VsTestClassBase.Assert Method
Supports assertion handling in the generated test cases.
Namespace: Microsoft.SpecExplorer.Runtime.Testing
Assembly: Microsoft.SpecExplorer.Runtime.VisualStudio (in Microsoft.SpecExplorer.Runtime.VisualStudio.dll)
Usage
'Usage
Syntax
'Declaration
public override void Assert (
bool condition,
string description
)
Parameters
- condition
The condition to check.
- description
The message to include in the exception that is thrown when condition is false.
Remarks
When Spec Explorer produces a step based on a rule that contains a call to the Condition.AssertIsTrue method, the generated test case calls the Assert method of its test manager. The test manager then calls the Assert method of the test class. The test manager for the test is initialized in the InitializeTestManager method.
This method throws an AssertFailedException to indicate that condition is false.
If the TestMethodReturnType switch is set to none or "void", the TestPassedReturnValue, TestFailedReturnValue, and TestFailedExceptionType switches are ignored, and exceptions are not caught by the test case; that is, any exceptions generated by the test case are thrown to and handled by the test harness.
If the TestMethodReturnType, TestPassedReturnValue, and TestFailedReturnValue switches are set to something other than their default values, each test case is wrapped in a try-catch block. If, in addition, the TestFailedExceptionType switch is set to a value other than none, each test case is wrapped in a try-catch block that catches only the specified exception type. Such exceptions specifically indicate that the test case encountered a conformance error, and the test manager raises such exceptions only if the test manager's ThrowTestFailureException property is set to true.
Thread Safety
Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
