a shiny test framework for rust

Ooh, shiny!

Shiny makes you less distracted with copying over initialization code in test cases. It also has a fancy syntax similar to Ruby's RSpec or Objective-C's Kiwi.

Installation

Install in the usual way with cargo.

Usage

Add the shiny crate:

#![feature(plugin)]
#![plugin(shiny)]

Write your shiny test case:

#[cfg(test)]
mod test {
  describe!(
    before_each {
      let awesome = true;
    }

    it "is awesome" {
      assert!(awesome);
    }

    it "injects before_each into all test cases" {
      let still_awesome = awesome;
      assert!(still_awesome);
    }
  )
}

All the items from before_each are inserted as-is into each generated test case function. Mind the final semicolon in before_each block!

TODO

• add support for context to do recursive prologue injections
• better filtering for test case name
