setTestMethod: Create and Save a Default Test Method For a Test Case Adapter
In RTest: A XML-Based Testing Framework for Automated Component Tests of R Packages

Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s) See Also

This function creates and saves a default test method for a RTest adapter with predefined arguments (see 'Details'). It will automatically create the generic as well as the method for the test case class using S4 style.

1 2	setTestMethod(f, signature = "RTestCase", definition = function(object, inputData, execCache, xmlDef, ...) NULL, where = parent.frame())

`f`	(`character`) The name of the function.
`signature`	(`character`) The name of the corresponding test case adapter (i.e. the name of the class, which inherits 'RTestCase' and implements all functions associated to a test case type and specifications).
`definition`	(`function`) The method, which will be called if the signature matches the definitions (see 'Details').
`where`	(`env`) An environment where to set up the Method

This function is a wrapper for standardized and simplified creation of S4-syle test case adapters required for RTest. The passed function has to be assigned to the corresponding test case class, whichinherits RTestCollection-class) and represents the adapter for the respecive implementation of a test case type (i.e. XSD scheme). The passed function definition has to be in the following format with the following parameters. function(object, inputData, execCache, xmlDef, ... ) { # implementation goes here }

object(object) The RTestCase-class object.
inputData(list) List with all input data provided in the XML test case.
execCache(list) List with cached results determined in the predecessor test functions of a test case execution.
xmlDef(XMLNode) An object of class XMLNode, which defines the current test function.
...Additional parameters passed to the individual test functions.
