Assert-Rx
DEPRECATED!
As of RxJava 1.3, fluent assertions will be part of the RxJava 1.x library. You should use the official equivalent instead. The official assertions are assertion library agnostic and use the same API as RxJava 2.x, which should help you make the transition should you chose to.
Only use this library if somehow you cannot to update to RxJava 1.3.
Every library has its lifespan and this one's has ended. Thank you for your interest!
A fluent assertion wrapper to simplify and improve usability of RxJava's TestSubscriber assertions, built upon the AssertJ framework.
Purpose
Although TestSubscriber
provides some very handy assertions to test your Observables, it can be a bit tedious and verbose to use. For example, to test the last value in a sequence you would typically write:
TestSubscriber<String> ts = ...... // subscribe to your Observable with TestSubscriber
ts.assertNoErrors();
List<String> values = ts.getOnNextEvents();
assertThat(values.get(values.size() - 1)).isEqualTo("expectedValue");
This library makes this more readable by allowing you to express assertions in a fluent style:
TestSubscriber<String> ts = ...... // subscribe to your Observable with TestSubscriber
assertThat(ts).hasNoErrors()
.hasReceivedLastValue("expectedValue");
In addition to this wrapping, it provides some higher order assertions to allow for testing of specific conditions.
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedFirstValueWhich()
.is(notEmptyOrNull());
Where notEmptyOrNull
is a reusable, AssertJ Condition.
Usage
Here are a few examples of the assertions performed using Assert-Rx.
OnNext Assertions
Assert that the subscriber received any single onNext value:
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedAnyValue();
Assert that the subscriber has received one or more onNext values:
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedAnyValues();
Multiple, in-order values:
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedValues("a", "b", "c");
Assert conditions for single onNext events (currently only as Object
instances):
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedValueWhich()
.is(notEmptyOrNull());
Assert conditions for the entire onNext value sequence:
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedValuesWhich()
.doesNotContain(someObject);
Assert the first or last received onNext values:
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedFirstValue("the first value");
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedLastValue("the last value");
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedFirstValueWhich()
.is(notEmptyOrNull());
assertThat(ts).hasReceivedLastValueWhich()
.is(notEmptyOrNull());
OnError Assertions
Received an IOException
instance in onError
:
assertThat(ts).hasError(IOException.class);
Assert conditions for onError events (currently only as Throwable
instances):
assertThat(ts).hasErrorWhich()
.hasMessageStartingWith("A terrible error");
Concurrency Handling
Handle concurrency, by ensuring that the TestSubscriber
awaits a terminal event before asserting:
assertThat(ts).afterTerminalEvent()
.hasNoErrors()
.hasReceivedValue("someValue")
.hasCompleted();
Download
Releases are available as dependencies via Jitpack.
Implementation
The library is built as an extension to the AssertJ framework, but to avoid duplication of the assertion logic in TestSubscriber
, in most cases it simply calls through to the TestSubscriber
assertion methods. The exceptions to this are the higher level assertions, which are provided by returning instances of AssertJ assertions.
