parameterized

Procedural macro based parameterized testing library. Useful, when you want to run a test case with many different input sets.

When defining a parameterized test case, the #[parameterized(...)] attribute should be used instead of #[test].

This crate was inspired by JUnit @ParameterizedTest.

If you consider using parameterized, you can also check out Yare which is a variation on parameterized, which pivots the parameters, so you can define your own identifier for cases. Alternatively, there is Sif where each case can be defined by a separate #[case(...)] attribute.

Example:

Additional examples can be found at the parameterized-examples repository, and in the tests folder.

enum Fruit {
    Apple,
    Bramble(BrambleFruit),
    Pear,
}

trait NameOf {
    fn name_of(&self) -> &str;
}

impl NameOf for Fruit {
    fn name_of(&self) -> &str {
        match self {
            Fruit::Apple => "apple",
            Fruit::Bramble(fruit) => fruit.name_of(),
            Fruit::Pear => "pear",
        }
    }
}

enum BrambleFruit {
    Blackberry,
}

impl NameOf for BrambleFruit {
    fn name_of(&self) -> &str {
        match self {
            BrambleFruit::Blackberry => "blackberry",
        }
    }
}

#[cfg(test)]
mod tests {
    use super::*;
    use parameterized::parameterized;


    #[parameterized(fruit = {
        Fruit::Apple, Fruit::Pear, Fruit::Bramble(BrambleFruit::Blackberry)
    }, name = {
        "apple", "pear", "blackberry"
    })]
    fn a_fruity_test(fruit: Fruit, name: &str) {
        assert_eq!(fruit.name_of(), name)
    }
}

Custom test attributes (e.g. tokio::test)

By default, the code generation step of the parameterized attribute will generate test cases marked with a #[test] attribute. For example, for the parameterized test case add5 below, the following code would be generated:

Parameterized test case

use parameterized::parameterized;

#[parameterized(input = {
    0, 1
}, expected = {
    5, 6
})]
fn add5(input: u32, expected: u32) {
    assert_eq!(input + 5, expected);
}

Generated code

#[cfg(test)]
mod add5 {
    use super::*;

    #[test]
    fn case_0() {
        assert_eq!(0 + 5, 5);
    }

    #[test]
    fn case_1() {
        assert_eq!(1 + 5, 6);
    }
}

However, sometimes a different test macro is desired, for example with #[tokio::test]. To let #[parameterized] use a user specified test macro, you may add the #[parameterized_macro(...)] attribute after a #[parameterized] attribute. Since we use #[tokio::test] in this example, we also add the async item to the function signature (but this is of course not mandatory for other macros).

Parameterized test case with #[parameterized_macro(...)]

#[parameterized(input = {
    0, 1
}, expected = {
    5, 6
})]
#[parameterized_macro(tokio::test)]
async fn add5(input: u32, expected: u32) {
    assert_eq!(input + 5, expected);
}

Gotchas:

  • The #[parameterized_macro(...)] must always be specified after a #[parameterized(...)] attribute
  • For now, only one #[parameterized_macro(...)] attribute per parameterized test function is supported.
  • While you can rename the parameterized attribute using import renaming ( e.g. use parameterized::parameterized as pm), the parameterized_macro attribute cannot be renamed, since it's not actually defined as a separate macro. Instead, the parameterized parses this attribute as well.

Imports

If you prefer not to import this library (with use parameterized::parameterized;) in every test module, you can put the following snippet at the top of your crate root:

#[cfg(test)]
#[macro_use]
extern crate parameterized;

IDE 'run test' intent

IntelliJ IDEA recognizes test cases and provides context menus which allow you to run tests within a certain scope (such as a module or a single test case). For example, in IntelliJ you can usually run individual test cases by clicking the ▶ icon in the gutter. Unfortunately, attribute macros are currently not expanded by intellij-rust. This means that the IDE will not recognize test cases generated as a result of attribute macros (such as the parameterized macro published by this crate).

A workaround can be found below (if you have a better solution, please feel free to open an issue; thank you in advance!)

fn squared(input: i8) -> i8 {
    input * input
}

#[cfg(test)]
mod tests {
    use super::*;

    use parameterized::parameterized as pm;
    use parameterized::ide;
        
    mod squared_tests { // <--
        use super::*;

        ide!(); // <--
    
        #[pm(input = {
            -2, -1, 0, 1, 2
        }, expected = {
            4, 1, 0, 1, 4
        })]
        fn test_squared(input: i8, output: i8) {
            assert_eq(squared(input), output);
        }
    }
}

Here we created an empty test case (using the ide!() macro) which will mark the surrounding module as 'containing test cases'. In the gutter you will find the ▶ icon next to the module. This allows you to run test cases per module.

Note: intellij-rust does expand declarative macro's (with the new macro engine which can be selected in the 'settings' menu), such as this ide! macro.
