unit testing with ruby1.9.x

[john maclean]

Built ruby from a recent svn. Builds fine and works.

ruby19jx --version
ruby 1.9.2dev (2009-03-18) [i686-linux]

Now for some unit testing;

gem install 'test-unit' --remote

run a test on some code;

ruby19jx proj/code/rb/projects/virt/vz/test/test_vz001.rb
ruby 1.9.2dev (2009-03-18) [i686-linux]
/home/jayeola/ix/lib/ruby19jx/gems/1.9.1/gems/test-unit-2.0.2/lib/test/unit/autorunner.rb:1:
warning: loading in progress, circular require considered harmful -
/home/j\
ayeola/ix/lib/ruby19jx/gems/1.9.1/gems/test-unit-2.0.2/lib/test/unit.rb
FE

the autorunner? Am I to `require unit/test2.x` or something?

What's wrong with minitest that ships with 1.9?

Uh, can you point me to some useful docs? Not come across this module
before and I see no obvious docs, (ri or gem server). /me is surprised
about this one!

It's just like 1.8's test unit, but with some changes to the assertions:

$ ri MiniTest::Assertions
-------------------------------------------- Class: MiniTest::Assertions
[no description]
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Instance methods:
_assertions, _assertions=, assert, assert_block, assert_empty,
assert_equal, assert_in_delta, assert_in_epsilon, assert_includes,
assert_instance_of, assert_kind_of, assert_match, assert_nil,
assert_operator, assert_raises, assert_respond_to, assert_same,
assert_send, assert_throws, capture_io, exception_details, flunk,
message, mu_pp, pass, refute, refute_empty, refute_equal,
refute_in_delta, refute_in_epsilon, refute_includes,
refute_instance_of, refute_kind_of, refute_match, refute_nil,
refute_operator, refute_respond_to, refute_same, skip

See also the minitest gem.

the autorunner? Am I to `require unit/test2.x` or something?

At the risk of stating what is obvious to some and may not be to all,
minitest is now the default testing library supplied with 1.9, replacing
the previously supplied Test::Unit library. I am informed that there one
can easily obtain the same functionality with minitest - but I know
essentially nothing about this, and there seems to be no documentation,
outside of discussion in various books which take up Ruby 1.9. The
library author has said that the code is easy enough to read that that
is good documentation.

Hope this helps.

Tom
