Monix Testing

Library aimed to provide support to integrate Monix Task with different testing frameworks.

Releases

Available for Scala 2.12 and 2.13 and 3.

Credits

This project is ported from typelevel/cats-effect-testing, with the difference that this library provides support for Task instead of IO. So credits to their authors and maintainers🙏

Mainly with the purpose of supporting task-testing on monix series 3.x, since once monix is compatible with cats effect 3.0 this project will most likely not be longer useful, since then we will be able to use cats-effect-testing 1.x which is implemented with Tagless Final, thus compatible with either IO and Task.

Scalatest

Add the following dependency to your build.sbt:

"io.monix" %% "monix-testing-scalatest" % "0.3.0"

It provides a set of implicit conversions to convert [[Task]] to [[Future]], so the user does not need to do it for every test.

 import monix.eval.Task
 import monix.execution.Scheduler
 import monix.testing.scalatest.MonixTaskTest
 import org.scalatest.funsuite.AsyncFunSuite
 import org.scalatest.matchers.should.Matchers

 class DummySpec extends AsyncFunSuite with MonixTaskTest with Matchers {

     override implicit def scheduler: Scheduler = Scheduler.io("monix-task-support-spec")

     test("AsyncTestSuite with Task support") {
         for {
             r1 <- Task(2)
             r2 <- Task(r1 * 3)
         } yield {
             r1 shouldBe 2
             r2 shouldBe 6
         }
     // no need for tranforming the [[Task]] to [[Future]] or to awaiting for its result.
     }

     test("AsyncTestSuite with Task and AssertingSyntax support") {
         Task(2).flatMap(r1 => Task(r1 * 3)).asserting(_ shouldBe 6)
     }
 }

µTest

Add the following dependency to your build.sbt:

"io.monix" %% "monix-testing-utest" % "0.3.0"

It provides a wrapper conversions from [[Task]] to [[Future]].

 import monix.eval.Task
 import monix.execution.Scheduler
 import monix.testing.utest.MonixTaskTest
 import utest.{Tests, test}

 import scala.concurrent.duration._

class DummySuite extends MonixTaskTest {

 override implicit val scheduler: Scheduler = Scheduler.io("monix-task-test")

 override val timeout = 1.second

 val tests = Tests {
    test("dummy test") {
       Task(assert(true))
    }
 }
}

Minitest

Minitest is very similar to uTest, but being strongly typed:

Add the following dependency to your build.sbt:

"io.monix" %% "monix-testing-utest" % "0.3.0"
  import monix.eval.Task
  import monix.execution.Scheduler
  import monix.testing.minitest.MonixTaskTest

  import scala.concurrent.duration._

object DummySuite extends MonixTaskTest {
  override val timeout = 1.second // Default timeout is 10 seconds

   override protected implicit val scheduler: Scheduler = Scheduler.global

   test("dummy test") {
    Task(assert(true))
  }
}

Specs2

Finally, specs2 can directly be used from "com.codecommit" %% "cats-effect-testing-specs2" % "0.5.4", the latest release that is compatible with monix 3.x.

 import monix.eval.Task
 import monix.execution.Scheduler
 import cats.effect.testing.specs2.CatsEffect
 import org.specs2.mutable.Specification

 import scala.concurrent.duration._

implicit val scheduler: Scheduler = Scheduler.global

class DummySpec extends Specification with CatsEffect {
 "dummy test" should {
    "be successful" in Task {
       true must beTrue
    }
 }
}
