All Implemented Interfaces:

junit.framework.Test

public class FileCompareTestCase

extends TestCase

This class is a jutils.framework.Test that compares two files. The user needs to make a derived class that overrides the (null) implementation of action, in order to do the relevant checking of the result of the compare.

Field Summary
(package private)  java.lang.String	command           Holds the command String supplied in the constructor.
(package private)  java.lang.String	file1           Holds the file name supplied in the constructor.
(package private)  java.lang.String	file2           Holds the second file name supplied in the constructor.

Constructor Summary

FileCompareTestCase(java.lang.String name, java.lang.String file1, java.lang.String file2, java.lang.String command)           Constructs the appropriate Test.

 

Method Summary
void	action(int result, java.lang.String outputText, java.lang.String errorText)           The user should override this to carry out an action (e.g.
void	runTest()           The runTest method required by a Test - calling this executes the test.

Field Detail

command

java.lang.String command

Holds the command String supplied in the constructor.

file1

java.lang.String file1

Holds the file name supplied in the constructor.

file2

java.lang.String file2

Holds the second file name supplied in the constructor.

FileCompareTestCase

public FileCompareTestCase(java.lang.String name,
                           java.lang.String file1,
                           java.lang.String file2,
                           java.lang.String command)

Constructs the appropriate Test.

Parameters:

name - The name of the test

file1 - The first of the files to be compared

file2 - The second of the files to be compared

command - The external command to be run to compare them, e.g. "diff"

runTest

public void runTest()
             throws java.io.IOException

The runTest method required by a Test - calling this executes the test. The actual effect is carried out in the 'action' method, which the user is expected to override.

Overrides:

runTest in class junit.framework.TestCase

Throws:

java.io.IOException

action

public void action(int result,
                   java.lang.String outputText,
                   java.lang.String errorText)

The user should override this to carry out an action (e.g. 'assertTrue(result==0)'). The method is called by the runTest method after the files have been compared.

Parameters:

result - The exit value produced by the external command supplied to the constructor. For example, a 'diff' command yields 0 for a match, 1 for a non-match, and 2 for an execution error.

outputText - The text produced by the output stream of the external process

errorText - The text produced by the error stream of the external process
