Qc +Expects the test case to exit prematurely regardless of the nature of the +exit. +.It Nm atf_expect_exit Qo exitcode Qc Qo reason Qc Qo ... Qc +Expects the test case to exit cleanly. +If +.Va exitcode +is not +.Sq -1 , +the runtime engine will validate that the exit code of the test case +matches the one provided in this call. +Otherwise, the exact value will be ignored. +.It Nm atf_expect_fail Qo reason Qc +Any failure raised in this mode is recorded, but such failures do not report +the test case as failed; instead, the test case finalizes cleanly and is +reported as +.Sq expected failure ; +this report includes the provided +.Fa reason +as part of it. +If no error is raised while running in this mode, then the test case is +reported as +.Sq failed . +.Pp +This mode is useful to reproduce actual known bugs in tests. +Whenever the developer fixes the bug later on, the test case will start +reporting a failure, signaling the developer that the test case must be +adjusted to the new conditions. +In this situation, it is useful, for example, to set +.Fa reason +as the bug number for tracking purposes. +.It Nm atf_expect_pass +This is the normal mode of execution. +In this mode, any failure is reported as such to the user and the test case +is marked as +.Sq failed . +.It Nm atf_expect_signal Qo signo Qc Qo reason Qc Qo ... Qc +Expects the test case to terminate due to the reception of a signal. +If +.Va signo +is not +.Sq -1 , +the runtime engine will validate that the signal that terminated the test +case matches the one provided in this call. +Otherwise, the exact value will be ignored. +.It Nm atf_expect_timeout Qo reason Qc Qo ... Qc +Expects the test case to execute for longer than its timeout. +.El +.Ss Helper functions for common checks +.Bl -tag -width indent +.It Nm atf_check Qo [options] Qc Qo command Qc Qo [args] Qc +Executes a command, performs checks on its exit code and its output, and +fails the test case if any of the checks is not successful. +This function is particularly useful in integration tests that verify the +correct functioning of a binary. +.Pp +Internally, this function is just a wrapper over the +.Xr atf-check 1 +tool (whose manual page provides all details on the calling syntax). +You should always use the +.Nm atf_check +function instead of the +.Xr atf-check 1 +tool in your scripts; the latter is not even in the path. +.It Nm atf_check_equal Qo expected_expression Qc Qo actual_expression Qc +This function takes two expressions, evaluates them and, if their +results differ, aborts the test case with an appropriate failure message. +The common style is to put the expected value in the first parameter and the +actual value in the second parameter. +.El +.Sh EXAMPLES +The following shows a complete test program with a single test case that +validates the addition operator: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +atf_test_case addition +addition_head() { + atf_set "descr" "Sample tests for the addition operator" +} +addition_body() { + atf_check_equal 0 $((0 + 0)) + atf_check_equal 1 $((0 + 1)) + atf_check_equal 1 $((1 + 0)) + + atf_check_equal 2 $((1 + 1)) + + atf_check_equal 300 $((100 + 200)) +} + +atf_init_test_cases() { + atf_add_test_case addition +} +.Ed +.Pp +This other example shows how to include a file with extra helper functions +in the test program: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +.Ns ... definition of test cases ... + +atf_init_test_cases() { + . $(atf_get_srcdir)/helper_functions.sh + + atf_add_test_case foo1 + atf_add_test_case foo2 +} +.Ed +.Pp +This example demonstrates the use of the very useful +.Nm atf_check +function: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +# Check for silent output +atf_check -s exit:0 -o empty -e empty 'true' + +# Check for silent output and failure +atf_check -s exit:1 -o empty -e empty 'false' + +# Check for known stdout and silent stderr +echo foo >expout +atf_check -s exit:0 -o file:expout -e empty 'echo foo' + +# Generate a file for later inspection +atf_check -s exit:0 -o save:stdout -e empty 'ls' +grep foo ls || atf_fail "foo file not found in listing" + +# Or just do the match along the way +atf_check -s exit:0 -o match:"^foo$" -e empty 'ls' +.Ed +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr atf-check 1 , +.Xr atf-sh 1 , +.Xr atf-test-program 1 , +.Xr atf-test-case 4 |
