Std.Test.status

1 declaration

fn

status: &Std.Test.Report -> Int

This is a callable function.

What it does

The status a program should leave with, which is zero only when every check

held.

A test runner that always leaves with zero is a test runner nothing can be

built on: the thing reading it cannot tell a pass from a failure.

This is what a program run by pudu run should answer, where zero means

nothing went wrong. A suite run by pudu test answers report instead,

where zero means nothing was checked — the two readers want opposite

things from the same number, so each has its own way to say it.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
  • & borrows a value for this call instead of moving or copying it.
