第 14 章 以测试优先为原则的编程

14.1. roman.py, 第 1 阶段

到目前为止,单元测试已经完成,是时候开始编写被单元测试测试的代码的时候了。你将分阶段地完成这个工作,因此开始时所有的单元测试都是失败的,但在逐步完成 roman.py 的同时你会看到它们一个个地通过(测试) 。

例 14.1. roman1.py

这个程序可以在例子目录下的 py/roman/stage1/ 目录中找到。

"""Convert to and from Roman numerals"""

#Define exceptions
class RomanError(Exception): pass                1
class OutOfRangeError(RomanError): pass          2
class NotIntegerError(RomanError): pass
class InvalidRomanNumeralError(RomanError): pass 3

def toRoman(n):
    """convert integer to Roman numeral"""
    pass                                         4

def fromRoman(s):
    """convert Roman numeral to integer"""
    pass
1 这是如何定义你自己的 Python 异常。异常也是类,通过继承已有的异常,你可以创建自定义的异常。 强烈建议(但不是必须)你继承 Exception 来定义自己的异常,因为它是所有内建异常的基类。 这里我定义了 RomanError (从 Exception 继承而来)作为我所有自定义异常的基类。 这是一个风格问题,我也可以直接从 Exception 继承建立每一个自定义异常。
2 OutOfRangeErrorNotIntegerError 异常将会最终被用于 toRoman 以标示不同类型的无效输入,更具体而言就是 ToRomanBadInput 测试的那些。
3 InvalidRomanNumeralError 将被最终用于 fromRoman 以标示无效输入,具体而言就是 FromRomanBadInput测试的那些。
4 在这一步中你只是想定义每个函数的 API ,而不想具体实现它们,因此你以 Python 关键字 pass 姑且带过。

重要的时刻到了(请打起鼓来):你终于要对这个简陋的小模块开始运行单元测试了。 目前而言,每一个测试用例都应该失败。 事实上,任何测试用例在此时通过,你都应该回头看看 romantest.py ,仔细想想为什么你写的测试代码如此没用,以至于连什么都不作的函数都能通过测试。

运行 romantest1.py 带有 -v 选项的命令行可以得到更详细的输出信息,这样你就可以看到每一个测试用例的具体运行情况。如果幸运,你的结果应该是这样的:

例 14.2. Output of romantest1.py against roman1.py

toRoman should give known result with known input ... FAIL
fromRoman(toRoman(n))==n for all n ... FAIL

1 运行脚本将会执行 unittest.main(),由它来执行每个测试用例,也就是每个在 romantest.py 中定义的方法。 对于每个测试用例,无论测试通过与否,都会输出这个方法的 doc string。 意料之中,没有通过一个测试用例。
2 对于每个失败的测试用例, unittest 显示的跟踪信息告诉我们都发生了什么。 就此处而言,调用 assertRaises (也称作 failUnlessRaises) 引发了一个 AssertionError 异常, 因为期待 toRoman 所引发的 OutOfRangeError 异常没有出现。
3 在这些细节后面, unittest 给出了一个关于被执行测试的个数和花费时间的总结。
4 总而言之,由于至少 一个测试用例没有通过,单元测试失败了。一个测试用例没能通过时, unittest 会区分是失败(failures)还是错误(errors)。 失败是指调用 assertXYZ 方法, 比如: assertEqual 或者 assertRaises 时,断言的情况没有发生或预期的异常没有被引发。 而错误是指你测试的代码或单元测试本身发生了某种异常。例如:testFromRomanCase 方法 (“fromRoman 只接受大写输入”)就是一个错误,因为调用 numeral.upper() 引发了一个 AttributeError 异常,因为 toRoman 的返回值不是期望的字符串类型。但是, testZero (“toRoman 应该在输入 0 时失败”)是一个失败,因为调用 fromRoman 没有引发一个 assertRaises 期待的异常: InvalidRomanNumeral
