result

A result object for tests.

This takes care of properly evaluating the test by following these steps: 1. Run all tests in the test’s DEPENDENCIES as per EVAL-DEPENDENCY-COMBINATION 2. Check that all dependencies have a :PASSED status as per the dependency combination by running CHECK-DEPENDENCY-COMBINATION
3. For each child in the test’s CHILDREN
create a result by RESULT-FOR-TESTABLE
if the child is part of the test’s SKIPPED-CHILDREN
mark its result as :SKIPPED and EVAL-IN-CONTEXT it.
Otherwise EVAL-IN-CONTEXT the child’s result directly.

The methods implemented by PARENT-RESULT and RESULT will in turn
take care to implement proper status setting and avoiding duplicate evaluation.

An error is signalled if the structure is violated.

Function: maybe-quote (expression)

Quotes the expression if it is necessary to do so.

It is considered unnecessary to quote the expression if:
- The expression isnt an atom
- It is constant under CONSTANTP

Implementations other than SBCL and ECL are "out of luck" when it comes to quasiquoting. Generally you just shouldn’t quasiquote for this anyway since it is most likely useful for packing a value in a macro where the lexical references could not be resolved.

Package

parachute.

Source

toolkit.lisp.

Function: maybe-unquote (expression)

Unquotes the expression if it is plausible to do so.

If the form is a cons, it is EVALed. This is the only way I can think of to have any kind of hope to unquote quasiquoted expressions portably. Naturally this will error if the quasiquote contains any form of lexical references that are unresolvable.

Function: print-oneline (thing &optional output)

Attempts to print the given object to the stream designator in one line.

This is mostly to avoid the standard printer’s annoying line break behaviour as it over-eagerly inserts line breaks and makes the output spammy, especially for the plain report. This prints vectors (not strings) and lists on one line for sure. Everything else might still incur line breaks, but I believe that that is mostly outside of my control.

LIST – RESOLVE-TESTS is called on each element of the list and the results are concatenated together. PACKAGE – Returns a list of all tests in the given package. SYMBOL
STRING – If the name resolves to a test by FIND-TEST, a list only containing that test is returned. If the name resolves to a package by FIND-PACKAGE, a list of all tests in the package is returned. If neither can be found, an error is signalled.
