Announcing a new package for testing in Julia: https://github.com/burrowsa/Fixtures.jl
Having only got into Julia towards the end of last year (after hearing Stefan talk at codemesh) I was surprised at how basic the support for unit testing was so I've tried to fill that hole a bit. The package provides a simple framework for fixtures that can be overlayed on top of however you currently do your testing. Some predefined fixtures for managing files are provided as well as a patch fixture. Simple mocks are provided as well as wildcards for matching mock calls. I mostly do python as my day job so the inspiration for the patching and mocks is taken mostly from unittest.mock in python 3 and the fixtures stuff is loosely based on a variety of test frameworks I've used over the years but as I'm currently using py.test day-to-day that probably had more influence than others. I'm still learning Julia so I'm sure there are plenty of improvements I could make to the package, any feedback/issues/pull requests are welcome. Cheers Andy
