Introduction

Tests are split into language and environment. That is, the language being tested, and the environment running the test code.

Curriculum Helpers

concatRegex

Combines one or more regular expressions into one.

const regex1 = /a\s/;
const regex2 = /b/;
concatRegex(regex1, regex2).source === "a\\sb";

AST-based helpers

In contrast to the regex-based helpers, these helpers need to be run in Python, not JavaScript

Formatting output

str returns a string that would parse to the same AST as the node. For example:

function_str = """
def foo():
  # will not be in the output
  x = 1

"""
output_str = """
def foo():
    x = 1"""
str(Node(function_str)) == output_str # True

The output and source string compile to the same AST, but the output is indented with 4 spaces. Comments and trailing whitespace are removed.

Finding nodes

find_ functions search the current scope and return one of the following:

  • A single Node object if there can be only one match. E.g. find_function
  • A list of Node objects if there can be multiple matches. E.g.: find_ifs

find_function

Node('def foo():\n  x = "1"').find_function("foo").has_variable("x") # True

find_async_function

Node('async def foo():\n  await bar()').find_async_function("foo").is_equivalent("async def foo():\n  await bar()") # True

find_awaits

code_str = """
async def foo(spam):
  if spam:
    await spam()
  await bar()
  await func()
"""
explorer = Node(code_str)
explorer.find_async_function("foo").find_awaits()[0].is_equivalent("await bar()") # True
explorer.find_async_function("foo").find_awaits()[1].is_equivalent("await func()") # True
explorer.find_async_function("foo").find_ifs()[0].find_awaits()[0].is_equivalent("await spam()") # True

find_variable

Node("y = 2\nx = 1").find_variable("x").is_equivalent("x = 1")
Node("a: int = 1").find_variable("a").is_equivalent("a: int = 1")
Node("self.spam = spam").find_variable("self.spam").is_equivalent("self.spam = spam")

find_aug_variable

Node("x += 1").find_aug_variable("x").is_equivalent("x += 1")
Node("x -= 1").find_aug_variable("x").is_equivalent("x -= 1")

When the variable is out of scope, find_variable returns an None node (i.e. Node() or Node(None)):

Node('def foo():\n  x = "1"').find_variable("x") == Node() # True

find_body

func_str = """

Misc

is_equivalent

This is a somewhat loose check. The AST of the target string and the AST of the node do not have to be identical, but the code must be equivalent.

Node("x = 1").is_equivalent("x = 1") # True
Node("\nx = 1").is_equivalent("x =    1") # True
Node("x = 1").is_equivalent("x = 2") # False

is_empty

This is syntactic sugar for == Node().

Node().is_empty() # True
Node("x = 1").find_variable("x").is_empty() # False

get the nth statement

stmts = """
if True:
  pass

x = 1
"""

Node(stmts).get_nth_statement(1).is_equivalent("x = 1") # True

value_is_call

This allows you to check if the return value of function call is assigned to a variable.

explorer = Node("def foo():\n  x = bar()")

explorer.find_function("foo").find_variable("x").value_is_call("bar") # True

is_integer

Node("x = 1").find_variable("x").is_integer() # True
Node("x = '1'").find_variable("x").is_integer() # False

inherits_from

Node("class C(A, B):\n  pass").find_class("C").inherits_from("A") # True
Node("class C(A, B):\n  pass").find_class("C").inherits_from("A", "B") # True

Notes on Python

  • Python does not allow newline characters between keywords and their arguments. E.g:
def
    add(x, y):
    return x + y
  • Python does allow newline characters between function arguments. E.g:
def add(
  x,
  y
):
    return x + y

Common Tools

Some of the examples assume global access to the above tools. Usage of these helpers is denoted by code referencing __helpers or __pyodide.

Testing in General

Tips

For any test of any language, the result should be preferred to be tested as opposed to the implementation. For example, if testing a function that adds two numbers, assume the body of the function is unknown, and test the result of running the function with various inputs.

This cannot be done in all cases. E.g:

  • Testing Rust in the browser with no way to compile/run the code
  • The code does not run, because it is incomplete or contains syntax errors

freeCodeCamp

Note

2023/12/03: The below might be outdated, by the time you read

The freeCodeCamp editor/test-runner uses \r\n as line endings. This needs to be taken into account when directly writing tests on the code strings.

Rust

Regex

Testing a struct:

const code = `
fn main() {
  let _ = StructName {
    one_field: 1,
    field_name: [1, 2]
  };
}

struct StructName {
  one_field: usize,
  field_name: [usize; 2]
}
`;
{
  const struct = code.match(/struct StructName[^\{]*?{([^\}]*)}/s)?.[1];
  console.assert(struct.match(/field_name\s*:/));
  console.log(struct);
}

Remove two or more space/tab characters to reduce the number of \s checks:

const code = `
fn main() {
  let _ = StructName {
    one_field: "example",
    field_name: [1, 2]
  };
}

struct     StructName<'a> {
  one_field : &'a str ,
  field_name: [usize; 2]
}
`;
{
  // Keywords **require** one or more spaces. So, replace instances of 2+ spaces
  // with one space, to turn `/struct\s+StringName/` into `/struct StringName/`
  const reducedCode = code.replaceAll(/[ \t]{2,}/g, ' ');
  const struct = reducedCode.match(/struct StructName[^\{]*?{([^\}]*)}/s)?.[1];
  console.assert(struct.match(/field_name\s*:/));
  console.log(struct);
}
