These matchers are inspired by and mostly compatible with +// Google Test for C++ and Google JS Test. +// +// This package is used by github.com/smartystreets/assertions/internal/ogletest and +// github.com/smartystreets/assertions/internal/oglemock, which may be more directly useful if you're not +// writing your own testing package or defining your own matchers. +package oglematchers + +// A Matcher is some predicate implicitly defining a set of values that it +// matches. For example, GreaterThan(17) matches all numeric values greater +// than 17, and HasSubstr("taco") matches all strings with the substring +// "taco". +// +// Matchers are typically exposed to tests via constructor functions like +// HasSubstr. In order to implement such a function you can either define your +// own matcher type or use NewMatcher. +type Matcher interface { + // Check whether the supplied value belongs to the the set defined by the + // matcher. Return a non-nil error if and only if it does not. + // + // The error describes why the value doesn't match. The error text is a + // relative clause that is suitable for being placed after the value. For + // example, a predicate that matches strings with a particular substring may, + // when presented with a numerical value, return the following error text: + // + // "which is not a string" + // + // Then the failure message may look like: + // + // Expected: has substring "taco" + // Actual: 17, which is not a string + // + // If the error is self-apparent based on the description of the matcher, the + // error text may be empty (but the error still non-nil). For example: + // + // Expected: 17 + // Actual: 19 + // + // If you are implementing a new matcher, see also the documentation on + // FatalError. + Matches(candidate interface{}) error + + // Description returns a string describing the property that values matching + // this matcher have, as a verb phrase where the subject is the value. For + // example, "is greather than 17" or "has substring "taco"". + Description() string +} + +// FatalError is an implementation of the error interface that may be returned +// from matchers, indicating the error should be propagated. Returning a +// *FatalError indicates that the matcher doesn't process values of the +// supplied type, or otherwise doesn't know how to handle the value. +// +// For example, if GreaterThan(17) returned false for the value "taco" without +// a fatal error, then Not(GreaterThan(17)) would return true. This is +// technically correct, but is surprising and may mask failures where the wrong +// sort of matcher is accidentally used. Instead, GreaterThan(17) can return a +// fatal error, which will be propagated by Not(). +type FatalError struct { + errorText string +} + +// NewFatalError creates a FatalError struct with the supplied error text. +func NewFatalError(s string) *FatalError { + return &FatalError{s} +} + +func (e *FatalError) Error() string { + return e.errorText +} |
