minitest provides a complete suite of testing facilities supporting TDD, BDD, mocking, and benchmarking.

"I had a class with Jim Weirich on testing last week and we were
 allowed to choose our testing frameworks. Kirk Haines and I were
 paired up and we cracked open the code for a few test
 frameworks...

 I MUST say that mintiest is *very* readable / understandable
 compared to the 'other two' options we looked at. Nicely done and
 thank you for helping us keep our mental sanity."

minitest/unit is a small and incredibly fast unit testing framework. It provides a rich set of assertions to make your tests clean and readable.

minitest/spec is a functionally complete spec engine. It hooks onto minitest/unit and seamlessly bridges test assertions over to spec expectations.

minitest/benchmark is an awesome way to assert the performance of your algorithms in a repeatable manner. Now you can assert that your newb co-worker doesn't replace your linear algorithm with an exponential one!

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

minitest/pride shows pride in testing and adds coloring to your test output. I guess it is an example of how to write IO pipes too. :P

minitest/unit is meant to have a clean implementation for language implementors that need a minimal set of methods to bootstrap a working test suite. For example, there is no magic involved for test-case discovery.

 framework that I can actually read in full in one sitting!"

2.10.1 / 2012-01-17

• 1 bug fix:

  • Fixed stupid 1.9 path handling grumble grumble. (graaff)

• https://github.com/seattlerb/minitest

Check this rails test out:

def test_remove_column_with_multi_column_index
  ActiveRecord::Base.connection.create_table(:hats) do |table|
    table.column :hat_name, :string, :limit => 100
    table.column :hat_size, :integer
    table.column :hat_style, :string, :limit => 100
  end
  ActiveRecord::Base.connection.add_index "hats", ["hat_style", "hat_size"], :unique => true

  assert_nothing_raised { Person.connection.remove_column("hats", "hat_size") }
ensure
  ActiveRecord::Base.connection.drop_table(:hats)
end

The file this test came from is chock full of tests written just like this one. What exactly is it testing? The test name implies that it is testing removecolumn when there is a multi-column index. Does the test ensure that removecolumn

Better yet, here's how to make it pass:

def remove_column(*)
end

Tada! No exceptions raised!

This is exactly why minitest doesn't have assert_nothing_raised. You wind up with file after file of useless junk tests.

tenderlove recently converted the rails tests from test/unit to minitest and had to get these tests working since they were all calling assert_nothing_raised. Here is his implementation:

def assert_nothing_raised(*)
  yield
end

Certainly easier to do this than to go through all the tests and remove the call (never mind adding real assertions to make sure something is actually being tested).
