//: The goal of this skeleton is to make programs more easy to understand and //: more malleable, easy to rewrite in radical ways without accidentally //: breaking some corner case. Tests further both goals. They help //: understandability by letting one make small changes and get feedback. What //: if I wrote this line like so? What if I removed this function call, is it //: really necessary? Just try it, see if the tests pass. Want to explore //: rewriting this bit in this way? Tests put many refactorings on a firmer //: footing. //: //: But the usual way we write tests seems incomplete. Refactorings tend to //: work in the small, but don't help with changes to function boundaries. If //: you want to extract a new function you have to manually test-drive it to //: create tests for it. If you want to inline a function its tests are no //: longer valid. In both cases you end up having to reorganize code as well as //: tests, an error-prone activity. //: //: This file tries to fix this problem by supporting domain-driven testing //: We try to focus on the domain of inputs the program should work on. All //: tests invoke the program in a single way: by calling run() with different //: inputs. The program operates on the input and logs _facts_ it deduces to a //: trace: //: trace("label") << "fact 1: " << val; //: //: The tests check for facts: //: :(scenario foo) //: 34 # call run() with this input //: +label: fact 1: 34 # trace should have logged this at the end //: -label: fact 1: 35 # trace should never contain such a line //: //: Since we never call anything but the run() function directly, we never have //: to rewrite the tests when we reorganize the internals of the program. We //: just have to make sure our rewrite deduces the same facts about the domain, //: and that's something we're going to have to do anyway. //: //: To avoid the combinatorial explosion of integration tests, we organize the //: program into different layers, and each fact is logged to the trace with a //: specific label. Individual tests can focus on specific labels. In essence, //: validating the facts logged with a specific label is identical to calling //: some internal subsystem. //: //: Traces interact salubriously with layers. Thanks to our ordering //: directives, each layer can contain its own tests. They may rely on other //: layers, but when a test fails its usually due to breakage in the same //: layer. When multiple tests fail, it's usually useful to debug the very //: first test to fail. This is in contrast with the traditional approach, //: where changes can cause breakages in faraway subsystems, and picking the //: right test to debug can be an important skill to pick up. //: //: A final wrinkle is for recursive functions; it's often useful to segment //: calls of different depth in the trace: //: +eval/1: => 34 # the topmost call to eval should have logged this line //: (look at new_trace_frame below) //: //: To build robust tests, trace facts about your domain rather than details of //: how you computed them. //: //: More details: http://akkartik.name/blog/tracing-tests //: //: --- //: //: Between layers and domain-driven testing, programming starts to look like a //: fundamentally different activity. Instead of a) superficial, b) local rules //: on c) code [like http://blog.bbv.ch/2013/06/05/clean-code-cheat-sheet], //: we allow programmers to engage with the a) deep, b) global structure of the //: c) domain. If you can systematically track discontinuities in the domain //: you don't care if the code used gotos as long as it passed the tests. If //: tests become more robust to run it becomes easier to try out radically //: different implementations for the same program. If code is super-easy to //: rewrite, it becomes less important what indentation style it uses, or that //: the objects are appropriately encapsulated, or that the functions are //: referentially transparent. //: //: Instead of plumbing, programming becomes building and gradually refining a //: map of the environment the program must operate under. Whether a program is //: 'correct' at a given point in time is a red herring; what matters is //: avoiding regression by monotonically nailing down the more 'eventful' parts //: of the terrain. It helps readers new and old and rewards curiosity to //: organize large programs in self-similar hiearchies of example scenarios //: colocated with the code that makes them work. //: //: "Programming properly should be regarded as an activity by which //: programmers form a mental model, rather than as production of a program." //: -- Peter Naur (http://alistair.cockburn.us/ASD+book+extract%3A+%22Naur,+Ehn,+Musashi%22) :(before "int main") // End Tracing // hack to ensure most code in this layer comes before anything else :(before "End Tracing") bool Hide_warnings = false; :(before "End Setup") Hide_warnings = false; :(before "End Tracing") struct trace_stream { vector > > past_lines; // [(layer label, frame, line)] unordered_map frame; // accumulator for current line ostringstream* curr_stream; string curr_layer; string dump_layer; trace_stream() :curr_stream(NULL) {} ~trace_stream() { if (curr_stream) delete curr_stream; } ostringstream& stream(string layer) { newline(); curr_stream = new ostringstream; curr_layer = layer; return *curr_stream; } // be sure to call this before messing with curr_stream or curr_layer or frame void newline() { if (!curr_stream) return; past_lines.push_back(pair >(curr_layer, pair(frame[curr_layer], curr_stream->str()))); if (curr_layer == dump_layer || curr_layer == "dump" || dump_layer == "all" || (!Hide_warnings && curr_layer == "warn")) cerr << curr_layer << '/' << frame[curr_layer] << ": " << with_newline(curr_stream->str()); delete curr_stream; curr_stream = NULL; } // Useful for debugging. string readable_contents(string layer) { // missing layer = everything, frame, hierarchical layers newline(); ostringstream output; string real_layer, frame; parse_layer_and_frame(layer, &real_layer, &frame); for (vector > >::iterator p = past_lines.begin(); p != past_lines.end(); ++p) if (layer.empty() || prefix_match(real_layer, p->first)) output << p->first << "/" << p->second.first << ": " << with_newline(p->second.second); return output.str(); } // Useful for a newcomer to visualize the program at work. void dump_browseable_contents(string layer) { ofstream dump("dump"); dump << "
