Allows testing of monadic values. Will generally follow this form:
prop_monadic a b =monadicIO
$ do a' <-run
(f a) b' <-run
(f b) -- ...assert
someBoolean
Example using the FACTOR(1)
command-line utility:
import System.Process import Test.QuickCheck import Test.QuickCheck.Monadic -- $ factor 16 -- 16: 2 2 2 2 factor :: Integer -> IO [Integer] factor n = parse `fmap`readProcess
"factor" [show n] "" where parse :: String -> [Integer] parse = map read . tail . words prop_factor :: Positive Integer -> Property prop_factor (Positive
n) =monadicIO
$ do factors <-run
(factor n)assert
(product factors == n)
>>>
quickCheck prop_factor
+++ OK, passed 100 tests.

Property monad
The property monad is really a monad transformer that can contain
monadic computations in the monad m
it is parameterized by:
m
- them
-computations that may be performed withinPropertyM
Elements of PropertyM m a
may mix property operations and m
-computations.

Monadic specification combinators
run :: Monad m => m a -> PropertyM m a #
The lifting operation of the property monad. Allows embedding
monadic/IO
-actions in properties:
log :: Int -> IO () prop_foo n = monadicIO $ do run (log n) -- ...
assert :: Monad m => Bool -> PropertyM m () #
Allows embedding non-monadic properties into monadic ones.
pre :: Monad m => Bool -> PropertyM m () #
Tests preconditions. Unlike assert
this does not cause the
property to fail, rather it discards them just like using the
implication combinator ==>
.
This allows representing the Hoare triple
{p} x ← e{q}
as
pre p x <- run e assert q
pick :: (Monad m, Show a) => Gen a -> PropertyM m a #
Quantification in a monadic property, fits better with
do-notation than forAllM
.
monitor :: Monad m => (Property -> Property) -> PropertyM m () #
Allows making observations about the test data:
monitor (collect
e)
collects the distribution of value of e
.
monitor (counterexample
"Failure!")
Adds "Failure!"
to the counterexamples.
Run functions
monadicIO :: PropertyM IO a -> Property #
Runs the property monad for IO
-computations.
prop_cat msg = monadicIO $ do (exitCode, stdout, _) <- run (readProcessWithExitCode
"cat" [] msg) pre (ExitSuccess
== exitCode) assert (stdout == msg)
>>>
quickCheck prop_cat
+++ OK, passed 100 tests.
monadicST :: (forall s. PropertyM (ST s) a) -> Property #
Runs the property monad for ST
-computations.
