Class: Test::Unit::TestCase

Creates a new instance of the fixture for running the test represented by test_method_name.

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 33
      def initialize(test_method_name)
        unless(respond_to?(test_method_name) and
               (method(test_method_name).arity == 0 ||
                method(test_method_name).arity == -1))
          throw :invalid_test
        end
        @method_name = test_method_name
        @test_passed = true
      end

suite()

Rolls up all of the test* methods in the fixture into one suite, creating a new instance of the fixture for each method.

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 46
      def self.suite
        method_names = public_instance_methods(true)
        tests = method_names.delete_if {|method_name| method_name !~ /^test./}
        suite = TestSuite.new(name)
        tests.sort.each do
          |test|
          catch(:invalid_test) do
            suite << new(test)
          end
        end
        if (suite.empty?)
          catch(:invalid_test) do
            suite << new(:default_test)
          end
        end
        return suite
      end

==(other)

It‘s handy to be able to compare TestCase instances.

[Source]

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 145
      def ==(other)
        return false unless(other.kind_of?(self.class))
        return false unless(@method_name == other.method_name)
        self.class == other.class
      end

default_test()

[Source]

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 100
      def default_test
        flunk("No tests were specified")
      end

name()

Returns a human-readable name for the specific test that this instance of TestCase represents.

[Source]

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 135
      def name
        "#{@method_name}(#{self.class.name})"
      end

run(result) {|STARTED, name| ...}

Runs the individual test method represented by this instance of the fixture, collecting statistics, failures and errors in result.

[Source]

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 67
      def run(result)
        yield(STARTED, name)
        @_result = result
        begin
          setup
          __send__(@method_name)
        rescue AssertionFailedError => e
          add_failure(e.message, e.backtrace)
        rescue StandardError, ScriptError
          add_error($!)
        ensure
          begin
            teardown
          rescue AssertionFailedError => e
            add_failure(e.message, e.backtrace)
          rescue StandardError, ScriptError
            add_error($!)
          end
        end
        result.add_run
        yield(FINISHED, name)
      end

setup()

Called before every test method runs. Can be used to set up fixture information.

[Source]

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 92
      def setup
      end

size()

[Source]

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 112
      def size
        1
      end

teardown()

Called after every test method runs. Can be used to tear down fixture information.

[Source]

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 97
      def teardown
      end

to_s()

Overridden to return name.

# File test/unit/testcase.rb, line 140
      def to_s
        name
      end
