lunit - Unit Testing Framework for Lua.

  • Provides 27 assert functions, and a few misc functions for usage in an easy unit testing framework.
  • Comes with a test suite to test itself. The testsuite consists of approximately 710 assertions.
  • Licensed under the MIT license.

Actual state

This package is not maintained anymore. It is here for pure historically reasons for your interest.

Example

Source: example.lua:

require "lunit"

module( "my_testcase", lunit.testcase )

function test_success()
  assert_false( false, "This test never fails.")
end

function test_failure()
  fail( "This test always fails!" )
end

lunit.main(...)

Run tests:

# lua example.lua 
    F.

2 Assertions checked.

  1) Failure (my_testcase.test_failure):
example.lua:10: failure
example.lua:10: This test always fails!

Testsuite finished (1 passed, 1 failed, 0 errors).
