trait AsyncFeatureSpecLike extends AsyncTestSuite with AsyncTestRegistration with Informing with Notifying with Alerting with Documenting
Implementation trait for class fixture.AsyncFeatureSpec
, which is
a sister class to org.scalatest.AsyncFeatureSpec
that can pass a
fixture object into its tests.
fixture.AsyncFeatureSpec
is a class,
not a trait, to minimize compile time given there is a slight compiler
overhead to mixing in traits compared to extending classes. If you need
to mix the behavior of fixture.AsyncFeatureSpec
into some other
class, you can use this trait instead, because class
fixture.AsyncFeatureSpec
does nothing more than extend this trait and add a nice toString
implementation.
See the documentation of the class for a detailed
overview of fixture.AsyncFeatureSpec
.

Ensure that an expected exception is thrown by the passed function value.
Ensure that an expected exception is thrown by the passed function value. The thrown exception must be an instance of the type specified by the type parameter of this method. This method invokes the passed function. If the function throws an exception that's an instance of the specified type, this method returns
Succeeded
. Else, whether the passed function returns normally or completes abruptly with a different exception, this method throwsTestFailedException
.Note that the type specified as this method's type parameter may represent any subtype of
AnyRef
, not justThrowable
or one of its subclasses. In Scala, exceptions can be caught based on traits they implement, so it may at times make sense to specify a trait that the intercepted exception's class must mix in. If a class instance is passed for a type that could not possibly be used to catch an exception (such asString
, for example), this method will complete abruptly with aTestFailedException
.Also note that the difference between this method and
intercept
is that this method does not return the expected exception, so it does not let you perform further assertions on that exception. Instead, this method returnsSucceeded
, which means it can serve as the last statement in an async- or safe-style suite. It also indicates to the reader of the code that nothing further is expected about the thrown exception other than its type. The recommended usage is to useassertThrows
by default,intercept
only when you need to inspect the caught exception further.- f

execute(testName: String = null, configMap: ConfigMap = ConfigMap.empty, color: Boolean = true, durations: Boolean = false, shortstacks: Boolean = false, fullstacks: Boolean = false, stats: Boolean = false): Unit
Executes one or more tests in this
Suite
, printing results to the standard output.Executes one or more tests in this
Suite
, printing results to the standard output.This method invokes
run
on itself, passing in values that can be configured via the parameters to this method, all of which have default values. This behavior is convenient when working with ScalaTest in the Scala interpreter. Here's a summary of this method's parameters and how you can use them:The
testName
parameterIf you leave
testName
at its default value (ofnull
), this method will passNone
to thetestName
parameter ofrun
, and as a result all the tests in this suite will be executed. If you specify atestName
, this method will passSome(testName)
torun
, and only that test will be run. Thus to run all tests in a suite from the Scala interpreter, you can write:scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute()
(The above syntax actually invokes the overloaded parameterless form of
execute
, which calls this form with its default parameter values.) To run just the test named"my favorite test"
in a suite from the Scala interpreter, you would write:scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute("my favorite test")
Or:
scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute(testName = "my favorite test")
The
configMap
parameterIf you provide a value for the
configMap
parameter, this method will pass it torun
. If not, the default value of an emptyMap
will be passed. For more information on how to use a config map to configure your test suites, see the config map section in the main documentation for this trait. Here's an example in which you configure a run with the name of an input file:scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute(configMap = Map("inputFileName" -> "in.txt")
The
color
parameterIf you leave the
color
parameter unspecified, this method will configure the reporter it passes torun
to print to the standard output in color (via ansi escape characters). If you don't want color output, specify false forcolor
, like this:scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute(color = false)
The
durations
parameterIf you leave the
durations
parameter unspecified, this method will configure the reporter it passes torun
to not print durations for tests and suites to the standard output. If you want durations printed, specify true fordurations
, like this:scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute(durations = true)
The
shortstacks
andfullstacks
parametersIf you leave both the
shortstacks
andfullstacks
parameters unspecified, this method will configure the reporter it passes torun
to not print stack traces for failed tests if it has a stack depth that identifies the offending line of test code. If you prefer a short stack trace (10 to 15 stack frames) to be printed with any test failure, specify true forshortstacks
:scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute(shortstacks = true)
For full stack traces, set
fullstacks
to true:scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute(fullstacks = true)
If you specify true for both
shortstacks
andfullstacks
, you'll get full stack traces.The
stats
parameterIf you leave the
stats
parameter unspecified, this method will not fireRunStarting
and eitherRunCompleted
orRunAborted
events to the reporter it passes torun
. If you specify true forstats
, this method will fire the run events to the reporter, and the reporter will print the expected test count before the run, and various statistics after, including the number of suites completed and number of tests that succeeded, failed, were ignored or marked pending. Here's how you get the stats:scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute(stats = true)
To summarize, this method will pass to

Note: In ScalaTest, the terms "execute" and "run" basically mean the same thing and can be used interchangably. The reason this method isn't named
run
is that it takes advantage of default arguments, and you can't mix overloaded methods and default arguments in Scala. (If namedrun
, this method would have the same name but different arguments than the mainrun
method that takes seven arguments. Thus it would overload and couldn't be used with default argument values.)Design note: This method has two "features" that may seem unidiomatic. First, the default value of
testName
isnull
. Normally in Scala the type oftestName
would beOption[String]
and the default value would beNone
, as it is in this trait'srun
method. Thenull
value is used here for two reasons. First, in ScalaTest 1.5,execute
was changed from four overloaded methods to one method with default values, taking advantage of the default and named parameters feature introduced in Scala 2.8. To not break existing source code,testName
needed to have typeString
, as it did in two of the overloadedexecute
methods prior to 1.5. The other reason is thatexecute
has always been designed to be called primarily from an interpeter environment, such as the Scala REPL (Read-Evaluate-Print-Loop). In an interpreter environment, minimizing keystrokes is king. AString
type with anull
default value lets users typesuite.execute("my test name")
rather thansuite.execute(Some("my test name"))
, saving several keystrokes.The second non-idiomatic feature is that
shortstacks
andfullstacks
are all lower case rather than camel case. This is done to be consistent with theShell
, which also uses those forms. The reason lower case is used in theShell
is to save keystrokes in an interpreter environment. Most Unix commands, for example, are all lower case, making them easier and quicker to type. In the ScalaTestShell
, methods likeshortstacks
,fullstacks
, andnostats
, etc., are designed to be all lower case so they feel more like shell commands than methods.- testName

Intercept and return an exception that's expected to be thrown by the passed function value. The thrown exception must be an instance of the type specified by the type parameter of this method. This method invokes the passed function. If the function throws an exception that's an instance of the specified type, this method returns that exception. Else, whether the passed function returns normally or completes abruptly with a different exception, this method throws
TestFailedException
.Note that the type specified as this method's type parameter may represent any subtype of
AnyRef
, not justThrowable
or one of its subclasses. In Scala, exceptions can be caught based on traits they implement, so it may at times make sense to specify a trait that the intercepted exception's class must mix in. If a class instance is passed for a type that could not possibly be used to catch an exception (such asString
, for example), this method will complete abruptly with aTestFailedException
.Also note that the difference between this method and
assertThrows
is that this method returns the expected exception, so it lets you perform further assertions on that exception. By contrast, theassertThrows
method returnsSucceeded
, which means it can serve as the last statement in an async- or safe-style suite.assertThrows

pending: Assertion with PendingStatement
Throws
TestPendingException
to indicate a test is pending.Throws
TestPendingException
to indicate a test is pending.A pending test is one that has been given a name but is not yet implemented. The purpose of pending tests is to facilitate a style of testing in which documentation of behavior is sketched out before tests are written to verify that behavior (and often, the before the behavior of the system being tested is itself implemented). Such sketches form a kind of specification of what tests and functionality to implement later.
To support this style of testing, a test can be given a name that specifies one bit of behavior required by the system being tested. The test can also include some code that sends more information about the behavior to the reporter when the tests run. At the end of the test, it can call method
pending
, which will cause it to complete abruptly withTestPendingException
. Because tests in ScalaTest can be designated as pending withTestPendingException
, both the test name and any information sent to the reporter when running the test can appear in the report of a test run. (In other words, the code of a pending test is executed just like any other test.) However, because the test completes abruptly withTestPendingException
, the test will be reported as pending, to indicate the actual test, and possibly the functionality it is intended to test, has not yet been implemented.Note: This method always completes abruptly with a
TestPendingException
. Thus it always has a side effect. Methods with side effects are usually invoked with parentheses, as inpending()
. This method is defined as a parameterless method, in flagrant contradiction to recommended Scala style, because it forms a kind of DSL for pending tests. It enables tests in suites such asFunSuite
orFunSpec
to be denoted by placing "(pending)
" after the test name, as in:test("that style rules are not laws") (pending)
Readers of the code see "pending" in parentheses, which looks like a little note attached to the test name to indicate it is pending. Whereas "
(pending())
looks more like a method call, "(pending)
" lets readers stay at a higher level, forgetting how it is implemented and just focusing on the intent of the programmer who wrote the code.- Definition Classes

.Execute the passed block of code, and if it completes abruptly, throw
TestPendingException
, else throwTestFailedException
.This method can be used to temporarily change a failing test into a pending test in such a way that it will automatically turn back into a failing test once the problem originally causing the test to fail has been fixed. At that point, you need only remove the
pendingUntilFixed
call. In other words, apendingUntilFixed
surrounding a block of code that isn't broken is treated as a test failure. The motivation for this behavior is to encourage people to removependingUntilFixed
calls when there are no longer needed.This method facilitates a style of testing in which tests are written before the code they test. Sometimes you may encounter a test failure that requires more functionality than you want to tackle without writing more tests. In this case you can mark the bit of test code causing the failure with
pendingUntilFixed
. You can then write more tests and functionality that eventually will get your production code to a point where the original test won't fail anymore. At this point the code block marked withpendingUntilFixed
will no longer throw an exception (because the problem has been fixed). This will in turn causependingUntilFixed
to throwTestFailedException
with a detail message explaining you need to go back and remove thependingUntilFixed
call as the problem orginally causing your test code to fail has been fixed.- f

If

methods, which are invoked by this trait's implementation of this method. It is recommended, but not required, that subclasses and subtraits that overriderun

if appropriate. The reason for this recommendation is that ScalaTest includes several traits that override these methods to allow behavior to be mixed into aSuite
. For example, traitBeforeAndAfterEach
overridesrunTests
s. In aSuite
subclass that no longer invokesrunTests
fromrun

trait is not applicable. Mixing it in would have no effect. By makingrunTests

Suite
class, and in such cases, this default implementation of this method will suffice. However, in special cases you may need to override this method to ensure it is unique for each reported suite. For example, if you write aSuite
subclass that reads in a file whose name is passed to its constructor and dynamically creates a suite of tests based on the information in that file, you will likely need to override this method in yourSuite
subclass, perhaps by appending the pathname of the file to the fully qualified class name. That way if you run a suite of tests based on a directory full of these files, you'll have unique suite IDs for each reported suite.The suite ID is intended to be unique, because ScalaTest does not enforce that it is unique. If it is not unique, then you may not be able to uniquely identify a particular test of a particular suite. This ability is used, for example, to dynamically tag tests as having failed in the previous run when rerunning only failed tests.

of test names. If thisFeatureSpec
contains no tests, this method returns an emptySet
.This trait's implementation of this method will return a set that contains the names of all registered tests. The set's iterator will return those names in the order in which the tests were registered. Each test's name is composed of the concatenation of the text of each surrounding describer, in order from outside in, and the text of the example itself, with all components separated by a space.

withClue[T](clue: Any)(fun: ⇒ T): T
Executes the block of code passed as the second parameter, and, if it completes abruptly with a
ModifiableMessage
exception, prepends the "clue" string passed as the first parameter to the beginning of the detail message of that thrown exception, then rethrows it.Executes the block of code passed as the second parameter, and, if it completes abruptly with a
ModifiableMessage
exception, prepends the "clue" string passed as the first parameter to the beginning of the detail message of that thrown exception, then rethrows it. If clue does not end in a white space character, one space will be added between it and the existing detail message (unless the detail message is not defined).This method allows you to add more information about what went wrong that will be reported when a test fails. Here's an example:
withClue("(Employee's name was: " + employee.name + ")") { intercept[IllegalArgumentException] { employee.getTask(-1) } }
If an invocation of
intercept
completed abruptly with an exception, the resulting message would be something like:(Employee's name was Bob Jones) Expected IllegalArgumentException to be thrown, but no exception was thrown

withFixture(test: NoArgAsyncTest): FutureOutcome
Run the passed test function in the context of a fixture established by this method.
Run the passed test function in the context of 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, register a callback on the resulting
FutureOutcome
to perform any clean up needed after the test completes. Because theNoArgAsyncTest
function passed to this method takes no parameters, preparing the fixture will require side effects, such as reassigning instancevar
s in thisSuite
or initializing a globally accessible external database. If you want to avoid reassigning instancevar
s you can use fixture.AsyncTestSuite.This trait's implementation of
runTest
invokes this method for each test, passing in aNoArgAsyncTest
whoseapply
method will execute the code of the test and returns its result.This trait's implementation of this method simply invokes the passed

execute
method has been deprecated and will be removed in a future version of ScalaTest. Please invokeexecute
with empty parens instead:execute()
.The original purpose of this method, which simply invokes the other overloaded form of
execute
with default parameter values, was to serve as a mini-DSL for the Scala interpreter. It allowed you to execute aSuite
in the interpreter with a minimum of finger typing:scala> org.scalatest.run(new SetSpec) An empty Set - should have size 0 - should produce NoSuchElementException when head is invoked !!! IGNORED !!!
However it uses postfix notation, which is now behind a language feature import. Thus better to use the other
execute
method ororg.scalatest.run
:(new ExampleSuite).execute() // or org.scalatest.run(new ExampleSuite)

RuntimeException
indicating no exception is thrown.This method is intended to be used in the Scala interpreter to eliminate large stack traces when trying out ScalaTest assertions and matcher expressions. It is not intended to be used in regular test code. If you want to ensure that a bit of code throws an expected exception, use
intercept
, nottrap
. Here's an example interpreter session withouttrap

That's a pretty tall stack trace. Here's what it looks like when you use
trap
:scala> trap { x shouldEqual 13 } res1: Throwable = org.scalatest.exceptions.TestFailedException: 12 did not equal 13
Much less clutter. Bear in mind, however, that if no exception is thrown by the passed block of code, the
trap
method will create a newNormalResult
(a subclass ofThrowable
made for this purpose only) and return that. If the result was theUnit
value, it will simply say that no exception was thrown:scala> trap { x shouldEqual 12 } res2: Throwable = No exception was thrown.
If the passed block of code results in a value other than
Unit
, theNormalResult
'stoString
will print the value:scala> trap { "Dude!" } res3: Throwable = No exception was thrown. Instead, result was: "Dude!"
Although you can access the result value from the
NormalResult
, its type isAny
and therefore not very convenient to use. It is not intended thattrap
be used in test code. The sole intended use case fortrap
is decluttering Scala interpreter sessions by eliminating stack traces when executing assertion and matcher expressions.- Definition Classes
