(still pronounced mocha)

###Features

• before, after, beforeEach, afterEach per group
• formatted logging from inside tests
• equal,notequal,equalfloat,equalint helper

todo

• other output formats (json etc).

note
Usually -debug flag is required for Stack traces.

###How does it look?

import structural.Stack;

class StackTest extends Mohxa {

    public function new() {

        super();

        describe('Stack Test', function(){

            log('we will create 2 different stacks');
            log('one with ints, one with strings');

            var int_stack : Stack<Int>;
            var string_stack : Stack<String>;

            before(function(){

                log('creating ... ');

                int_stack = new Stack<Int>();
                string_stack = new Stack<String>();

            });

            it('should each start with a 0 length', function(){
                equal(int_stack.length, 0, 'int stack');
                equal(string_stack.length, 0, 'string stack');
            });

            ...

        }); //Stack Test

    } //new

} //StackTest

How does the output look?

mohxa.Run

Often times it is convenient to split test instances into groups. A Run is a group of test instances, which runs the group, and collates the total, failed and time properties from the run.

class Simple extends mohxa.Mohxa {

    public function new() {
        super();

        describe('simple', function() {
            it('exists', function() {
                equal(true, true);
            });
        });

    } //new

} //Simple

static function main() {

    var run = new mohxa.Run([ new Simple() ]);

    trace('completed ${run.total} tests, ${run.failed} failures (${run.time}ms)');

} //main

You can also pass false to the constructor and call run manually.
