|
|
<p>shUnit2 was originally developed to provide a consistent testing solution for
|
|
<a class="reference external" href="http://log4sh.sourceforge.net/">log4sh</a>, a shell based logging framework similar to <a class="reference external" href="http://logging.apache.org/">log4j</a>. During the
|
|
development of that product, a repeated problem of having things work just fine
|
|
under one shell (<tt class="docutils literal">/bin/bash</tt> on Linux to be specific), and then not working
|
|
under another shell (<tt class="docutils literal">/bin/sh</tt> on Solaris) kept coming up. Although several
|
|
simple tests were run, they were not adequate and did not catch some corner
|
|
cases. The decision was finally made to write a proper unit test framework after
|
|
multiple brown-bag releases were made. <em>Research was done to look for an
|
|
existing product that met the testing requirements, but no adequate product was
|
|
found.</em></p>

<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id5">Quickstart</a></h1>
|
|
<p>This section will give a very quick start to running unit tests with shUnit2.
|
|
More information is located in later sections.</p>
|
|
<p>Here is a quick sample script to show how easy it is to write a unit test in
|
|
shell. <em>Note: the script as it stands expects that you are running it from the
|
|
``examples`` directory.</em></p>
|
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
|
#! /bin/sh
|
|
# file: examples/equality_test.sh
|
|
|
|
testEquality()
|
|
{
|
|
assertEquals 1 1
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
# load shunit2
|
|
. ../src/shell/shunit2
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>Running the unit test should give results similar to the following.</p>
|
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
|
testEquality
|
|
|
|
Ran 1 test.
|
|
|
|
OK
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>W00t! You've just run your first successful unit test. So, what just happened?
|
|
Quite a bit really, and it all happened simply by sourcing the <tt class="docutils literal">shunit2</tt>
|
|
library. The basic functionality for the script above goes like this:</p>
|
|
<ul class="simple">
|
|
<li>When shUnit2 is sourced, it will walk through any functions defined whose
|
|
namestart with the string <tt class="docutils literal">test</tt> and add those to an internal list of tests
|
|
to execute. Once a list of test functions to be run has been determined,
|
|
shunit2 will go to work.</li>
|
|
<li>Before any tests are executed, shUnit2 again looks for a function, this time
|
|
one named <tt class="docutils literal">oneTimeSetUp()</tt>. If it exists, it will be run. This function is
|
|
normally used to setup the environment for all tests to be run. Things like
|
|
creating directories for output or setting environment variables are good to
|
|
place here. Just so you know, you can also declare a corresponding function
|
|
named <tt class="docutils literal">oneTimeTearDown()</tt> function that does the same thing, but once all
|
|
the tests have been completed. It is good for removing temporary directories,
|
|
etc.</li>
|
|
<li>shUnit2 is now ready to run tests. Before doing so though, it again looks for
|
|
another function that might be declared, one named <tt class="docutils literal">setUp()</tt>. If the
|
|
function exists, it will be run before each test. It is good for resetting the
|
|
environment so that each test starts with a clean slate. At this stage, the
|
|
first test is finally run. The success of the test is recorded for a report
|
|
that will be generated later. After the test is run, shUnit2 looks for a final
|
|
function that might be declared, one named <tt class="docutils literal">tearDown()</tt>. If it exists, it
|
|
will be run after each test. It is a good place for cleaning up after each
|
|
test, maybe doing things like removing files that were created, or removing
|
|
directories. This set of steps, <tt class="docutils literal">setUp()</tt> > <tt class="docutils literal">test()</tt> > <tt class="docutils literal">tearDown()</tt>, is
|
|
repeated for all of the available tests.</li>
|
|
<li>Once all the work is done, shUnit2 will generate the nice report you saw
|
|
above. A summary of all the successes and failures will be given so that you
|
|
know how well your code is doing.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>We should now try adding a test that fails. Change your unit test to look like
|
|
this.</p>

<p>So, what did you get? I guess it told you that this isn't 1999. Bummer, eh?
|
|
Hopefully, you noticed a couple of things that were different about the second
|
|
test. First, we added an optional message that the user will see if the assert
|
|
fails. Second, we did comparisons of strings instead of integers as in the first
|
|
test. It doesn't matter whether you are testing for equality of strings or
|
|
integers. Both work equally well with shUnit2.</p>
|
|
<p>Hopefully, this is enough to get you started with unit testing. If you want a
|
|
ton more examples, take a look at the tests provided with <a class="reference external" href="http://log4sh.sourceforge.net/">log4sh</a> or <a class="reference external" href="http://shflags.googlecode.com/">shFlags</a>.
|
|
Both provide excellent examples of more advanced usage. shUnit2 was after all
|
|
written to help with the unit testing problems that <a class="reference external" href="http://log4sh.sourceforge.net/">log4sh</a> had.</p>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id16">Including Line Numbers in Asserts (Macros)</a></h2>
|
|
<p>If you include lots of assert statements in an individual test function, it can
|
|
become difficult to determine exactly which assert was thrown unless your
|
|
messages are unique. To help somewhat, line numbers can be included in the
|
|
assert messages. To enable this, a special shell "macro" must be used rather
|
|
than the standard assert calls. <em>Shell doesn't actually have macros; the name is
|
|
used here as the operation is similar to a standard macro.</em></p>
|
|
<p>For example, to include line numbers for a <tt class="docutils literal">assertEquals()</tt> function call,
|
|
replace the <tt class="docutils literal">assertEquals()</tt> with <tt class="docutils literal">${_ASSERT_EQUALS_}</tt>.</p>

|
|
<p>There are times where the test code you have written is just not applicable to
|
|
the system you are running on. This section describes how to skip these tests
|
|
but maintain the total test count.</p>
|
|
<p>Probably the easiest example would be shell code that is meant to run under the
|
|
<strong>bash</strong> shell, but the unit test is running under the Bourne shell. There are
|
|
things that just won't work. The following test code demonstrates two sample
|
|
functions, one that will be run under any shell, and the another that will run
|
|
only under the <strong>bash</strong> shell.</p>
|
|
<p>Example -- math include</p>
|
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
|
# available as examples/math.inc
|
|
|
|
add_generic()
|
|
{
|
|
num_a=$1
|
|
num_b=$2
|
|
|
|
expr $1 + $2
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
add_bash()
|
|
{
|
|
num_a=$1
|
|
num_b=$2
|
|
|
|
echo $(($1 + $2))
|
|
}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>And here is a corresponding unit test that correctly skips the <tt class="docutils literal">add_bash()</tt>
|
|
function when the unit test is not running under the <strong>bash</strong> shell.</p>
|
|
<p>Example -- math unit test</p>
|
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
|
#! /bin/sh
|
|
# available as examples/math_test.sh
|
|
|
|
testAdding()
|
|
{
|
|
result=`add_generic 1 2`
|
|
assertEquals \
|
|
"the result of '${result}' was wrong" \
|
|
3 "${result}"
|
|
|
|
# disable non-generic tests
|
|
[ -z "${BASH_VERSION:-}" ] && startSkipping
|
|
|
|
result=`add_bash 1 2`
|
|
assertEquals \
|
|
"the result of '${result}' was wrong" \
|
|
3 "${result}"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
oneTimeSetUp()
|
|
{
|
|
# load include to test
|
|
. ./math.inc
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
# load and run shUnit2
|
|
. ../src/shell/shunit2
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>Running the above test under the <strong>bash</strong> shell will result in the following
|
|
output.</p>
|
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
|
$ /bin/bash math_test.sh
|
|

|

<p>But, running the test under any other Unix shell will result in the following

|
output.</p>
|
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
|
$ /bin/ksh math_test.sh
|
|
testAdding
|

|
OK (skipped=1)
|

</pre>
|
|
<p>As you can see, the total number of tests has not changed, but the report
|
|
indicates that some tests were skipped.</p>
|
|
<p>Skipping can be controlled with the following functions: <tt class="docutils literal">startSkipping()</tt>,
|
|
<tt class="docutils literal">stopSkipping()</tt>, and <tt class="docutils literal">isSkipping()</tt>. Once skipping is enabled, it will

remain enabled until the end of the current test function call, after which
|
|
skipping is disabled.</p>
