1. NST Criteria Based Testing
2. Coverage Groups Fixtures Tests Run-time
3. Credit •John Maraist •Robert P. Goldman •SIFT.info WHO BUILT NST
4. Why use NST?
5. <JUnit /> For this guy...
7. Groups GROUP ATTACH SETUP Tests Fixtures State (def-test-group ...)
8. :cache :each-* Extra stuff :include-groups Example (def-test-group basic-group (basic-fixture) (:documentation “Awesome”) (def-test (sanity) :true t))
9. Fixtures GROUPED BIDINGS (def-fixtures ...)
10. (def-fixtures basic-fixture (:documentation “A fixture”) (a t) (b ‘asdf)) Example
11. Tests GROUP NAME FIXTURES (def-test ...) SETUP STARTUP CLEANUP FINISH
12. (def-test (sanity :group basic-group :documentation “check me out”) (:seq (:eql t) (:not (:eql t)) ‘(t nil)) Options Name Criteria Form
13. Criteria Expectations MAP
14. :true :seq :values :each :all :progn :apply :eql :equalp :symbol
15. :eval :process def-eval-test
16. assertions null eql equalp criterion (assert-*) (assert-not-*)
17. :sample :slots :permute did I mention NST is extensible ?
18. (def-*) arbitrary-instance-type criterion-alias criterion Ways to extend NST unary-predicate-assert binary-predicate-assert
19. Runtime Command NST (nst-cmd ...)
20. :run :help :apply :report :detail :undef :set commands :clear
