+ \qmlclass TestCase TestCase
+ \brief The TestCase item represents a unit test case.
+ \since 4.8
+ \ingroup qtest::qml
+
+ \section1 Introduction to QML test cases
+
+ Test cases are written as JavaScript functions within a TestCase
+ element:
+
+ \code
+ import QtQuick 1.0
+ import QtQuickTest 1.0
+
+ TestCase {
+ name: "MathTests"
+
+ function test_math() {
+ compare(2 + 2, 4, "2 + 2 = 4")
+ }
+
+ function test_fail() {
+ compare(2 + 2, 5, "2 + 2 = 5")
+ }
+ }
+ \endcode
+
+ Functions whose names start with "test_" are treated as test cases
+ to be executed. The \l name property is used to prefix the functions
+ in the output:
+
+ \code
+ ********* Start testing of MathTests *********
+ Config: Using QTest library 4.7.2, Qt 4.7.2
+ PASS : MathTests::initTestCase()
+ FAIL! : MathTests::test_fail() 2 + 2 = 5
+ Actual (): 4
+ Expected (): 5
+ Loc: [/home/.../tst_math.qml(12)]
+ PASS : MathTests::test_math()
+ PASS : MathTests::cleanupTestCase()
+ Totals: 3 passed, 1 failed, 0 skipped
+ ********* Finished testing of MathTests *********
+ \endcode
+
+ Because of the way JavaScript properties work, the order in which the
+ test functions are found is unpredictable. To assist with predictability,
+ the test framework will sort the functions on ascending order of name.
+ This can help when there are two tests that must be run in order.
+
+ Multiple TestCase elements can be supplied. The test program will exit
+ once they have all completed. If a test case doesn't need to run
+ (because a precondition has failed), then \l optional can be set to true.
+
+ \section1 Data-driven tests
+
+ Table data can be provided to a test using a function name that ends
+ with "_data":
+
+ \code
+ import QtQuick 1.0
+ import QtQuickTest 1.0
+
+ TestCase {
+ name: "DataTests"
+
+ function test_table_data() {
+ return [
+ {tag: "2 + 2 = 4", a: 2, b: 2, answer: 4 },
+ {tag: "2 + 6 = 8", a: 2, b: 6, answer: 8 },
+ ]
+ }
+
+ function test_table(data) {
+ compare(data.a + data.b, data.answer)
+ }
+ }
+ \endcode
+
+ The test framework will iterate over all of the rows in the table
+ and pass each row to the test function. As shown, the columns can be
+ extracted for use in the test. The \c tag column is special - it is
+ printed by the test framework when a row fails, to help the reader
+ identify which case failed amongst a set of otherwise passing tests.
+
+ \section1 Benchmarks
+
+ Functions whose names start with "benchmark_" will be run multiple
+ times with the Qt benchmark framework, with an average timing value
+ reported for the runs. This is equivalent to using the \c{QBENCHMARK}
+ macro in the C++ version of QTestLib.
+
+ \code
+ TestCase {
+ id: top
+ name: "CreateBenchmark"
+
+ function benchmark_create_component() {
+ var component = Qt.createComponent("item.qml")
+ var obj = component.createObject(top)
+ obj.destroy()
+ component.destroy()
+ }
+ }
+
+ RESULT : CreateBenchmark::benchmark_create_component:
+ 0.23 msecs per iteration (total: 60, iterations: 256)
+ PASS : CreateBenchmark::benchmark_create_component()
+ \endcode
+
+ To get the effect of the \c{QBENCHMARK_ONCE} macro, prefix the test
+ function name with "benchmark_once_".
+
+ \section1 Simulating keyboard and mouse events
+
+ The keyPress(), keyRelease(), and keyClick() methods can be used
+ to simulate keyboard events within unit tests. The events are
+ delivered to the currently focused QML item.
+
+ \code
+ Rectangle {
+ width: 50; height: 50
+ focus: true
+
+ TestCase {
+ name: "KeyClick"
+ when: windowShown
+
+ function test_key_click() {
+ keyClick(Qt.Key_Left)
+ ...
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ \endcode
+
+ The mousePress(), mouseRelease(), mouseClick(), mouseDoubleClick(),
+ and mouseMove() methods can be used to simulate mouse events in a
+ similar fashion.
+
+ \bold{Note:} keyboard and mouse events can only be delivered once the
+ main window has been shown. Attempts to deliver events before then
+ will fail. Use the \l when and windowShown properties to track
+ when the main window has been shown.

+ after the window is shown.
