Oh my! I almost forgot the most important part in 'Beginning Ruby' - how to test your code!
require 'test/unit'
class MyTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
def test_hookup
assert(2==2)
end
end
Running that in SciTE gives the following output:
Loaded suite rubyunittest
Started
.
Finished in 0.0 seconds.
1 tests, 1 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors
On the other hand, if you change one of those twos in the
assert() to a three, it shows this:
Loaded suite rubyunittest
Started
F
Finished in 0.079 seconds.
1) Failure:
test_hookup(MyTest) [rubyunittest.rb:4]:
<false> is not true.
1 tests, 1 assertions, 1 failures, 0 errors
The Ruby plugin for Eclipse gives a nice little GUI, however, where you can see the green bar (assuming
your code passes all the tests). I also have a classmate who is writing a Ruby unit testing framework based on NUnit for his thesis, so it is supposed to be the bollocks. I'll let you all know more when I know more.
