This is the PHP port of Hamcrest Matchers

Build Status

Hamcrest is a matching library originally written for Java, but subsequently ported to many other languages. hamcrest-php is the official PHP port of Hamcrest and essentially follows a literal translation of the original Java API for Hamcrest, with a few Exceptions, mostly down to PHP language barriers:

  1. instanceOf($theClass) is actually anInstanceOf($theClass)

  2. both(containsString('a'))->and(containsString('b')) is actually both(containsString('a'))->andAlso(containsString('b'))

  3. either(containsString('a'))->or(containsString('b')) is actually either(containsString('a'))->orElse(containsString('b'))

  4. Unless it would be non-semantic for a matcher to do so, hamcrest-php allows dynamic typing for it's input, in "the PHP way". Exception are where semantics surrounding the type itself would suggest otherwise, such as stringContains() and greaterThan().

  5. Several official matchers have not been ported because they don't make sense or don't apply in PHP:

    • typeCompatibleWith($theClass)
    • eventFrom($source)
    • hasProperty($name) **
    • samePropertyValuesAs($obj) **
  6. When most of the collections matchers are finally ported, PHP-specific aliases will probably be created due to a difference in naming conventions between Java's Arrays, Collections, Sets and Maps compared with PHP's Arrays.


** [Unless we consider POPO's (Plain Old PHP Objects) akin to JavaBeans] - The POPO thing is a joke. Java devs coin the term POJO's (Plain Old Java Objects).

Usage

Hamcrest matchers are easy to use as:

Hamcrest_MatcherAssert::assertThat('a', Hamcrest_Matchers::equalToIgnoringCase('A'));

Alternatively, you can use the global proxy-functions:

$result = true;
// with an identifier
assertThat("result should be true", $result, equalTo(true));

// without an identifier
assertThat($result, equalTo(true));

// evaluate a boolean expression
assertThat($result === true);

// with syntactic sugar is()
assertThat(true, is(true));

⚠️ NOTE: the global proxy-functions aren't autoloaded by default, so you will need to load them first:

\Hamcrest\Util::registerGlobalFunctions();

For brevity, all of the examples below use the proxy-functions.

Documentation

A tutorial can be found on the Hamcrest site.

Available Matchers

Array

  • anArray - evaluates an array
assertThat([], anArray());
  • hasItemInArray - check if item exists in array
$list = range(2, 7, 2);
$item = 4;
assertThat($list, hasItemInArray($item));
  • hasValue - alias of hasItemInArray

  • arrayContainingInAnyOrder - check if array contains elements in any order

assertThat([2, 4, 6], arrayContainingInAnyOrder([6, 4, 2]));
assertThat([2, 4, 6], arrayContainingInAnyOrder([4, 2, 6]));
  • containsInAnyOrder - alias of arrayContainingInAnyOrder

  • arrayContaining - An array with elements that match the given matchers in the same order.

assertThat([2, 4, 6], arrayContaining([2, 4, 6]));
assertthat([2, 4, 6], not(arrayContaining([6, 4, 2])));
  • contains - check array in same order
assertThat([2, 4, 6], contains([2, 4, 6]));
  • hasKeyInArray - check if array has given key
assertThat(['name'=> 'foobar'], hasKeyInArray('name'));
  • hasKey - alias of hasKeyInArray

  • hasKeyValuePair - check if arary has given key, value pair

assertThat(['name'=> 'foobar'], hasKeyValuePair('name', 'foobar'));
  • hasEntry - same as hasKeyValuePair

  • arrayWithSize - check array has given size

assertthat([2, 4, 6], arrayWithSize(3));
  • emptyArray - check if array is emtpy
assertThat([], emptyArray());
  • nonEmptyArray
assertThat([1], nonEmptyArray());

Collection

  • emptyTraversable - check if traversable is empty
$empty_it = new EmptyIterator;
assertThat($empty_it, emptyTraversable());
  • nonEmptyTraversable - check if traversable isn't empty
$non_empty_it = new ArrayIterator(range(1, 10));
assertThat($non_empty_it, nonEmptyTraversable());
a
  • traversableWithSize
$non_empty_it = new ArrayIterator(range(1, 10));
assertThat($non_empty_it, traversableWithSize(count(range(1, 10))));
`

Core

  • allOf - Evaluates to true only if ALL of the passed in matchers evaluate to true.
assertThat([2,4,6], allOf(hasValue(2), arrayWithSize(3)));
  • anyOf - Evaluates to true if ANY of the passed in matchers evaluate to true.
assertThat([2, 4, 6], anyOf(hasValue(8), hasValue(2)));
  • noneOf - Evaluates to false if ANY of the passed in matchers evaluate to true.
assertThat([2, 4, 6], noneOf(hasValue(1), hasValue(3)));
  • both + andAlso - This is useful for fluently combining matchers that must both pass.
assertThat([2, 4, 6], both(hasValue(2))->andAlso(hasValue(4)));
  • either + orElse - This is useful for fluently combining matchers where either may pass,
assertThat([2, 4, 6], either(hasValue(2))->orElse(hasValue(4)));
  • describedAs - Wraps an existing matcher and overrides the description when it fails.
$expected = "Dog";
$found = null;
// this assertion would result error message as Expected: is not null but: was null
//assertThat("Expected {$expected}, got {$found}", $found, is(notNullValue()));
// and this assertion would result error message as Expected: Dog but: was null
//assertThat($found, describedAs($expected, notNullValue()));
  • everyItem - A matcher to apply to every element in an array.
assertThat([2, 4, 6], everyItem(notNullValue()));
  • hasItem - check array has given item, it can take a matcher argument
assertThat([2, 4, 6], hasItem(equalTo(2)));
  • hasItems - check array has givem items, it can take multiple matcher as arguments
assertThat([1, 3, 5], hasItems(equalTo(1), equalTo(3)));
