Define, Share and Automate your tests / specifications

Simple test class

• Test class are Groovy class which extend TmarXXX class

  • Tmar4JUnit

  • Tmar4TestNG

  • Tmar4Spock (see chapter dedicated to Spock)
     

• When a test runs

  • For each iteration

    • It gets values provided by Tmar from the description file

    • Run the Groovy or Java business rules

    • Assigns result values to the Tmar result fields
       

  • At the end Tmar compare those values with each expected value and generates a clear and readable html report.

 

 

A simple example :

Get and assign data 

The simplest way to get iteration data and to assign result values is to us eachIteration with test name for parameter

 

For each iteration you get a tmar object you can use to retrieve or assign values

 

eachIteration('multiply') { tmar ->

         calculator = new Calculator()

myValue = calculator.multiply(tmar.number1,tmar.number2)

tmar.result = myValue

} 

 

a second syntax let you have the iteration index with the tmar object

 

eachIteration('multiply') { tmar, iterationNumber ->

...

} 

 

It's also possible to directly get a tmar object before going through the iterations

 

def myTmarData = getData('multiply')

eachIteration(myTmarData) { tmar ->

...

}

 

It's sometimes interesting if you want to access tmar table description to initialize context before iterating. ( see Table and Map support )

TmarData object provides three methods for this purpose :

 

getCurrentIterationNumber()

 

getIterationHeader()

which returns a map of fields where

key = fieldName

value = Boolean value which is true if the field is a result field (? In the column description)

 

getIterationValues()

which returns a map of fields where

key = fieldName

value is the value of the field from the Tmar description, Only non-result fields are present in this Map

 

 

Examples :

Get current iteration information

accumulation of values

 

/sequence

[ number 1 | number 2 | result ? | accumulated ? |

|    2     |    2     |     4    |     4         |

|    2     |    3     |     6    |    10         |

|    2     |    4     |     8    |    18         |

tmar.getIterationHeader() ==

[‘number1’:false, ’number2’:false, ‘result’:true, ’accumulated’:true]

 

 

tmar.getIterationValues() == [‘number1’:2, ’number2’:2] (first iteration)

tmar.getIterationValues() == [‘number1’:2, ’number2’:3] (second iteration)
