minitest-macruby provides extensions to minitest for macruby UI testing. It provides a framework to test GUI apps in a live instance. Documentation and examples are light at the moment as I've just thrown this together. Suggestions for extensions are very welcome!

Currently it provides the following methods in minitest's assertions:

• self.runmacrubytests
• finduimenu(*path)
• finduimenu_items menu
• assertuimenu menu, *items
• finduimenu_item(*path)
• assertuiaction obj, target, action, key = nil
• assertuibinding item, binding_name, target, path

minitest/unit is a small and fast replacement for ruby's huge and slow test/unit. This is meant to be clean and easy to use both as a regular test writer and for language implementors that need a minimal set of methods to bootstrap a working unit test suite.

mini/spec is a functionally complete spec engine.

mini/mock, by Steven Baker, is a beautifully tiny mock object framework.

(This package was called miniunit once upon a time)

Changes:

1.7.0 / 2010-07-15

  • Added assertsilent (mapped to mustbe_silent).
  • Added examples to readme (Mike Dalessio)
  • Added options output at the top of the run, for fatal run debugging (tenderlove)
  • Spec's describe method returns created class
