preggy 1.4.4

preggy

preggy is an assertion library for Python. What were you expecting?
Extracted from the PyVows project.
Installing
We recommend using pip:
pip install preggy

Usage
Simply tell your test what to expect():
from preggy import expect

def test_roses_are_red():
rose = Rose()
expect(rose.color).to_equal('red')

def test_violets_are_not_red():
violet = Violet()
expect(violet.color).not_to_equal('red')

Built-in Expectations
Equality
expect(4).to_equal(4)
expect(5).Not.to_equal(4)
expect(5).not_to_equal(4) # same as previous

Comparison
expect(4).to_be_lesser_than(5)
expect(5).to_be_greater_than(4)
expect(5).Not.to_be_lesser_than(4)
expect(4).not_to_be_greater(5) # same as previous

expect(4).to_be_lesser_or_equal_to(5)
expect(4).to_be_lesser_or_equal_to(4)
expect(5).not_to_be_lesser_or_equal_to(4)

expect(5).to_be_greater_or_equal_to(4)
expect(5).to_be_greater_or_equal_to(5)
expect(4).not_to_be_greater_or_equal_to(5)

expect("b").to_be_greater_than("a")
expect("a").to_be_lesser_than("b")

expect([1, 2, 3]).to_be_greater_than([1, 2]) # comparing using length
expect((1, 2, 3)).to_be_greater_than((1, 2)) # comparing using length
expect({ "a": "b", "c": "d" }).to_be_greater_than({ "a": "b" }) # comparing using length of keys

Similarity
expect('sOmE RandOm     CAse StRiNG').to_be_like('some random case string')

expect(1).to_be_like(1)
expect(1).to_be_like(1.0)

expect({ 'some': 1, 'key': 2 }).to_be_like({ 'key': 2, 'some': 1 })

expect('sOmE RandOm     CAse StRiNG').Not.to_be_like('other string')
expect('sOmE RandOm     CAse StRiNG').not_to_be_like('other string') # same as previous

expect(1).not_to_be_like(2)
expect([[1, 2], [3,4]]).not_to_be_like([4, 4], [2, 1]])
expect({ 'some': 1, 'key': 2 }).not_to_be_like({ 'key': 3, 'some': 4 })

True / False

expect('some').to_be_true()
expect([1, 2, 3]).to_be_true()
expect({ 'a': 'b' }).to_be_true()
expect(1).to_be_true()

expect(False).to_be_false() # not_to_be_true() would work, too. but, it's so...eww
expect(None).to_be_false()
expect('').to_be_false()
expect(0).to_be_false()
expect([]).to_be_false()
expect({}).to_be_false()

None
expect(None).to_be_null()

expect('some').not_to_be_null() # same as previous

Inclusion
expect([1, 2, 3]).to_include(2)
expect((1, 2, 3)).to_include(2)
expect('123').to_include('2')
expect({ 'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}).to_include('b')

expect([1, 3]).Not.to_include(2) # or, exclusion...

Regular Expressions
expect('some').to_match(r'^[a-z]+')
expect('Some').Not.to_match(r'^[a-z]+')

Length
expect([1, 2, 3]).to_length(3)
expect((1, 2, 3)).to_length(3)
expect('abc').to_length(3)
expect({ 'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}).to_length(3)
expect(lifo_queue).to_length(2)
expect(queue).to_length(3)

expect([1]).Not.to_length(3)
expect([1]).not_to_length(3) # same as previous

Emptiness
expect([]).to_be_empty()
expect(tuple()).to_be_empty()
expect({}).to_be_empty()
expect('').to_be_empty()

expect([1]).not_to_be_empty()
expect((1,2)).not_to_be_empty()
expect({'a': 1}).not_to_be_empty()
expect('roses are red').not_to_be_empty()

Exceptions
expect(RuntimeError()).to_be_an_error()
expect(RuntimeError()).to_be_an_error_like(RuntimeError)
expect(ValueError('error')).to_have_an_error_message_of('error')

expect("I'm not an error").Not.to_be_an_error()
expect(ValueError()).Not.to_be_an_error_like(RuntimeError)
expect(ValueError('some')).Not.to_have_an_error_message_of('error')

# when expecting a method to error
err = expect.error_to_happen(RuntimeError) # attribute to a variable so you can use the exception later

with err:
raise RuntimeError("something is wrong")

expect(err).to_have_an_error_message_of('something is wrong')

# or the shorter version
with expect.error_to_happen(RuntimeError, message="something is wrong"):
raise RuntimeError("something is wrong")

# or if you don't care about the message:
with expect.error_to_happen(RuntimeError):
raise RuntimeError("something is wrong")

# or if you need to make sure error does not happen
with expect.error_not_to_happen(RuntimeError, message="something is wrong"):
raise RuntimeError("something is wrong") # Fails with AssertionError

# or if you don't care about the message, only that the error does not happen:
with expect.error_not_to_happen(RuntimeError):
raise RuntimeError("something is wrong") # Fails with AssertionError

Failure
expect.not_to_be_here() # raises AssertionError

# raises AssertionError with error message
expect.not_to_be_here("some error message")

Chained Assertions
# assertions may be chained, for brevity:
expect(6).not_to_be_null().to_equal(6)

# a more *sensible* example:
expect(foo).not_to_be_null().to_equal(expected.get('foo'))
