Demonstrate allows tests to be written without as a much repetitive code within the `demonstrate!` macro, which will generate the corresponding full tests.
This testing library is highly influenced by [speculate.rs](https://github.com/utkarshkukreti/speculate.rs/) and [ruspec](https://github.com/k-nasa/ruspec/) which both take inspiration from [RSpec](https://rspec.info/).
The following new block definitions are utilized by Demonstrate:
- **`before`/`after`** — A block of source code that will be included at the start or end of each test respectively in the current and nested `describe`/`context` blocks.
- **`describe`/`context`** — `describe` and `context` are aliases for eachother. Specifies a new scope of tests which can contain a `before` and/or `after` block, nested `describe`/`context` blocks, and `it`/`test` blocks. These translate to Rust `mod` blocks, but also allow for shared test properties to be defined such as tests having outer attributes, being `async`, and having `Return<()>` types.
- **`it`/`test`** — `it` and `test` are aliases for eachother. Represents one test that translate to a Rust unit test.
## Example
```rust
use demonstrate::demonstrate;
fn is_4() -> u8 {
4
}
demonstrate! {
describe "module" {
use super::*;
before {
let four = 4;
}
#[should_panic]
it "can fail" {
assert!(four != 4)
}
test "is returnable" -> Result<(), &'static str> {
if is_4() == four {
Ok(())
} else {
Err("It isn't 4! :o")
}
}
#[async_attributes::test]
async context "asynchronous" {
before {
let is_4_task = async_std::task::spawn(async {
is_4()
});
}
it "awaits" {
assert_eq!(four, is_4_task.await)
}
}
}
}
```
