Printing custom messages

In case you want to include custom data in the test report - either as temporary debug messages or custom report data -, vest allows you to emit messages from your tests.

define()methods

extends VestTest

func get_suite_name() -> String:
  return "Print test"

func suite():
  test("Custom message", func():
    var date := Time.get_date_dict_from_system()
    var date_string := "%d-%02d-%02d" % [date["year"], date["month"], date["day"]]
    Vest.message("Tests ran on %s" % [date_string])
    ok()
  )

extends VestTest

func get_suite_name() -> String:
  return "Print test"

func test_custom_message():
  var date := Time.get_date_dict_from_system()
  var date_string := "%d-%02d-%02d" % [date["year"], date["month"], date["day"]]
  Vest.message("Tests ran on %s" % [date_string])
  ok()

Call Vest.message(), and its parameter will be stored as a test message. These messages are then included in the test reports.

Each message is associated with the currently running ( or, if not available, about to be ran ) test case.
