MiniTest::Assertions

MiniTest Assertions. All assertion methods accept a msg which is printed if the assertion fails.

Public Instance Methods

Fails unless test is a true value.

# File lib/minitest/unit.rb, line 74
def assert test, msg = nil
  msg ||= "Failed assertion, no message given."
  self._assertions += 1
  unless test then
    msg = msg.call if Proc === msg
    raise MiniTest::Assertion, msg
  end
  true
end
