Started coding in Scala fairly recently and I tried to write some property based test-cases. Here, I am trying to generate raw data which mimics the system I am testing. The goal is to first generate base elements (ctrl
and idz
), then use those values to generate two classes (A1
and B1
) and finally check their properties. I first tried the following -
import org.scalatest._
import prop._
import scala.collection.immutable._
import org.scalacheck.{Gen, Arbitrary}
case class A(
controller: String,
id: Double,
x: Double
)
case class B(
controller: String,
id: Double,
y: Double
)
object BaseGenerators {
val ctrl = Gen.const("ABC")
val idz = Arbitrary.arbitrary[Double]
}
trait Generators {
val obj = BaseGenerators
val A1 = for {
controller <- obj.ctrl
id <- obj.idz
x <- Arbitrary.arbitrary[Double]
} yield A(controller, id, x)
val B1 = for {
controller <- obj.ctrl
id <- obj.idz
y <- Arbitrary.arbitrary[Double]
} yield B(controller, id, y)
}
class Something extends PropSpec with PropertyChecks with Matchers with Generators{
property("Controllers are equal") {
forAll(A1, B1) {
(a:A,b:B) =>
a.controller should be (b.controller)
}
}
property("IDs are equal") {
forAll(A1, B1) {
(a:A,b:B) =>
a.id should be (b.id)
}
}
}
Running sbt test
in terminal gave me the following -
[info] Something:
[info] - Controllers are equal
[info] - IDs are equal *** FAILED ***
[info] TestFailedException was thrown during property evaluation.
[info] Message: 1.1794559135007427E-271 was not equal to 7.871712821709093E212
[info] Location: (testnew.scala:52)
[info] Occurred when passed generated values (
[info] arg0 = A(ABC,1.1794559135007427E-271,-1.6982696700585273E-23),
[info] arg1 = B(ABC,7.871712821709093E212,-8.820696498155311E234)
[info] )
Now it's easy to see why the second property failed. Because every time I yield A1
and B1
I'm yielding a different value for id
and not for ctrl
because it is a constant. The following is my second approach wherein, I create nested for-yield
to try and accomplish my goal -
case class Popo(
controller: String,
id: Double,
someA: Gen[A],
someB: Gen[B]
)
trait Generators {
val obj = for {
ctrl <- Gen.alphaStr
idz <- Arbitrary.arbitrary[Double]
val someA = for {
x <- Arbitrary.arbitrary[Double]
} yield A(ctrl, idz, someA)
val someB = for {
y <- Arbitrary.arbitrary[Double]
} yield B(ctrl, idz, y)
} yield Popo(ctrl, idz, x, someB)
}
class Something extends PropSpec with PropertyChecks with Matchers with Generators{
property("Controllers are equal") {
forAll(obj) {
(x: Popo) =>
forAll(x.someA, x.someB) {
(a:A,b:B) =>
a.controller should be (b.controller)
}
}
}
property("IDs are equal") {
forAll(obj) {
(x: Popo) =>
forAll(x.someA, x.someB) {
(a:A,b:B) =>
a.id should be (b.id)
}
}
}
}
Running sbt test
in the second approach tells me that all tests pass.
[info] Something:
[info] - Controllers are equal
[info] - IDs are equal
[info] ScalaTest
[info] Run completed in 335 milliseconds.
[info] Total number of tests run: 2
[info] Suites: completed 1, aborted 0
[info] Tests: succeeded 2, failed 0, canceled 0, ignored 0, pending 0
[info] All tests passed.
Is there a better/alternative way to reproduce my desired results? Nesting forAll
seems rather clunky to me. If I were to have R -> S -> ... V -> W
in my dependency graph for objects sharing elements then I'll have to create as many nested forAll
.
