allocator

This function is intended to be used only in tests. It prints diagnostics to stderr and then returns a test failure error when actual_error_union is not expected_error.


pub const FailingAllocator = @import("testing/failing_allocator.zig").FailingAllocator;

failing_allocator

This function is intended to be used only in tests. When the two values are not equal, prints diagnostics to stderr to show exactly how they are not equal, then returns a test failure error. actual and expected are coerced to a common type using peer type resolution.

};

backend_can_print

This function is intended to be used only in tests. When the formatted result of the template and its arguments does not equal the expected text, it prints diagnostics to stderr to show how they are not equal, then returns an error. It depends on expectEqualStrings() for printing diagnostics.


pub const failing_allocator = failing_allocator_instance.allocator();
pub var failing_allocator_instance = FailingAllocator.init(base_allocator_instance.allocator(), .{ .fail_index = 0 });

expectError()

This function is intended to be used only in tests. When the actual value is not approximately equal to the expected value, prints diagnostics to stderr to show exactly how they are not equal, then returns a test failure error. See math.approxEqAbs for more information on the tolerance parameter. The types must be floating-point. actual and expected are coerced to a common type using peer type resolution.


pub var base_allocator_instance = std.heap.FixedBufferAllocator.init("");

expectEqual()

This function is intended to be used only in tests. When the actual value is not approximately equal to the expected value, prints diagnostics to stderr to show exactly how they are not equal, then returns a test failure error. See math.approxEqRel for more information on the tolerance parameter. The types must be floating-point. actual and expected are coerced to a common type using peer type resolution.

Test:

expectEqual.union(enum)

This function is intended to be used only in tests. When the two slices are not equal, prints diagnostics to stderr to show exactly how they are not equal (with the differences highlighted in red), then returns a test failure error. The colorized output is optional and controlled by the return of std.io.tty.detectConfig(). If your inputs are UTF-8 encoded strings, consider calling expectEqualStrings instead.


// Disable printing in tests for simple backends.
pub const backend_can_print = builtin.zig_backend != .stage2_spirv64;

expectFmt()

This function is intended to be used only in tests. Checks that two slices or two arrays are equal, including that their sentinel (if any) are the same. Will error if given another type.


fn print(comptime fmt: []const u8, args: anytype) void {
    if (@inComptime()) {
        @compileError(std.fmt.comptimePrint(fmt, args));

    }

expectEqualDeep()

This function is intended to be used only in tests. When ok is false, returns a test failure error.

}

Test: expectApproxEqAbs

This function is intended to be used only in tests. When the two values are not deeply equal, prints diagnostics to stderr to show exactly how they are not equal, then returns a test failure error. actual and expected are coerced to a common type using peer type resolution. Deeply equal is defined as follows: Primitive types are deeply equal if they are equal using == operator. Struct values are deeply equal if their corresponding fields are deeply equal. Container types(like Array/Slice/Vector) deeply equal when their corresponding elements are deeply equal. Pointer values are deeply equal if values they point to are deeply equal. Note: Self-referential structs are supported (e.g. things like std.SinglyLinkedList) but may cause infinite recursion or stack overflow when a container has a pointer to itself.


/// This function is intended to be used only in tests. It prints diagnostics to stderr
/// and then returns a test failure error when actual_error_union is not expected_error.
pub fn expectError(expected_error: anyerror, actual_error_union: anytype) !void {
    if (actual_error_union) |actual_payload| {
        print("expected error.{s}, found {any}\n", .{ @errorName(expected_error), actual_payload });
        return error.TestUnexpectedError;
    } else |actual_error| {
        if (expected_error != actual_error) {
            print("expected error.{s}, found error.{s}\n", .{
                @errorName(expected_error),
                @errorName(actual_error),
            });
            return error.TestExpectedError;
        }
    }

expectEqualDeep()

Exhaustively check that allocation failures within test_fn are handled without introducing memory leaks. If used with the testing.allocator as the backing_allocator, it will also be able to detect double frees, etc (when runtime safety is enabled). The provided test_fn must have a std.mem.Allocator as its first argument, and must have a return type of !void. Any extra arguments of test_fn can be provided via the extra_args tuple. Any relevant state shared between runs of test_fn *must* be reset within test_fn. The strategy employed is to: - Run the test function once to get the total number of allocations. - Then, iterate and run the function X more times, incrementing the failing index each iteration (where X is the total number of allocations determined previously) Expects that test_fn has a deterministic number of memory allocations: - If an allocation was made to fail during a run of test_fn, but test_fn didn't return error.OutOfMemory, then error.SwallowedOutOfMemoryError is returned from checkAllAllocationFailures. You may want to ignore this depending on whether or not the code you're testing includes some strategies for recovering from error.OutOfMemory. - If a run of test_fn with an expected allocation failure executes without an allocation failure being induced, then error.NondeterministicMemoryUsage is returned. This error means that there are allocation points that won't be tested by the strategy this function employs (that is, there are sometimes more points of allocation than the initial run of test_fn detects). --- Here's an example using a simple test case that will cause a leak when the allocation of bar fails (but will pass normally): zig test { const length: usize = 10; const allocator = std.testing.allocator; var foo = try allocator.alloc(u8, length); var bar = try allocator.alloc(u8, length); allocator.free(foo); allocator.free(bar); } The test case can be converted to something that this function can use by doing: zig fn testImpl(allocator: std.mem.Allocator, length: usize) !void { var foo = try allocator.alloc(u8, length); var bar = try allocator.alloc(u8, length); allocator.free(foo); allocator.free(bar); } test { const length: usize = 10; const allocator = std.testing.allocator; try std.testing.checkAllAllocationFailures(allocator, testImpl, .{length}); } Running this test will show that foo is leaked when the allocation of bar fails. The simplest fix, in this case, would be to use defer like so: zig fn testImpl(allocator: std.mem.Allocator, length: usize) !void { var foo = try allocator.alloc(u8, length); defer allocator.free(foo); var bar = try allocator.alloc(u8, length); defer allocator.free(bar); }

/// Exhaustively check that allocation failures within `test_fn` are handled without
/// introducing memory leaks. If used with the `testing.allocator` as the `backing_allocator`,
/// it will also be able to detect double frees, etc (when runtime safety is enabled).
///
/// The provided `test_fn` must have a `std.mem.Allocator` as its first argument,
/// and must have a return type of `!void`. Any extra arguments of `test_fn` can
/// be provided via the `extra_args` tuple.
///
/// Any relevant state shared between runs of `test_fn` *must* be reset within `test_fn`.
///
/// The strategy employed is to:
/// - Run the test function once to get the total number of allocations.
/// - Then, iterate and run the function X more times, incrementing
///   the failing index each iteration (where X is the total number of
///   allocations determined previously)
///
/// Expects that `test_fn` has a deterministic number of memory allocations:
/// - If an allocation was made to fail during a run of `test_fn`, but `test_fn`
///   didn't return `error.OutOfMemory`, then `error.SwallowedOutOfMemoryError`
///   is returned from `checkAllAllocationFailures`. You may want to ignore this
///   depending on whether or not the code you're testing includes some strategies
///   for recovering from `error.OutOfMemory`.
/// - If a run of `test_fn` with an expected allocation failure executes without
///   an allocation failure being induced, then `error.NondeterministicMemoryUsage`
///   is returned. This error means that there are allocation points that won't be
///   tested by the strategy this function employs (that is, there are sometimes more
///   points of allocation than the initial run of `test_fn` detects).
///
/// ---
///
/// Here's an example using a simple test case that will cause a leak when the
/// allocation of `bar` fails (but will pass normally):
///
/// ```zig
/// test {
///     const length: usize = 10;
///     const allocator = std.testing.allocator;
///     var foo = try allocator.alloc(u8, length);
///     var bar = try allocator.alloc(u8, length);
///
///     allocator.free(foo);
///     allocator.free(bar);
/// }
/// ```
///
/// The test case can be converted to something that this function can use by
/// doing:
///
/// ```zig
/// fn testImpl(allocator: std.mem.Allocator, length: usize) !void {
///     var foo = try allocator.alloc(u8, length);
///     var bar = try allocator.alloc(u8, length);
///
///     allocator.free(foo);
///     allocator.free(bar);
/// }
///
/// test {
///     const length: usize = 10;
///     const allocator = std.testing.allocator;
///     try std.testing.checkAllAllocationFailures(allocator, testImpl, .{length});
/// }
/// ```
///
/// Running this test will show that `foo` is leaked when the allocation of
/// `bar` fails. The simplest fix, in this case, would be to use defer like so:
///
/// ```zig
/// fn testImpl(allocator: std.mem.Allocator, length: usize) !void {
///     var foo = try allocator.alloc(u8, length);
///     defer allocator.free(foo);
///     var bar = try allocator.alloc(u8, length);
///     defer allocator.free(bar);
/// }
