#11 Parameterized tests
Allow parameterized tests in the spirit of Zohhak. For lack of MATLAB annotations, we could employ specific functions with name matching instead. For example, testwith_my_specific_test provides the parameter sets to be applied on test_my_specific_test:
function params = testwith_minmaxmedian
pstruct = @(h, d, r) struct('fhandle', h, 'data', d, 'result', r);
common_data = [1 6 2 1 3];
params(1) = pstruct(@min, common_data, 1);
params(2) = pstruct(@max, common_data, 6);
params(3) = pstruct(@median, common_data, 2);
params(4) = pstruct(@min, [], []);
function test_minmaxmedian(params)
assert_equals(params.fhandle(params.data), params.result);
In case of failure, test_my_specific's current parameterization must be put out, along assert_equal's error message as usual.
Alternatively, and for one-line test cases, provide the test function as function handle. Then you only need to make sure, no function with name test_minmaxmedian actually exists.
function [params, testfun] = testwith_minmaxmedian
pstruct = @(h, d, r) struct('fhandle', h, 'data', d, 'result', r);
common_data = [1 6 2 1 3];
params(1) = pstruct(@min, common_data, 1);
params(2) = pstruct(@max, common_data, 6);
params(3) = pstruct(@median, common_data, 2);
params(4) = pstruct(@min, [], []);
testfun = @(p) assert_equals(p.fhandle(p.data), p.result);
