# Fixture-based test framework for Rust
## Introduction
`rstest` uses procedural macros to help you on writing
fixtures and table-based tests. To use it, add the
following lines to your `Cargo.toml` file:
```toml
[dev-dependencies]
rstest = "0.18.2"
```
### Fixture
The core idea is that you can inject your test dependencies
by passing them as test arguments. In the following example,
a `fixture` is defined and then used in two tests,
simply providing it as an argument:
```rust
use rstest::*;
#[fixture]
pub fn fixture() -> u32 { 42 }
#[rstest]
fn should_success(fixture: u32) {
assert_eq!(fixture, 42);
}
#[rstest]
fn should_fail(fixture: u32) {
assert_ne!(fixture, 42);
}
```
### Parametrize
You can also inject values in some other ways. For instance, you can
create a set of tests by simply providing the injected values for each
case: `rstest` will generate an independent test for each case.
```rust
use rstest::rstest;
#[rstest]
#[case(0, 0)]
#[case(1, 1)]
#[case(2, 1)]
#[case(3, 2)]
#[case(4, 3)]
fn fibonacci_test(#[case] input: u32, #[case] expected: u32) {
assert_eq!(expected, fibonacci(input))
}
```
Running `cargo test` in this case executes five tests:
```bash
running 5 tests
test fibonacci_test::case_1 ... ok
test fibonacci_test::case_2 ... ok
test fibonacci_test::case_3 ... ok
test fibonacci_test::case_4 ... ok
test fibonacci_test::case_5 ... ok
test result: ok. 5 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 0 filtered out
```
If you need to just providing a bunch of values for which you
need to run your test, you can use `#[values(list, of, values)]`
argument attribute:
```rust
use rstest::rstest;
#[rstest]
fn should_be_invalid(
#[values(None, Some(""), Some(" "))]
value: Option<&str>
) {
assert!(!valid(value))
}
```
Or create a _matrix_ test by using _list of values_ for some
variables that will generate the cartesian product of all the
values.
#### Use Parametrize definition in more tests
If you need to use a test list for more than one test you can use [`rstest_reuse`][reuse-crate-link]
crate. With this helper crate you can define a template and use it everywhere.
```rust
use rstest::rstest;
use rstest_reuse::{self, *};
#[template]
#[rstest]
#[case(2, 2)]
#[case(4/2, 2)]
fn two_simple_cases(#[case] a: u32, #[case] b: u32) {}
#[apply(two_simple_cases)]
fn it_works(#[case] a: u32, #[case] b: u32) {
assert!(a == b);
}
```
See [`rstest_reuse`][reuse-crate-link] for more details.
### Magic Conversion
If you need a value where its type implement `FromStr()` trait you can use a literal
string to build it:
```rust
# use rstest::rstest;
# use std::net::SocketAddr;
#[rstest]
#[case("1.2.3.4:8080", 8080)]
#[case("127.0.0.1:9000", 9000)]
fn check_port(#[case] addr: SocketAddr, #[case] expected: u16) {
assert_eq!(expected, addr.port());
}
```
You can use this feature also in value list and in fixture default value.
### Async
`rstest` provides out of the box `async` support. Just mark your
test function as `async`, and it'll use `#[async-std::test]` to
annotate it. This feature can be really useful to build async
parametric tests using a tidy syntax:
```rust
use rstest::*;
#[rstest]
#[case(5, 2, 3)]
#[should_panic]
#[case(42, 40, 1)]
async fn my_async_test(#[case] expected: u32, #[case] a: u32, #[case] b: u32) {
assert_eq!(expected, async_sum(a, b).await);
}
```
Currently, only `async-std` is supported out of the box. But if you need to use
another runtime that provide its own test attribute (i.e. `tokio::test` or
`actix_rt::test`) you can use it in your `async` test like described in
[Inject Test Attribute](#inject-test-attribute).
To use this feature, you need to enable `attributes` in the `async-std`
features list in your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
async-std = { version = "1.5", features = ["attributes"] }
```
If your test input is an async value (fixture or test parameter) you can use `#[future]`
attribute to remove `impl Future<Output = T>` boilerplate and just use `T`:
```rust
use rstest::*;
#[fixture]
async fn base() -> u32 { 42 }
#[rstest]
#[case(21, async { 2 })]
#[case(6, async { 7 })]
async fn my_async_test(#[future] base: u32, #[case] expected: u32, #[future] #[case] div: u32) {
assert_eq!(expected, base.await / div.await);
}
```
As you noted you should `.await` all _future_ values and this sometimes can be really boring.
In this case you can use `#[future(awt)]` to _awaiting_ an input or annotating your function
with `#[awt]` attributes to globally `.await` all your _future_ inputs. Previous code can be
simplified like follow:
```rust
use rstest::*;
# #[fixture]
# async fn base() -> u32 { 42 }
#[rstest]
#[case(21, async { 2 })]
#[case(6, async { 7 })]
#[awt]
async fn global(#[future] base: u32, #[case] expected: u32, #[future] #[case] div: u32) {
assert_eq!(expected, base / div);
}
#[rstest]
#[case(21, async { 2 })]
#[case(6, async { 7 })]
async fn single(#[future] base: u32, #[case] expected: u32, #[future(awt)] #[case] div: u32) {
assert_eq!(expected, base.await / div);
}
```
### Files path as input arguments
If you need to create a test for each file in a given location you can use
`#[files("glob path syntax")]` attribute to generate a test for each file that
satisfy the given glob path.
```rust
#[rstest]
fn for_each_file(#[files("src/**/*.rs")] #[exclude("test")] path: PathBuf) {
assert!(check_file(&path))
}
```
The default behavior is to ignore the files that start with `"."`, but you can
modify this by use `#[include_dot_files]` attribute. The `files` attribute can be
used more than once on the same variable, and you can also create some custom
exclusion rules with the `#[exclude("regex")]` attributes that filter out all
paths that verify the regular expression.
### Default timeout
You can set a default timeout for test using the `RSTEST_TIMEOUT` environment variable.
The value is in seconds and is evaluated on test compile time.
### Test `#[timeout()]`
You can define an execution timeout for your tests with `#[timeout(<duration>)]` attribute. Timeout
works both for sync and async tests and is runtime agnostic. `#[timeout(<duration>)]` take an
expression that should return a `std::time::Duration`. Follow a simple async example:
```rust
use rstest::*;
use std::time::Duration;
async fn delayed_sum(a: u32, b: u32,delay: Duration) -> u32 {
async_std::task::sleep(delay).await;
a + b
}
#[rstest]
#[timeout(Duration::from_millis(80))]
async fn single_pass() {
assert_eq!(4, delayed_sum(2, 2, ms(10)).await);
}
```
In this case test pass because the delay is just 10 milliseconds and timeout is
80 milliseconds.
You can use `timeout` attribute like any other attribute in your tests, and you can
override a group timeout with a case specific one. In the follow example we have
3 tests where first and third use 100 milliseconds but the second one use 10 milliseconds.
Another valuable point in this example is to use an expression to compute the
duration.
```rust
fn ms(ms: u32) -> Duration {
Duration::from_millis(ms.into())
}
#[rstest]
#[case::pass(ms(1), 4)]
#[timeout(ms(10))]
#[case::fail_timeout(ms(60), 4)]
#[case::fail_value(ms(1), 5)]
#[timeout(ms(100))]
async fn group_one_timeout_override(#[case] delay: Duration, #[case] expected: u32) {
assert_eq!(expected, delayed_sum(2, 2, delay).await);
}
```
If you want to use `timeout` for `async` test you need to use `async-timeout`
feature (enabled by default).
### Inject Test Attribute
If you would like to use another `test` attribute for your test you can simply
indicate it in your test function's attributes. For instance if you want
to test some async function with use `actix_rt::test` attribute you can just write:
```rust
use rstest::*;
use actix_rt;
use std::future::Future;
#[rstest]
#[case(2, async { 4 })]
#[case(21, async { 42 })]
#[actix_rt::test]
async fn my_async_test(#[case] a: u32, #[case] #[future] result: u32) {
assert_eq!(2 * a, result.await);
}
```
Just the attributes that ends with `test` (last path segment) can be injected.
### Use `#[once]` Fixture
If you need to a fixture that should be initialized just once for all tests
you can use `#[once]` attribute. `rstest` call your fixture function just once and
return a reference to your function result to all your tests:
```rust
#[fixture]
#[once]
fn once_fixture() -> i32 { 42 }
#[rstest]
fn single(once_fixture: &i32) {
// All tests that use once_fixture will share the same reference to once_fixture()
// function result.
assert_eq!(&42, once_fixture)
}
```
## Complete Example
All these features can be used together with a mixture of fixture variables,
fixed cases and a bunch of values. For instance, you might need two
test cases which test for panics, one for a logged-in user and one for a guest user.
```rust
use rstest::*;
#[fixture]
fn repository() -> InMemoryRepository {
let mut r = InMemoryRepository::default();
// fill repository with some data
r
}
#[fixture]
fn alice() -> User {
User::logged("Alice", "2001-10-04", "London", "UK")
}
#[rstest]
#[case::authorized_user(alice())] // We can use `fixture` also as standard function
#[case::guest(User::Guest)] // We can give a name to every case : `guest` in this case
// and `authorized_user`
#[should_panic(expected = "Invalid query error")] // We would test a panic
fn should_be_invalid_query_error(
repository: impl Repository,
#[case] user: User,
#[values(" ", "^%$some#@invalid!chars", ".n.o.d.o.t.s.")] query: &str,
) {
repository.find_items(&user, query).unwrap();
}
```
This example will generate exactly 6 tests grouped by 2 different cases:
```text
running 6 tests
test should_be_invalid_query_error::case_1_authorized_user::query_1_____ - should panic ... ok
test should_be_invalid_query_error::case_2_guest::query_2_____someinvalid_chars__ - should panic ... ok
test should_be_invalid_query_error::case_1_authorized_user::query_2_____someinvalid_chars__ - should panic ... ok
test should_be_invalid_query_error::case_2_guest::query_3____n_o_d_o_t_s___ - should panic ... ok
test should_be_invalid_query_error::case_1_authorized_user::query_3____n_o_d_o_t_s___ - should panic ... ok
test should_be_invalid_query_error::case_2_guest::query_1_____ - should panic ... ok
test result: ok. 6 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 0 filtered out; finished in 0.00s
```
Note that the names of the values _try_ to convert the input expression in a
Rust valid identifier name to help you find which tests fail.
## More
Is that all? Not quite yet!
A fixture can be injected by another fixture, and they can be called
using just some of its arguments.
```rust
#[fixture]
fn user(#[default("Alice")] name: &str, #[default(22)] age: u8) -> User {
User::new(name, age)
}
#[rstest]
fn is_alice(user: User) {
assert_eq!(user.name(), "Alice")
}
#[rstest]
fn is_22(user: User) {
assert_eq!(user.age(), 22)
}
#[rstest]
fn is_bob(#[with("Bob")] user: User) {
assert_eq!(user.name(), "Bob")
}
#[rstest]
fn is_42(#[with("", 42)] user: User) {
assert_eq!(user.age(), 42)
}
```
As you noted you can provide default values without the need of a fixture
to define it.
Finally, if you need tracing the input values you can just
add the `trace` attribute to your test to enable the dump of all input
variables.
```rust
#[rstest]
#[case(42, "FortyTwo", ("minus twelve", -12))]
#[case(24, "TwentyFour", ("minus twentyfour", -24))]
#[trace] //This attribute enable tracing
fn should_fail(#[case] number: u32, #[case] name: &str, #[case] tuple: (&str, i32)) {
assert!(false); // <- stdout come out just for failed tests
}
```
```text
running 2 tests
test should_fail::case_1 ... FAILED
test should_fail::case_2 ... FAILED
failures:
---- should_fail::case_1 stdout ----
------------ TEST ARGUMENTS ------------
number = 42
name = "FortyTwo"
tuple = ("minus twelve", -12)
-------------- TEST START --------------
thread 'should_fail::case_1' panicked at 'assertion failed: false', src/main.rs:64:5
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace.
---- should_fail::case_2 stdout ----
------------ TEST ARGUMENTS ------------
number = 24
name = "TwentyFour"
tuple = ("minus twentyfour", -24)
-------------- TEST START --------------
thread 'should_fail::case_2' panicked at 'assertion failed: false', src/main.rs:64:5
failures:
should_fail::case_1
should_fail::case_2
test result: FAILED. 0 passed; 2 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 0 filtered out
```
In case one or more variables don't implement the `Debug` trait, an error
is raised, but it's also possible to exclude a variable using the
`#[notrace]` argument attribute.
