Metaprogramming Elixir - Assertion (page 41-42)
The test
function in the Assertion
module only tests the last assert
.
This is because only the last command output is returned and received by Assertion.Test.run
For example:
defmodule MathTest do
use Assertion
test "integers can be added and subtracted" do
assert 2 + 1 == 5
assert 5 + 5 == 10
end
end
MathTest.run()
Output:
.
Even though assert 2 +1 == 5
fails, it doesn’t get returned so its never caught.
One solution is to have assert
macro raise error to be caught by Application.Test.run
.

@ediw8311xht thanks for your feedback. Normally the author would reply, but in this case, the author isn’t available to address questions or errata and we don’t anticipate updating the book. I wonder if the issue is due to changes in Elixir since the book was published (2015).
