OmnisTAP

OmnisTAP is a Test Anything Protocol producer for Omnis Studio.

Full documentation is available in the wiki.

Features

• Assertions comparing primitive Omnis types, include lists and row
• Assertions for the existence of classes, libraries, xcomps, and files
• Startup and shutdown methods for a test run
• Setup and teardown methods for each test
• Automatic testing for:
  • Leaking object references
  • Leaking window instances
  • Unit tests running too long
• A full-featured and expressive mocking utility
• Storing, mocking and automatically restoring task variables during a test run
• Running tests in the Omnis IDE
• Running tests from the command-line using OmnisCLI
• Measuring code coverage and test performance

TAP specification support

Supported:

• Pass (ok) and fail (not ok) assertions
• Diagnostic messages

Not yet supported:

• Plans (OmnisTAP automatically generates a plan for the number of tests run, xUnit-style)
• Bailing out
• Skipping tests (although this is easy to code into your tests)
• Marking tests as TODO (although you can add this note to your test message)

Requirements

• Omnis Studio 8.1.x
• macOS 10.9+
• Windows 7+

Examples

OmnisTAP code

Do ioTAP.$ok(1=1,"1 equals 1")
Do ioTAP.$is_char(low("FOO"),"foo","low() works")
Do ioTAP.$isnotclear($libs.$findname("omnistap_example"),"Our library is open")

Raw TAP output

Installation

Clone this repository to a working directory:

git clone https://github.com/suransys/omnistap.git

Quickstart

Add OmnisTAP to your library

1. Open omnistap/lib/[your Omnis version]/omnistap.lbs in Omnis Studio
2. Set your library's startup task to subclass omnistap.kgTAPTask
3. Restart your library's startup task

Add a test

1. Create a object class in your library named _oHelloOmnisTAP
2. Set _oHelloOmnisTAP to subclass omnistap.ogTAPSuper

3. Add the method $u_sayHello to _oHelloOmnisTAP with this code

   Do ioTAP.$pass("Hello OmnisTAP!")

4. Go to TAP -> Test Current Class
5. You will see this output:

Run from the command line

1. Follow the OmnisCLI guide to install OmnisCLI
2. Ensure your startup task's construct has this code:

   Do $cinst.$processCLI() Returns lbCLIRun
   If lbCLIRun=kTrue
       Quit method
   End If

3. Ensure omnistap.lbs, omniscli.lbs, and your library are opened at startup

4. Run this command from a command prompt:

   [path to bin/omniscli] runtests [path to tap output directory]
