class ResultOfTaggedAsInvocation

[source: org/scalatest/verb/ResultOfTaggedAsInvocation.scala]

abstract class ResultOfTaggedAsInvocation(val verb : java.lang.String, val rest : java.lang.String, val tags : scala.List[Tag])
extends AnyRef
Supports the registration of tagged tests in shorthand form in FlatSpec and FixtureFlatSpec.

For example, this class enables syntax such as the following tagged, pending test registration in shorthand form:

 "A Stack (when empty)" should "be empty" taggedAs() is (pending)
                                                     ^
 

In addition, this class indirectly enables syntax such as the following tagged test registration in shorthand form:

 "A Stack (when empty)" should "be empty" taggedAs() in { ... }
                                                     ^
 

Rather than provide in and ignore methods directly, these methods are provided after taggedAs() by implicit conversions because the type passed to in (and ignore) differs in a FlatSpec and a FixtureFlatSpec. A FixtureFlatSpec needs two in methods, one that takes a no-arg test function and another that takes a one-arg test function (a test that takes a Fixture as its parameter). By constrast, a FlatSpec needs only one in method that takes a by-name parameter. As a result, FlatSpec and FixtureFlatSpec each provide an implicit conversion from ResultOfTaggedAsInvocation to a type that provides the appropriate in methods.

Method Details
abstract def is(testFun : => PendingNothing) : Unit
Supports the registration of tagged, pending tests in shorthand form in FlatSpec and FixtureFlatSpec.

This method supports syntax such as the following:

   "A Stack" must "pop values in last-in-first-out order" taggedAs(SlowTest) is (pending)
                                                                             ^
