*"Frustra fit per plura quod potest fieri per pauciora."* --William of Ockham "It is futile to do with more things that which can be done with fewer." ### Summary Extremely minimal test framework. Perfect for DIY lovers. Nanotest provides the bare minimum needed; for everything else, there's ruby. ### Install gem install nanotest ### Examples require 'nanotest' include Nanotest assert { 1 == 1 } assert { 2 > 1 } assert { not 1 > 2 } assert { 1 == 2 } #line 12 outputs: ...F (examples.rb:012) assertion failed See actual use at ### API Nanotest has a single method: `#assert`. You can either include Nanotest as above, or use its method directly: `Nanotest.assert { true }`. Its block is expected to return a boolean. If it's false it fails, otherwise it passes. Simple as that. `#assert` also accepts a custom failure message: assert("foo is too small") { @foo > 5 } #line 36 #=> (examples.rb:036) foo is too small That's pretty much it. Maximum Simplicity.
