SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Rust testing patterns that guide reliable, maintainable Rust code through unit tests, integration tests, async testing, property-based testing, mocking, and comprehensive coverage using TDD.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Unit tests: structure and validate small units in Rust with #[test] and cfg(test).
  • Integration tests: organize and run tests across crate boundaries in tests/ with real-world scenarios.
  • Property-based testing: leverage proptest and quickcheck-style strategies to validate inputs.
  • Mocking & fakes: use mockall to isolate components and test interactions.
  • Documentation-driven testing: include doc tests to demonstrate API usage.
  • TDD workflow: apply RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle to drive design.

Quick Start

Run cargo test to execute unit, integration, and property-based tests for your Rust project.

Frequently Asked Questions about rust-testing

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure unit tests and integration tests in a Rust project?▼

Rust testing organizes unit tests within src/ files using #[test] and cfg(test), while integration tests reside in a separate tests/ directory to validate functionality across crate boundaries.

What's the best way to isolate components in Rust tests using mocking?▼

Mocking in Rust tests isolates components by using mockall to generate mock structs, allowing you to test interactions and verify behavior without relying on external dependencies or real implementations.

How does property-based testing work in Rust?▼

Property-based testing in Rust uses crates like proptest or quickcheck to automatically generate diverse input strategies, validating that code properties hold true across a wide range of generated test cases.

Can I apply a TDD workflow with RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycles in Rust?▼

The TDD workflow in Rust applies the RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle to drive software design, ensuring robust quality by writing failing tests first, implementing code to pass them, then refactoring.

Does Rust support documentation-driven testing for API usage examples?▼

Documentation-driven testing in Rust uses doc tests to execute code examples found in documentation comments, ensuring that API usage demonstrations remain valid and functional during cargo test runs.
