I would like to make a fixture to do automatic assertions at the end of a test using it. However, such assertions are reported as ERROR instead of FAIL as it occurs during the teardown. Is there a solution ?

I am using the hypothesis python package for stateful testing.
I am getting the following error when I run my tests:
hypothesis.errors.Flaky: Unreliable assumption: An example which satisfied assumptions on the first run now fails it.
I understand what flaky error means from a similar post. I have a test which failed the first time but passed during the second time. I can understand from the log, which test has led to this failure. Hypothesis tries the same test sequence 4 times during the overall test run among which, 2 of them pass and 2 of them fail.
I have tried the failing test individually without hypothesis and it does not fail. I am trying to understand what leads to the flaky error. Is it possibly a bug in Hypothesis as given in the post below:
What does Flaky: Hypothesis test produces unreliable results mean?
How do I get around this? Please find the log file of the test run at the link:
https://github.com/aparnasbose/hypothesis/blob/master/flaky%20test
The problem is almost certainly that your test is not deterministic for all inputs; there are some arguments or sequences of actions that Hypothesis can find which sometimes pass and sometimes fail. Hypothesis considers this a bug in your test, and raises the Flaky error.
To diagnose this in more detail I'd need to see your actual source code.
FYI verbose verbosity is much more useful here than debug (which dumps too much internal state). You may also want upgrade to Hypothesis >= 4.41.1 for improved statistics.
can i do an action in XCUITest after test failure, after assert or even if element not found or not hittable
app will stay like this for hours if fails or entered an assertion .
like this assert or fail
can i let the test call a method if fails?
If you execute a single test, it will stop in case of failure.
However, if you execute multiple tests together, it will not stop but instead log the failure, so that the other tests are still executed (see the Report navigator in the leftmost pane of Xcode).
And you can of course execute any method before you call a method that declares a test as failed. just call it before, say, XCTFail("error message").
EDIT:
In function setup(), you should also set continueAfterFailure = true
I use SOAP UI for testing a REST API. I have a few test cases which are independent of each other and can be executed in random order.
I know that one can disable aborting the whole run by disabling the option Fail on error as shown in this answer on SO. However, it can be so that the TestCase1 has prepared certain data to run tests first and it breaks in the middle of its run because an assertion fails or for some other reason. Now, the TestCase2 starts running after it and will test some other things, however, because TestCase1 has not had its all steps (including those that clean up) executed, it may fail.
I would like to be able to run all of the tests even if a certain test fails however I want to be able to execute a number of particular test case specific steps should a test fail. In programming terms, I would like to have a finally where each test case will have a number of steps that will be executed regardless of whether the test failed or passed.
Is there any way to achieve this?
You can use Teardown script at test case level
In below example test step fails but still teardown script runs. So its more like Finally
Alternatively you can try creating your own soft assertion which will not stop the test case even if it fails. for example
def err[]
then whenever there is an error you can do
err.add( "Values did not matched")
at the end you can check
assert err.size()>0 ,"There is an error"
log.info err
This way you can capture errors and do actual assertions at the end or alternatively you can use the below teardown script provided by SoapUI
I'm using serenity core and JBehave. I would like to stop the test and set test outcome as PASS based on some condition if the condition fails test continues.
How could I stop the JBehave test during suite execution and set PASS? And then the suite continues with another test.
To the best of my knowledge, JBehave is designed to optionally stop a test upon failure only. By default it will fail an entire scenario and continue with any other scenarios in the story as applicable.
In situations like this, I believe your only solution is through the steps methods themselves. Check your "pass" condition in the steps method and then continue the code only if that condition fails. It's possible your story's scenario definition is not concise enough? Keep it to a simple Given, When, Then instead of breaking the steps up in too detailed a manner.
What is the point of the REQUIRE_NOTHROW assertion? If I just put a statement and don't wrap it in any assertion macro it will fail if it throws anyway?
It's the difference between the TEST_CASE failing and an individual assertion failing. The REQUIRE macros ensure that the next lines aren't executed if they fail. Conversely, the CHECK macros can mark the test case as a failure but continue.
Consider this example:
REQUIRE_NOTHROW(parseInput(validInput));
REQUIRE_THROWS(parseInput(errorInput));
REQUIRE_THROWS(parseInput(NULL));
So we're explicitly requesting that passing valid input does not cause an exception, but bad input does. If we didn't use the REQUIRE_NOTHROW() macro, then the test would fail but then we'd need to decipher where it failed - an exception could have come from other lines of test code.
