class ItWord

[source: org/scalatest/Spec.scala]

protected class ItWord
extends AnyRef
Class that, via an instance referenced from the it field, supports test (and shared test) registration in Specs.

This class supports syntax such as the following test registration:

   it("should be empty")
   ^
   

and the following shared test registration:

   it should behave like nonFullStack(stackWithOneItem)
   ^
   

For more information and examples, see the main documentation for Spec.

Method Summary
def apply (specText : java.lang.String, testTags : Tag*)(testFun : => Unit) : Unit
Register a test with the given spec text, optional tags, and test function value that takes no arguments. An invocation of this method is called an “example.” This method will register the test for later execution via an invocation of one of the execute methods. The name of the test will be a concatenation of the text of all surrounding describers, from outside in, and the passed spec text, with one space placed between each item. (See the documenation for testNames for an example.) The resulting test name must not have been registered previously on this Spec instance.
def apply (specText : java.lang.String)(testFun : => Unit) : Unit
Register a test with the given spec text and test function value that takes no arguments. This method will register the test for later execution via an invocation of one of the execute methods. The name of the test will be a concatenation of the text of all surrounding describers, from outside in, and the passed spec text, with one space placed between each item. (See the documenation for testNames for an example.) The resulting test name must not have been registered previously on this Spec instance.
def must (behaveWord : BehaveWord) : BehaveWord
Supports the registration of shared tests.
def should (behaveWord : BehaveWord) : BehaveWord
Supports the registration of shared tests.

Method Details
def apply(specText : java.lang.String, testTags : Tag*)(testFun : => Unit) : Unit
Register a test with the given spec text, optional tags, and test function value that takes no arguments. An invocation of this method is called an “example.” This method will register the test for later execution via an invocation of one of the execute methods. The name of the test will be a concatenation of the text of all surrounding describers, from outside in, and the passed spec text, with one space placed between each item. (See the documenation for testNames for an example.) The resulting test name must not have been registered previously on this Spec instance.
Parameters
specText - the specification text, which will be combined with the descText of any surrounding describers to form the test name
testTags - the optional list of tags for this test
testFun - the test function
Throws
DuplicateTestNameException - if a test with the same name has been registered previously
TestRegistrationClosedException - if invoked after run has been invoked on this suite
NullPointerException - if specText or any passed test tag is null

def apply(specText : java.lang.String)(testFun : => Unit) : Unit
Register a test with the given spec text and test function value that takes no arguments. This method will register the test for later execution via an invocation of one of the execute methods. The name of the test will be a concatenation of the text of all surrounding describers, from outside in, and the passed spec text, with one space placed between each item.

Parameters
specText - the specification text, which will be combined with the descText of any surrounding describers to form the test name
testFun - the test function
Throws
DuplicateTestNameException - if a test with the same name has been registered previously
TestRegistrationClosedException - if invoked after run has been invoked on this suite
NullPointerException - if specText or any passed test tag is null

def should(behaveWord : BehaveWord) : BehaveWord
Supports the registration of shared tests.

This method supports syntax such as the following:

     it should behave like nonFullStack(stackWithOneItem)
        ^
     

For examples of shared tests, see the Shared tests section in the main documentation for trait Spec.


def must(behaveWord : BehaveWord) : BehaveWord

     it must behave like nonFullStack(stackWithOneItem)
        ^
