Long Description

The XPTEST package is toolkit for building test suites, very much inspired by the test frameworks that the Extreme Programming crew made available for Smalltalk an other languages.

5.1 Public Interface


5.1.1 Macros

Macro: def-test-fixture (name supers slotdefs &rest class-options)

Define a new test-fixture class. Works just like defclass, but ensure that test-fixture is a super.

Package

xp-test-framework.

Source

xptestsuite.lisp.

Macro: make-test-case (name fixture &key test-thunk test-suite description)

Create a test-case which is an instance of FIXTURE. TEST-THUNK is the method that will be invoked when perfoming this test, and can be a symbol or a lambda taking a single argument, the test-fixture instance. DESCRIPTION is obviously what it says it is.

Package

xp-test-framework.

Source

xptestsuite.lisp.

Macro: make-test-suite (name description &rest testspecs)

Returns a new test-suite. TESTSPECS are just like lists of arguments to MAKE-TEST-CASE.

Package

xp-test-framework.

Source

xptestsuite.lisp.
