如何编写只有在函数没有抛出预期异常时才会失败的单元测试呢?
当前回答
从http://www.lengrand.fr/2011/12/pythonunittest-assertraises-raises-error/:
首先，这里是dum_function.py文件中对应的(仍然是dum:p)函数:
def square_value(a):
"""
Returns the square value of a.
"""
try:
out = a*a
except TypeError:
raise TypeError("Input should be a string:")
return out
下面是要执行的测试(只插入这个测试):
import dum_function as df # Import function module
import unittest
class Test(unittest.TestCase):
"""
The class inherits from unittest
"""
def setUp(self):
"""
This method is called before each test
"""
self.false_int = "A"
def tearDown(self):
"""
This method is called after each test
"""
pass
#---
## TESTS
def test_square_value(self):
# assertRaises(excClass, callableObj) prototype
self.assertRaises(TypeError, df.square_value(self.false_int))
if __name__ == "__main__":
unittest.main()
现在我们准备好测试我们的函数了!下面是运行测试时发生的情况:
======================================================================
ERROR: test_square_value (__main__.Test)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test_dum_function.py", line 22, in test_square_value
self.assertRaises(TypeError, df.square_value(self.false_int))
File "/home/jlengrand/Desktop/function.py", line 8, in square_value
raise TypeError("Input should be a string:")
TypeError: Input should be a string:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 1 test in 0.000s
FAILED (errors=1)
TypeError实际上被引发，并生成一个测试失败。问题是，这正是我们想要的行为:s。
要避免此错误，只需在测试调用中使用lambda运行函数:
self.assertRaises(TypeError, lambda: df.square_value(self.false_int))
最终输出:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 1 test in 0.000s
OK
完美!
．.． 对我来说也是完美的!!
非常感谢，Julien Lengrand-Lambert先生。
这个测试断言实际上返回一个假阳性。这是因为'assertRaises'中的lambda是引发类型错误的单元，而不是被测试的函数。
其他回答
由于我还没有看到任何关于如何检查我们是否在使用上下文管理器的接受列表中获得特定异常的详细解释，或其他异常细节，我将添加我的(在Python 3.8上检查)。
如果我只是想检查函数是否引发实例TypeError，我会写:
with self.assertRaises(TypeError):
function_raising_some_exception(parameters)
如果我想检查函数是否引发TypeError或IndexError，我会写:
with self.assertRaises((TypeError,IndexError)):
function_raising_some_exception(parameters)
如果我想要更多关于异常引发的细节，我可以在这样的上下文中捕获它:
# Here I catch any exception
with self.assertRaises(Exception) as e:
function_raising_some_exception(parameters)
# Here I check actual exception type (but I could
# check anything else about that specific exception,
# like it's actual message or values stored in the exception)
self.assertTrue(type(e.exception) in [TypeError,MatrixIsSingular])
使用TestCase。从unittest模块中assertRaises(或testcase . failunlessraised)，例如:
import mymod
class MyTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
def test1(self):
self.assertRaises(SomeCoolException, mymod.myfunc)

这里有很多答案。该代码展示了如何创建Exception，如何在方法中使用该异常，以及如何在单元测试中验证所引发的正确异常。
import unittest
class DeviceException(Exception):
def __init__(self, msg, code):
self.msg = msg
self.code = code
def __str__(self):
return repr("Error {}: {}".format(self.code, self.msg))
class MyDevice(object):
def __init__(self):
self.name = 'DefaultName'
def setParameter(self, param, value):
if isinstance(value, str):
setattr(self, param , value)
else:
raise DeviceException('Incorrect type of argument passed. Name expects a string', 100001)
def getParameter(self, param):
return getattr(self, param)
class TestMyDevice(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.dev1 = MyDevice()
def tearDown(self):
del self.dev1
def test_name(self):
""" Test for valid input for name parameter """
self.dev1.setParameter('name', 'MyDevice')
name = self.dev1.getParameter('name')
self.assertEqual(name, 'MyDevice')
def test_invalid_name(self):
""" Test to check if error is raised if invalid type of input is provided """
self.assertRaises(DeviceException, self.dev1.setParameter, 'name', 1234)
def test_exception_message(self):
""" Test to check if correct exception message and code is raised when incorrect value is passed """
with self.assertRaises(DeviceException) as cm:
self.dev1.setParameter('name', 1234)
self.assertEqual(cm.exception.msg, 'Incorrect type of argument passed. Name expects a string', 'mismatch in expected error message')
self.assertEqual(cm.exception.code, 100001, 'mismatch in expected error code')
if __name__ == '__main__':
unittest.main()
我几乎在任何地方都使用doctest[1]，因为我喜欢同时记录和测试我的函数。
看看这段代码:
def throw_up(something, gowrong=False):
"""
>>> throw_up('Fish n Chips')
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
Exception: Fish n Chips
>>> throw_up('Fish n Chips', gowrong=True)
'I feel fine!'
"""
if gowrong:
return "I feel fine!"
raise Exception(something)
if __name__ == '__main__':
import doctest
doctest.testmod()
如果您把这个例子放在一个模块中，并从命令行运行它，两个测试用例都会被评估和检查。
