History

#1 Updated by Anna Maria Bigatti over 11 years ago

  • Category set to Manual/documentation
  • Assignee set to Anna Maria Bigatti
  • Target version set to CoCoA-5.0.9
  • % Done changed from 0 to 50

I describe here an easy way to check a list of tests (from CoCoA-5/tests/anna.cocoa5):

Define TEST_ASSERT(A,B)
  If A<>B Then
    error("TEST: " + Sprint(A) + " <> " + Sprint(B));
  EndIf;
EndDefine;

And here are some examples of testing: (FunctionCall, ExpectedResult)

TEST_ASSERT(sum([1,2,3]), 6);
TEST_ASSERT(sum([],6), 6);
TEST_ASSERT(product([1,2,3]), 6);
TEST_ASSERT(product([],6), 6);
.....
