Jukebox - A Clojure BDD Testing Library

This is a simple library that hooks clojure into BDD frameworks such as cucumber.

Here's an example feature.

Feature: Belly

  Scenario: a few cukes
    Given I have 42 cukes in my belly
    When I wait 2 hours
    Then my belly should growl

Clojure functions can be mapped to each step by tagging it with :scene/step:

(defn i-have-cukes-in-my-belly
  "Returns an updated `board`."
  {:scene/step "I have {int} cukes in my belly"}
  [board cukes]
  ;; Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
  (throw (cucumber.api.PendingException.)))

(defn i-wait-hours
  "Returns an updated `board`."
  {:scene/step "I wait {int} hours"}
  [board hours]
  ;; Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
  (throw (cucumber.api.PendingException.)))

(defn my-belly-should-growl
  "Returns an updated `board`."
  {:scene/step "my belly should growl"}
  [board]
  ;; Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
  (throw (cucumber.api.PendingException.)))

Functions with multiple arities can also be tagged. (Clojure allows metadata to be placed after the function body. This example uses that style.)

(defn i-wait-hours
  "Returns an updated `board`."
  ([board]
   ;; Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
   (throw (cucumber.api.PendingException.)))
  ([board hours]
   ;; Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
   (throw (cucumber.api.PendingException.)))

  {:scene/steps ["It felt like forever"
                 "I wait {int} hours"]})

Functions can be registered to run before or after a scenario by tagging them with :scene/before or :scene/after (or both). A list of tags can also be provided.

(defn ^:scene/before setup
  "Initializes systems under test."
  {:scene/tags ["tag-a" "tag-b"]}
  [board scenario])

(defn ^:scene/after teardown
  "Tears down the test system."
  [board scenario])

A function can be registered to be run before or after each step by tagging it with :scene/before-step or :scene/after-step:

(defn ^:scene/before-step before-step
  "Runs before each scenario step."
  [board])

(defn ^:scene/after-step after-step
  "Runs after each scenario step."
  [board])
