SHTK_UNITTEST_SET_EXPECT_FAILURE(3)         DragonFly Library Functions Manual

NAME

shtk_unittest_set_expect_failure - Makes the test expect a failure

LIBRARY

shtk_import unittest

SYNOPSIS

shtk_unittest_set_expect_failure

DESCRIPTION

The shtk_unittest_set_expect_failure function changes the behavior of the test so that a failure indicates success and a pass indicates a failure. Changing the expectation of the test to a failure is useful for test cases that exercise a known bug: while the bug is live, the test case will pass with a message describing the error encountered; however, when the bug is fixed, the test will start failing indicating that it needs to be revised. shtk_unittest_set_expect_failure can only be called once during the execution of a test case and its effects cannot be reversed.
