In google/patrick: Parameterized Unit Testing

patrick (development version)

patrick (0.3.0)

• Patrick can build test names as {glue}-formatted strings, e.g.

  r with_parameters_test_that( "col2hex works for color {color_name}", { expect_equal(col2hex(color_name), color_hex) }, color_name = c("red", "blue", "black"), color_hex = c("#FF0000", "#0000FF", "#000000") )

  This also works for supplying such a formatted string as .test_name.

  To disable this behavior, use .interpret_glue = FALSE.

  Thanks @chiricom!

patrick 0.2.0

New features

• Patrick will try to generate names automatically if not provided. This also works when cases are provided as a data frame.

patrick 0.1.0

Breaking changes:

• Setting test names should now happen with .test_name, instead of the implicit test_name variable from before. This is now an explicit argument for the function with_parameters_test_that(), and the leading dot should help distinguish this from values passed as cases.

patrick 0.0.4

Update patrick for testthat 3e.

• Catch warnings for code not being braced. We still produce the right code.
• Make sure patrick uses the right line numbers.

patrick 0.0.3

• Add more examples and tests for how patrick works with data frames.
• Update with_parameters_test_that() to use data, dots, details
• Modernize package files: DESCRIPTION and R/patrick-package.R.

patrick 0.0.2

• This is a minor update. Tests are compatible with the next version of testthat.

patrick 0.0.1
