public class TestCase
extends junit.framework.TestCase

This class extends TestCase, providing some additional assertions and methods for providing test data for convenience. All the existing methods of TestCase are simply delegated to the superclass.

Some of the methods are concerned with providing random values; these are deterministic in that the random seed is set to a fixed value when the test case is initialised, so a given test should always be working with the same data, though the same call twice in a given test will provide different random data.

Method Detail

assertArrayEquals

public void assertArrayEquals(java.lang.String message,
                              java.lang.Object expected,
                              java.lang.Object actual)

Asserts that two arrays have exactly the same contents. For the assertion to be true, expected and actual must both be array objects whose component types are of the same class; they must have the same number of elements; and the ith element of expected must be `equal' to the ith element of actual. `Equality' in this sense depends on the types of the arrays: if they are arrays of a primitive type, the primitive values must be equal, and if they are object arrays equality is assessed using the Object.equals(java.lang.Object) method. In the case of float[] and double[] arrays, elements which both have the value NaN are taken to match.

Parameters:

message - the message to output if the assertion fails

expected - the expected array object

actual - the actual array object

Throws:

junit.framework.AssertionFailedError - if the assertion is untrue

assertArrayNotEquals

public void assertArrayNotEquals(java.lang.String message,
                                 java.lang.Object expected,
                                 java.lang.Object actual)

Asserts that two objects are not arrays with the same contents. This assertion has exactly the opposite sense to that of assertArrayEquals(String,Object,Object).

Parameters:

message - the message to output if the assertion fails

expected - the expected array object

actual - the actual array object, asserted not to match expected

Throws:

junit.framework.AssertionFailedError - if the assertion is untrue

assertArrayEquals

public void assertArrayEquals(java.lang.Object expected,
                              java.lang.Object actual)

Asserts that two arrays have exactly the same contents. For the assertion to be true, expected and actual must both be array objects whose component types are of the same class; they must have the same number of elements; and the ith element of expected must be `equal' to the ith element of actual. `Equality' in this sense depends on the types of the arrays: if they are arrays of a primitive type, the primitive values must be equal, and if they are object arrays equality is assessed using the Object.equals(java.lang.Object) method. In the case of float[] and double[] arrays, elements which both have the value NaN are taken to match.

Parameters:

expected - the expected array object

actual - the actual array object

Throws:

junit.framework.AssertionFailedError - if the assertion is untrue

assertArrayNotEquals

public void assertArrayNotEquals(java.lang.Object expected,
                                 java.lang.Object actual)

Asserts that two objects are not arrays with the same contents. This assertion has exactly the opposite sense to that of assertArrayEquals(Object,Object).

Parameters:

expected - the expected array object

actual - the actual array object, asserted not to match expected

Throws:

junit.framework.AssertionFailedError - if the assertion is untrue

assertArrayEquals

public void assertArrayEquals(java.lang.String message,
                              java.lang.Object expected,
                              java.lang.Object actual,
                              double delta)

Asserts that two numeric arrays have the same contents within a given tolerance. For the assertion to be true, expected and actual must both be primitive numeric array objects whose component types are of the same class; they must have the same number of elements; and the ith element of expected must be `equal' to the ith element of actual. Equality in this sense normally means (abs(expected[i]-actual[i]<delta), but in the case of float[] and double[] arrays, elements which both have the value NaN are taken to match, and if the expected element is infinite, then delta is ignored.

If delta<1 and the arrays are of integer type, this method does the same as assertArrayEquals(String,Object,Object).

Parameters:

message - the message to output if the assertion fails

expected - the array object containing the expected values

actual - the array object containing the actual values

delta - the tolerance acceptable between values

Throws:

junit.framework.AssertionFailedError - if the assertion is untrue

                                 double delta)

Asserts that two objects are not numeric arrays having the same contents within a given tolerance. This assertion has exactly the opposite sense to that of assertArrayEquals(String,Object,Object,double).

Parameters:

For the assertion to be true, expected and actual must both be primitive numeric array objects whose component types are of the same class; they must have the same number of elements; and the ith element of expected must be `equal' to the ith element of actual. Equality in this sense normally means (abs(expected[i]-actual[i]<delta), but in the case of float[] and double[] arrays, elements which both have the value NaN are taken to match, and if the expected element is infinite, then delta is ignored.

Asserts that two DOMs are equal.

If an assertion fails, the method indicates the location by showing in the failure message the location of the mismatched node, so that

 AssertionFailedError: .../test.xml:/[1]ndx/[2]data
 expected: ...
 

indicates that the assertion failed when examining the second child node (which was a <data> element) of the first child of the file test.xml

If the flags argument is non-zero, it indicates a set of tests on the DOM to omit. The value is ORed together from the following constants:

TestCase.IGNORE_ATTRIBUTE_PRESENCE

do not check whether attributes match

TestCase.IGNORE_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE

check that the same attributes are present on the corresponding elements in the tree, but do not check their values

TestCase.IGNORE_WHITESPACE

skip whitespace-only text nodes

TestCase.IGNORE_COMMENTS

skip comment nodes

Parameters:

expected - the Node containing the expected DOM

actual - the Node to be tested

context - a string indicating the context, which will be used in assertion failure reports. May be null

flags - a set of flags indicating which node tests to omit. Passing as zero includes all tests.

Asserts that the contents of a stream are valid XML. The stream is passed through a validating XML parser. Badly-formed XML, or failure to conform to any DTD or schema referenced in the document's declaration will result in a SAXParseException.

Entity resolution is done using an instance of StarEntityResolver.

Parameters:

message - message associated with assertion failure

public void assertValidXML(org.xml.sax.InputSource isrc)
                    throws java.io.IOException,
                           org.xml.sax.SAXException

Asserts that the contents of a stream are valid XML. The stream is passed through a validating XML parser. Badly-formed XML, or failure to conform to any DTD or schema referenced in the document's declaration will result in a SAXParseException.

Parameters:

isrc - input stream containing an XML document

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if there is an error reading strm

org.xml.sax.SAXException - if the document in strm is badly-formed or invalid

fillRandom

public void fillRandom(java.lang.Object array,
                       double min,
                       double max)

Fills a given array with random numbers between two floating point values. If the supplied minimum and maximum values are outside the range appropriate for the primitive type in question the range will be suitably clipped.

Parameters:

array - an array of primitives to be filled with random values

min - the smallest value which will be used (will be converted to the appropriate primitive type)

max - the largest value which will be used (will be converted to the appropriate primitive type)

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if array is not an array of a suitable primitive type

fillRandom

public void fillRandom(java.lang.Object array,
                       int min,
                       int max)

Fills a given array with random numbers between two integer values. If the supplied minimum and maximum values are outside the range appropriate for the primitive type in question the range will be suitably clipped.

Parameters:

array - an array of primitives to be filled with random values

min - the smallest value which will be used (will be converted to the appropriate primitive type)

max - the largest value which will be used (will be converted to the appropriate primitive type)

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if array is not an array of a suitable primitive type

fillCycle

public void fillCycle(java.lang.Object array,
                      int min,
                      int max)

Fills a given array with a regular pattern of integer values. The elements of the array will take the values min, min+1, min+2 .. max-1, min, min+1, min+2.. and so on. If the max<min then the values will start at min and keep increasing.

The results might not be as expected if you use a min and max values outside the range of the numeric type in question.

Parameters:

array - an array of primitives to be filled with cycling values

min - the first value

max - the highest value, or if less than min an indication that there is no maximum

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if array is not an array of a suitable primitive type

fillCycle

public void fillCycle(java.lang.Object destArray,
                      java.lang.Object sourceArray)

Fills a given array with a pattern of values taken from another one. destArray is filled up with copies of sourceArray. destArray and sourceArray must be arrays of the same class (but can be different lengths of course).

Parameters:

destArray - array to be filled with items

sourceArray - array containing source items

isHeadless

public static boolean isHeadless()

Tests whether or not a display, keyboard and mouse can in fact be supported in this environment. This differs from the GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless() method in that this one tries to do some graphics and if it catches a throwable as a consequence it will return true.
