BeforeAndAfterEach

trait BeforeAndAfterEach extends AbstractSuite

Trait that can be mixed into suites that need methods invoked before and after running each test. This trait facilitates a style of testing in which mutable fixture objects held in instance variables are replaced or reinitialized before each test or suite. Here's an example:

import org.scalatest._
import scala.collection.mutable.ListBuffer

class MySuite extends BeforeAndAfterEach {

  // Fixtures as reassignable variables and mutable objects
  var sb: StringBuilder = _
  val lb = new ListBuffer[String]

  override def beforeEach() {
    sb = new StringBuilder("ScalaTest is ")
    lb.clear()
  }

  def testEasy() {
    sb.append("easy!")
    assert(sb.toString === "ScalaTest is easy!")
    assert(lb.isEmpty)
    lb += "sweet"
  }

  def testFun() {
    sb.append("fun!")
    assert(sb.toString === "ScalaTest is fun!")
    assert(lb.isEmpty)
  }
}

Because this trait invokes super.runTest to run each test, you may need to mix this trait in last to get the desired behavior. For example, this won't work, because BeforeAndAfterEach is "super" to FunSuite:

class MySuite extends BeforeAndAfterEach with FunSuite

You'd need to turn it around, so that FunSuite is "super" to BeforeAndAfterEach, like this:

class MySuite extends FunSuite with BeforeAndAfterEach

    A Map whose keys are String tag names with which tests in this Suite are marked, and whose values are the Set of test names marked with each tag. If this Suite contains no tags, this method returns an empty Map.

    Subclasses may implement this method to define and/or discover tags in a custom manner, but overriding method implementations should never return an empty Set as a value. If a tag has no tests, its name should not appear as a key in the returned Map.

  8. abstract def testNames: Set[String]

    An Set of test names.

    An Set of test names. If this Suite contains no tests, this method returns an empty Set.

    Although subclass and subtrait implementations of this method may return a Set whose iterator produces String test names in a well-defined order, the contract of this method does not required a defined order. Subclasses are free to implement this method and return test names in either a defined or undefined order.

  9. abstract def withFixture(test: (BeforeAndAfterEach.this)#NoArgTest): Unit

    Runs the passed test function with a fixture established by this method.

    Runs the passed test function with a fixture established by this method.

    This method should set up the fixture needed by the tests of the current suite, invoke the test function, and if needed, perform any clean up needed after the test completes. Because the NoArgTest function passed to this method takes no parameters, preparing the fixture will require side effects, such as reassigning instance vars in this Suite or initializing a globally accessible external database. If you want to avoid reassigning instance vars you can use fixture.Suite.

    test

    the no-arg test function to run with a fixture

    Run a test surrounded by calls to beforeEach and afterEach.

    This trait's implementation of this method ("this method") invokes beforeEach(configMap) before running each test and afterEach(configMap) after running each test. It runs each test by invoking super.runTest, passing along the five parameters passed to it.

    If any invocation of beforeEach completes abruptly with an exception, this method will complete abruptly with the same exception. If any call to super.runTest completes abruptly with an exception, this method will complete abruptly with the same exception, however, before doing so, it will invoke afterEach. If <cod>afterEach also completes abruptly with an exception, this method will nevertheless complete abruptly with the exception previously thrown by super.runTest. If super.runTest returns normally, but afterEach completes abruptly with an exception, this method will complete abruptly with the exception thrown by afterEach.
