# Pretty Assertions
|
|
|
|
When writing tests in Rust, you'll probably use `assert_eq!(a, b)` _a lot_.
|
|
|
|
If such a test fails, it will present all the details of `a` and `b`.
|
|
But you have to spot the differences yourself, which is not always straightforward,
|
|
like here:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Wouldn't that task be _much_ easier with a colorful diff?
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Yep — and you only need **one line of code** to make it happen:
|
|
|
|
```rust,ignore
|
|
use pretty_assertions::{assert_eq, assert_ne};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
<summary>Show the example behind the screenshots above.</summary>
|
|
|
|
```rust,ignore
|
|
// 1. add the `pretty_assertions` dependency to `Cargo.toml`.
|
|
// 2. insert this line at the top of each module, as needed
|
|
use pretty_assertions::{assert_eq, assert_ne};
|
|
|
|
fn main() {
|
|
#[derive(Debug, PartialEq)]
|
|
struct Foo {
|
|
lorem: &'static str,
|
|
ipsum: u32,
|
|
dolor: Result<String, String>,
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
let x = Some(Foo { lorem: "Hello World!", ipsum: 42, dolor: Ok("hey".to_string())});
|
|
let y = Some(Foo { lorem: "Hello Wrold!", ipsum: 42, dolor: Ok("hey ho!".to_string())});
|
|
|
|
assert_eq!(x, y);
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
## Tip
|
|
|
|
Specify it as [`[dev-dependencies]`](http://doc.crates.io/specifying-dependencies.html#development-dependencies)
|
|
and it will only be used for compiling tests, examples, and benchmarks.
|
|
This way the compile time of `cargo build` won't be affected!
|
|
|
|
Also add `#[cfg(test)]` to your `use` statements, like this:
|
|
|
|
```rust,ignore
|
|
#[cfg(test)]
|
|
use pretty_assertions::{assert_eq, assert_ne};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Note
|
|
|
|
* Since `Rust 2018` edition, you need to declare
|
|
`use pretty_assertions::{assert_eq, assert_ne};` per module.
|
|
Before you would write `#[macro_use] extern crate pretty_assertions;`.
|
|
* The replacement is only effective in your own crate, not in other libraries
|
|
you include.
|
|
* `assert_ne` is also switched to multi-line presentation, but does _not_ show
|
|
a diff.
|
|
* Under Windows, the terminal state is modified to properly handle VT100
|
|
escape sequences, which may break display for certain use cases.
