VsTestClassBase.Assume Method
Supports initialization requirements in the generated test class.
Namespace: Microsoft.SpecExplorer.Runtime.Testing
Assembly: Microsoft.SpecExplorer.Runtime.VisualStudio (in Microsoft.SpecExplorer.Runtime.VisualStudio.dll)
Usage
'Usage
Syntax
'Declaration
public override void Assume (
bool condition,
string description
)
Parameters
- condition
The condition to assume true.
- description
The message to include in any exception that is thrown when condition is false.
Remarks
The generated test code does not call this method. However, the Assume method of the test manager calls the Assume method of the test class. The test manager for the test is initialized in the InitializeTestManager method.
This method throws an AssertInconclusiveException to indicate that condition is false.
If the TestMethodReturnType switch is set to none or "void", the TestPassedReturnValue, TestFailedReturnValue, and TestFailedExceptionType switches are ignored, and exceptions are not caught by the test case; that is, any exceptions generated by the test case are thrown to and handled by the test harness.
If the TestMethodReturnType, TestPassedReturnValue, and TestFailedReturnValue switches are set to something other than their default values, each test case is wrapped in a try-catch block. If, in addition, the TestFailedExceptionType switch is set to a value other than none, each test case is wrapped in a try-catch block that catches only the specified exception type. Such exceptions specifically indicate that the test case encountered a conformance error, and the test manager raises such exceptions only if the test manager's ThrowTestFailureException property is set to true.
If you extend the VsTestClassBase class, you can call the DefaultTestManager.Assume method from your implementation of the InitializeTestManager method to check any initialization requirements that the test class might have.
