Does RackUnit provide a facility similar to the setup & teardown functions of other unit testing frameworks? In other words, I'd like to execute some code before each test w/o coding each test to call a setup function or having to create my own macro given how common this is.
As far as I can tell, neither the #:before of test-suite nor the before macro accomplish this. In fact, I haven't been able to discern the purpose of the before macro because the following seem equivalent to me: (before before-expr expr1 expr2) before-expr expr1 expr2 At least with the after macro, there is a guarantee that the after-expr will be evaluated in the face of exceptions. Also, as I mentioned in IRC, I just discovered that the setup function in Elixir (the love child of Erlang and Ruby :) returns an expression that each test accepts as input. This is more functional than the traditional approach of the setup function mutating a variable that the test cases access and allows the tests to run concurrently in the same file. Might be worth adding to a wishlist for future versions of RackUnit. Thanks, Brian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
