Method Details

assertThatJDKAssertionAreEnabled

@BeforeAll
protected static final void assertThatJDKAssertionAreEnabled()

As the name of the method indicates, it asserts that the JDK assertions are enabled.

The method uses TestUtils.isAssertionOn() to check whether JDK assertion is currently activated, meaning that the program was started with the command line flags -ea or -enableassertions.

Unfortunately, it is possible to activate assertions for some selected packages only (and org.tquadrat.test may not be amongst these), or org.tquadrat.test is explicitly disabled with -da or -disableassertions (or – most mean! – assertions are only activated for org.tquadrat.test}. Therefore, the outcome of this method will not guarantee for one hundred percent that assertion are always thrown where necessary.

See Also:

• TestUtils.isAssertionOn()

assertThatSystemPropertiesWereNotChanged

@AfterEach
protected final void assertThatSystemPropertiesWereNotChanged()

As the name of the method indicates, it asserts that the system properties were not modified.

assertThatThereAreNoMoreLiveThreadsThanBeforeSetup

@AfterEach
protected final void assertThatThereAreNoMoreLiveThreadsThanBeforeSetup()

As the name of the method indicates, it asserts that there are no more living threads than there had been before setup.

getDefaultErrorStream

protected final PrintStream getDefaultErrorStream()

Returns the default error stream.

Returns:

The default error stream.

getDefaultOutputStream

protected final PrintStream getDefaultOutputStream()

Returns the default output stream.

Returns:

The default output stream.

hasNetwork

protected final boolean hasNetwork()

Checks whether the machine, that runs the current test, has network configured.

Returns:

true if the current machine has a network configured, false otherwise.

obtainLiveThreads

@BeforeEach
protected final void obtainLiveThreads()

References to all currently running threads will be stored.

See Also:

• m_LiveThreadsBeforeSetup
• assertThatThereAreNoMoreLiveThreadsThanBeforeSetup()

resetDefaultSettings

@BeforeEach
protected final void resetDefaultSettings()

Resets the default settings for Locale, TimeZone, and ZoneId.

See Also:

• Locale.setDefault(Locale)
• TimeZone.setDefault(TimeZone)
• ZoneId.systemDefault()

resetDefaultStreams

@AfterEach
protected final void resetDefaultStreams()

Resets the default streams.

resetSkipThreadTest

@BeforeEach
protected final void resetSkipThreadTest()

Resets the thread test flag.

saveDefaultSettings

@BeforeEach
protected final void saveDefaultSettings()

Saves the default settings for Locale, TimeZone, and ZoneId.

See Also:

• Locale.getDefault()
• TimeZone.getDefault()
• ZoneId.systemDefault()

saveDefaultStreams

@BeforeEach
protected final void saveDefaultStreams()

Saves the default streams.

skipThreadTest

public final void skipThreadTest()

Sets the thread test flag to true, disabling that test.

storeSystemProperties

@BeforeAll
protected static void storeSystemProperties()

Keep the system properties.

translateEscapes

protected final String translateEscapes(CharSequence input)

Translates the escape sequences in a String. Refer to String.translateEscapes() for the details.

Use this method to convert the input from CSV files or alike.

Parameters:

input - The input String; can be null.

Returns:

The processed String; will be null if the input was already null.

Since:

0.1.0

validateAsStaticClass

protected final boolean validateAsStaticClass(Class<?> candidate)

Validates whether a class is really a static class.

A class is static when it has the following characteristics:

• The class is final.
• All methods are static.
• Only the default constructor may exist, this has to be private, and it has to throw an Error on invocation.

If a test fails, the result is written to System.out.

The method will not check for the @UtilityClass annotation as this has only the retention level SOURCE.

Parameters:

candidate - The class to inspect.

Returns:

true if the class is in fact static, false otherwise.
