Type Members

1.  trait Live[+R] extends AnyRef

   The Live trait provides access to the "live" environment from within the mock environment for effects such as printing test results to the console or timing out tests where it is necessary to access the real environment.

   The Live trait provides access to the "live" environment from within the mock environment for effects such as printing test results to the console or timing out tests where it is necessary to access the real environment.

   The easiest way to access the "live" environment is to use the live method with an effect that would otherwise access the mock environment.

   import zio.clock
   import zio.test.mock._
   
   val realTime = live(clock.nanoTime)

   The withLive method can be used to apply a transformation to an effect with the live environment while ensuring that the effect itself still runs with the mock environment, for example to time out a test. Both of these methods are re-exported in the mock package for easy availability.

2.  trait MockClock extends Clock with Scheduler

   MockClock makes it easy to deterministically and efficiently test effects involving the passage of time.

   MockClock makes it easy to deterministically and efficiently test effects involving the passage of time.

   Instead of waiting for actual time to pass, sleep and methods implemented in terms of it schedule effects to take place at a given clock time. Users can adjust the clock time using the adjust and setTime methods, and all effects scheduled to take place on or before that time will automically be run.

   For example, here is how we can test ZIO.timeout using MockClock:

   import zio.ZIO
   import zio.duration._
   import zio.test.mock.MockClock
   
   for {
     fiber  <- ZIO.sleep(5.minutes).timeout(1.minute).fork
     _      <- MockClock.adjust(1.minute)
     result <- fiber.join
   } yield result == None

   Note how we forked the fiber that sleep was invoked on. Calls to sleep and methods derived from it will semantically block until the time is set to on or after the time they are scheduled to run. If we didn't fork the fiber on which we called sleep we would never get to set the the time on the line below. Thus, a useful pattern when using MockClock is to fork the effect being tested, then adjust the clock to the desired time, and finally verify that the expected effects have been performed.

   Sleep and related combinators schedule events to occur at a specified duration in the future relative to the current fiber time (e.g. 10 seconds from the current fiber time). The fiber time is backed by a FiberRef and is incremented for the duration each fiber is sleeping. Child fibers inherit the fiber time of their parent so methods that rely on repeated sleep calls work as you would expect.

   For example, here is how we can test an effect that recurs with a fixed delay:

   import zio.Queue
   import zio.duration._
   import zio.test.mock.MockClock
   
   for {
     q <- Queue.unbounded[Unit]
     _ <- (q.offer(()).delay(60.minutes)).forever.fork
     a <- q.poll.map(_.isEmpty)
     _ <- MockClock.adjust(60.minutes)
     b <- q.take.as(true)
     c <- q.poll.map(_.isEmpty)
     _ <- MockClock.adjust(60.minutes)
     d <- q.take.as(true)
     e <- q.poll.map(_.isEmpty)
   } yield a && b && c && d && e

   Here we verify that no effect is performed before the recurrence period, that an effect is performed after the recurrence period, and that the effect is performed exactly once. The key thing to note here is that after each recurrence the next recurrence is scheduled to occur at the appropriate time in the future, so when we adjust the clock by 60 minutes exactly one value is placed in the queue, and when we adjust the clock by another 60 minutes exactly one more value is placed in the queue.

3.  trait MockConsole extends Console

   MockConsole provides a testable interface for programs interacting with the console by modeling input and output as reading from and writing to intput and output buffers maintained by MockConsole and backed by a Ref.

   MockConsole provides a testable interface for programs interacting with the console by modeling input and output as reading from and writing to intput and output buffers maintained by MockConsole and backed by a Ref.

   All calls to putStr and putStrLn using the MockConsole will write the string to the output buffer and all calls to getStrLn will take a string from the input buffer. No actual printing or reading from the console will occur. MockConsole has several methods to access and manipulate the content of these buffers including feedLines to feed strings to the input buffer that will then be returned by calls to getStrLn, output to get the content of the output buffer from calls to putStr and putStrLn, and clearInput and clearOutput to clear the respective buffers.

   Together, these functions make it easy to test programs interacting with the console.

   import zio.console._
   import zio.test.mock._
   import zio.ZIO
   
   val sayHello = for {
     name <- getStrLn
     _    <- putStrLn("Hello, " + name + "!")
   } yield ()
   
   for {
     _ <- MockConsole.feedLines("John", "Jane", "Sally")
     _ <- ZIO.collectAll(List.fill(3)(sayHello))
     result <- MockConsole.output
   } yield result == Vector("Hello, John!\n", "Hello, Jane!\n", "Hello, Sally!\n")

4.  case class MockEnvironment(blocking: Service[Any], clock: Mock, console: Mock, live: Service[Clock with Console with System with Random with Blocking], random: Mock, scheduler: Mock, sized: Service[Any], system: Mock) extends Blocking with Live[Clock with Console with System with Random with Blocking] with MockClock with MockConsole with MockRandom with MockSystem with Scheduler with Sized with Product with Serializable
5.  trait MockRandom extends Random

   MockRandom allows for deterministically testing effects involving randomness.

   MockRandom allows for deterministically testing effects involving randomness.

   MockRandom operates in two modes. In the first mode, MockRandom is a purely functional pseudo-random number generator. It will generate pseudo-random values just like scala.util.Random except that no internal state is mutated. Instead, methods like nextInt describe state transitions from one random state to another that are automatically composed together through methods like flatMap. The random seed can be set using setSeed and MockRandom is guaranteed to return the same sequence of values for any given seed. This is useful for deterministically generating a sequence of pseudo-random values and powers the property based testing functionality in ZIO Test.

   In the second mode, MockRandom maintains an internal buffer of values that can be "fed" with methods such as feedInts and then when random values of that type are generated they will first be taken from the buffer. This is useful for verifying that functions produce the expected output for a given sequence of "random" inputs.

   import zio.random._
   import zio.test.mock.MockRandom
   
   for {
     _ <- MockRandom.feedInts(4, 5, 2)
     x <- random.nextInt(6)
     y <- random.nextInt(6)
     z <- random.nextInt(6)
   } yield x + y + z == 11

   MockRandom will automatically take values from the buffer if a value of the appropriate type is available and otherwise generate a pseudo-random value, so there is nothing you need to do to switch between the two modes. Just generate random values as you normally would to get pseudo-random values, or feed in values of your own to get those values back. You can also use methods like clearInts to clear the buffer of values of a given type so you can fill the buffer with new values or go back to pseuedo-random number generation.

6.  trait MockSystem extends System

   MockSystem supports deterministic testing of effects involving system properties.

   MockSystem supports deterministic testing of effects involving system properties. Internally, MockSystem maintains mappings of environment variables and system properties that can be set and accessed. No actual environment variables or system properties will be accessed or set as a result of these actions.

   import zio.system
   import zio.test.mock._
   
   for {
     _      <- MockSystem.putProperty("java.vm.name", "VM")
     result <- system.property("java.vm.name")
   } yield result == Some("VM")
