# TestNGWrapperSuite

#### class TestNGWrapperSuite extends TestNGSuite

Suite that wraps existing TestNG test suites, described by TestNG XML config files. This class allows existing TestNG tests written in Java to be run by ScalaTest.

One way to use this class is to extend it and provide a list of one or more names of TestNG XML config file names to run. Here's an example:

    class MyWrapperSuite extends TestNGWrapperSuite(
      List("oneTest.xml", "twoTest.xml", "redTest.xml", "blueTest.xml")
    )

You can also specify TestNG XML config files on `Runner`'s command line with `-t` parameters. See the documentation for `Runner` for more information.

To execute `TestNGWrapperSuite`s with ScalaTest's `Runner`, you must include TestNG's jar file on the class path or runpath. This version of `TestNGSuite` was tested with TestNG version 5.7.

    Implicit conversion from `Any` to `Equalizer`, used to enable assertions with `===` comparisons.

    Implicit conversion from `Any` to `Equalizer`, used to enable assertions with `===` comparisons.

    For more information on this mechanism, see the documentation for Equalizer.

    Because trait `Suite` mixes in `Assertions`, this implicit conversion will always be available by default in ScalaTest `Suite`s. This is the only implicit conversion that is in scope by default in every ScalaTest `Suite`. Other implicit conversions offered by ScalaTest, such as those that support the matchers DSL or `invokePrivate`, must be explicitly invited into your test code, either by mixing in a trait or importing the members of its companion object. The reason ScalaTest requires you to invite in implicit conversions (with the exception of the implicit conversion for `===` operator) is because if one of ScalaTest's implicit conversions clashes with an implicit conversion used in the code you are trying to test, your program won't compile. Thus there is a chance that if you are ever trying to use a library or test some code that also offers an implicit conversion involving a `===` operator, you could run into the problem of a compiler error due to an ambiguous implicit conversion. If that happens, you can turn off the implicit conversion offered by this `convertToEqualizer` method simply by overriding the method in your `Suite` subclass, but not marking it as implicit:

        // In your Suite subclass
        override def convertToEqualizer(left: Any) = new Equalizer(left)

15. #### def execute (testName: String = null, configMap: Map[String, Any] = Map(), 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` parameter

    If you leave `testName` at its default value (of `null`), this method will pass `None` to the `testName` parameter of `run`, and as a result all the tests in this suite will be executed. If you specify a `testName`, this method will pass `Some(testName)` to `run`, 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()

    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` parameter

    If you provide a value for the `configMap` parameter, this method will pass it to `run`. If not, the default value of an empty `Map` 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` parameter

    If you leave the `color` parameter unspecified, this method will configure the reporter it passes to `run` to print to the standard output in color (via ansi escape characters). If you don't want color output, specify false for `color`, like this:

        scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute(color = false)

    The `durations` parameter

    If you leave the `durations` parameter unspecified, this method will configure the reporter it passes to `run` to not print durations for tests and suites to the standard output. If you want durations printed, specify true for `durations`, like this:

        scala> (new ExampleSuite).execute(durations = true)

    The `shortstacks` and `fullstacks` parameters

    If you leave both the `shortstacks` and `fullstacks` parameters unspecified, this method will configure the reporter it passes to `run` 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 for `shortstacks`:

        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` and `fullstacks`, you'll get full stack traces.

    The `stats` parameter

    If you leave the `stats` parameter unspecified, this method will not fire `RunStarting` and either `RunCompleted` or `RunAborted` events to the reporter it passes to `run`. If you specify true for `stats`, 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 `run`:

    - `testName` - `None` if this method's `testName` parameter is left at its default value of `null`, else `Some(testName)`.
    - `reporter` - a reporter that prints to the standard output
    - `stopper` - a `Stopper` whose `apply` method always returns `false`
    - `filter` - a `Filter` constructed with `None` for `tagsToInclude` and `Set()` for `tagsToExclude`
    - `configMap` - the `configMap` passed to this method
    - `distributor` - `None`
    - `tracker` - a new `Tracker`

    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 named `run`, this method would have the same name but different arguments than the main `run` 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` is `null`. Normally in Scala the type of `testName` would be `Option[String]` and the default value would be `None`, as it is in this trait's `run` method. The `null` 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 type `String`, as it did in two of the overloaded `execute` methods prior to 1.5. The other reason is that `execute` 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. A `String` type with a `null` default value lets users type `suite.execute("my test name")` rather than `suite.execute(Some("my test name"))`, saving several keystrokes.

    The second non-idiomatic feature is that `shortstacks` and `fullstacks` are all lower case rather than camel case. This is done to be consistent with the `Shell`, which also uses those forms. The reason lower case is used in the `Shell` 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 ScalaTest `Shell`, methods like `shortstacks`, `fullstacks`, and `nostats`, etc., are designed to be all lower case so they feel more like shell commands than methods.

    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 just `Throwable` 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 as `String`, for example), this method will complete abruptly with a `TestFailedException`.

32. #### def pending : PendingNothing

    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 with `TestPendingException`. Because tests in ScalaTest can be designated as pending with `TestPendingException`, 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 with `TestPendingException`, 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 in `pending()`. 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 as `FunSuite` or `Spec` 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.

33. #### def pendingUntilFixed (f: ⇒ Unit): Unit

    Execute the passed block of code, and if it completes abruptly, throw `TestPendingException`, else throw `TestFailedException`.

    Execute the passed block of code, and if it completes abruptly, throw `TestPendingException`, else throw `TestFailedException`.

    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, a `pendingUntilFixed` 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 remove `pendingUntilFixed` 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 with `pendingUntilFixed` will no longer throw an exception (because the problem has been fixed). This will in turn cause `pendingUntilFixed` to throw `TestFailedException` with a detail message explaining you need to go back and remove the `pendingUntilFixed` call as the problem orginally causing your test code to fail has been fixed.

    testName

      an optional name of one test to run. If `None`, all relevant tests should be run. I.e., `None` acts like a wildcard that means run all relevant tests in this `Suite`.

    reporter

      the `Reporter` to which results will be reported

    stopper

      the `Stopper` that will be consulted to determine whether to stop execution early.

    filter

      a `Filter` with which to filter tests based on their tags

    configMap

      a `Map` of key-value pairs that can be used by the executing `Suite` of tests.

    distributor

      an optional `Distributor`, into which to put nested `Suite`s to be run by another entity, such as concurrently by a pool of threads. If `None`, nested `Suite`s will be run sequentially.

    tracker

      a `Tracker` tracking `Ordinal`s being fired by the current thread.

38. #### def suiteName : String

    A user-friendly suite name for this `Suite`.

    A user-friendly suite name for this `Suite`.

    This trait's implementation of this method returns the simple name of this object's class. This trait's implementation of `runNestedSuites` calls this method to obtain a name for `Report`s to pass to the `suiteStarting`, `suiteCompleted`, and `suiteAborted` methods of the `Reporter`.

    returns

      this `Suite` object's suite name.

40. #### def tags : Map[String, Set[String]]

    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.

    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`.

    This trait's implementation of this method uses Java reflection to discover any Java annotations attached to its test methods. The fully qualified name of each unique annotation that extends `TagAnnotation` is considered a tag. This trait's implementation of this method, therefore, places one key/value pair into to the `Map` for each unique tag annotation name discovered through reflection. The mapped value for each tag name key will contain the test method name, as provided via the `testNames` method.

    Subclasses may override 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`.

41. #### def testNames : Set[String]

    A `Set` of test names.

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

    This trait's implementation of this method uses Java reflection to discover all public methods whose name starts with `"test"`, which take either nothing or a single `Informer` as parameters. For each discovered test method, it assigns a test name comprised of just the method name if the method takes no parameters, or the method name plus `(Informer)` if the method takes a `Informer`. Here are a few method signatures and the names that this trait's implementation assigns them:

        def testCat() {}         // test name: "testCat"
        def testCat(Informer) {} // test name: "testCat(Informer)"
        def testDog() {}         // test name: "testDog"
        def testDog(Informer) {} // test name: "testDog(Informer)"
        def test() {}            // test name: "test"
        def test(Informer) {}    // test name: "test(Informer)"

    This trait's implementation of this method returns an immutable `Set` of all such names, excluding the name `testNames`. The iterator obtained by invoking `elements` on this returned `Set` will produce the test names in their natural order, as determined by `String`'s `compareTo` method.

    This trait's implementation of `runTests` invokes this method and calls `runTest` for each test name in the order they appear in the returned `Set`'s iterator. Although this trait's implementation of this method returns 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 override this method and return test names in an undefined order, or in a defined order that's different from `String`'s natural order.

    Subclasses may override this method to produce test names in a custom manner. One potential reason to override `testNames` is to run tests in a different order, for example, to ensure that tests that depend on other tests are run after those other tests. Another potential reason to override is allow tests to be defined in a different manner, such as methods annotated `@Test` annotations (as is done in `JUnitSuite` and `TestNGSuite`) or test functions registered during construction (as is done in `FunSuite` and `Spec`).

46. #### def withClue (clue: Any)(fun: ⇒ Unit): Unit

    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
