AlephExpectation

Base class: Object

Represents an expectation created by expect inside an active Aleph test.

Expectation values hold the actual value being checked and expose matcher methods such as to_equal, to_contain, and to_throw_message. Expectations only work while a test body, before_each hook, or after_each hook is actively executing.

Example

test "expectation value" {
  var expectation = expect("aleph")
  expectation.to_contain("lep")
}

Members

to_be_greater_or_equal_than	Records a failure unless the actual numeric value is greater than or equal to expected.
to_be_greater_than	Records a failure unless the actual numeric value is greater than expected.
to_be_less_or_equal_than	Records a failure unless the actual numeric value is less than or equal to expected.
to_be_less_than	Records a failure unless the actual numeric value is less than expected.
to_contain	Records a failure unless the actual value contains the expected value.
to_equal	Records a failure unless the actual value equals the expected value.
to_have_length	Records a failure unless the actual value has the expected size.
to_have_type	Records a failure unless the actual value has the expected Aleph type name.
to_satisfy	Records a failure unless the predicate returns true for the actual value.

to_throw_message	Records a failure unless the expected action throws a matching message.
