Type Members

1.  type Action[A] = Eff[ActionStack, A]
2.  case class ActionException (warnings: List[String], message: Option[String], throwable: Option[Throwable]) extends Exception with Product with Serializable

   This exception class is used when an Action is transformed to a Task to avoid losing information

3.  type ActionStack = EffectsCons[control.eff.ErrorEffect.ErrorOrOk, control.eff.all.|:[Console, control.eff.all.|:[Warnings, control.eff.all.|:[control.eff.all.Eval, NoEffect]]]]

   Action type, using a logger as a reader and no writer

4.  trait Debug extends ImplicitParameters

   This trait provides simple a way to print out any object to the console:

   This trait provides simple a way to print out any object to the console:

   "this string".pp must_== "this string"

   will print 'this string' and pass it to the rest of the expectation

5.  trait Exceptions extends AnyRef

   This trait provides methods to catch exceptions and transform them into values which can be passed to further computations.

   This trait provides methods to catch exceptions and transform them into values which can be passed to further computations.

   It uses the facilities found in the scala.util.control.Exception object while providing a more concise api on some use cases.

   See also

   org.specs2.control.ExceptionsSpec for examples

6.  trait ExecutionOrigin extends Stacktraces

   This trait is used primarily to change the junit behavior depending on the execution environment

7.  trait Functions extends AnyRef

   This trait provides utility methods for functions

8.  trait HasStackTrace extends AnyRef

   This trait describes something which has a stackTrace with:

   This trait describes something which has a stackTrace with:

   • a list of stacktrace element

   This is used to provide a common interface to execute.Failure and execute.Error

9.  trait ImplicitParameters extends AnyRef

   This trait is used to abuse method overloading and allow some of the methods in specs2 DSL to be applicable to various parameters.

   This trait is used to abuse method overloading and allow some of the methods in specs2 DSL to be applicable to various parameters.

   For example in a mutable specification, the >> method is overloaded for lots of different arguments:

   • result
   • function of the Environment
   • function of the Command line
   • ...
10.  case class IncludeExcludeStackTraceFilter (include: Seq[String], exclude: Seq[String]) extends StackTraceFilter with Product with Serializable

    Implementation of the StackTraceFilter trait with a list of include/exclude patterns

11.  trait LanguageFeatures extends AnyRef

    implicits and postfix ops are automatically mixed in specs2 specifications for convenience.

    implicits and postfix ops are automatically mixed in specs2 specifications for convenience. If you *really* don't want that you can override this behaviour by using the NoLanguageFeatures trait

12.  class LazyParameter [+T] extends AnyRef

    class holding a value to be evaluated lazily

13.  trait LazyParameters extends AnyRef

    This trait can be used to allow some function to be called with varargs, with values being evaluated lazily:

    This trait can be used to allow some function to be called with varargs, with values being evaluated lazily:

    def method[T](values: LazyParameter[T]*) = {
      values.toStream // use the toStream method to consume the values lazily
    }
    // usage
    method(exp1, exp2, exp3)

    Note that the values are really evaluated once, unlike a by-name parameter.

14.  case class LazyValue [T](t: () ⇒ T) extends Product with Serializable

    This class simply encapsulates a lazy value which will be only evaluated once

    This class simply encapsulates a lazy value which will be only evaluated once

    See also

    org.specs2.specification.process.RandomSequentialExecution for an example of use

15.  type Logger = (String) ⇒ Unit

    Actions logging

16.  case class NamedThreadFactory (namePrefix: String, group: ThreadGroup = Thread.currentThread.getThreadGroup, priority: Int = Thread.currentThread.getPriority) extends ThreadFactory with Product with Serializable

    This factory creates named threads which can be prefixed by "specs2" to track the threads used by specs2 for the specification execution

17.  trait NoDebug extends Debug

    Use this trait to disable the pp method on objects

18.  trait NoLanguageFeatures extends LanguageFeatures
19.  trait NoNumberOfTimes extends NumberOfTimes
20.  trait NumberOfTimes extends AnyRef

    Syntactic sugar to execute an action a given number of times

21.  trait Properties extends AnyRef
22.  case class Property [T](value: () ⇒ Option[T], evaluated: Boolean = false, evaluatedValue: Option[T] = None) extends Product with Serializable

    This class represents values which are evaluated lazily and which may even be missing.

    This class represents values which are evaluated lazily and which may even be missing.

    It has Option-like function and can be also converted to an Either object

23.  trait SomeTimeout extends AnyRef
24.  trait StackTraceFilter extends AnyRef

    This trait filters an Exception stacktrace

25.  trait Stacktraces extends AnyRef

    Utility methods to determine the origin of the execution of the current code

26.  trait Throwablex extends AnyRef

    This trait adds some utility methods to Throwable objects.

27.  case class Times (n: Int) extends Product with Serializable
28.  case class TraceLocation (path: String, fileName: String, className: String, methodName: String, lineNumber: Int) extends Product with Serializable
29.  case class UserException (message: String, throwable: Throwable) extends Exception with Product with Serializable

    This exception class is used to notify the user of instantiation errors

30.  implicit class actionOps [T] extends AnyRef
31.  implicit class actionToTask [T] extends AnyRef

    An Action[T] can be converted to a Task[T]

32.  implicit class ioActionToOption [T] extends AnyRef

    execute an action with no logging and return an option

33.  implicit class taskToAction [T] extends AnyRef

    A Task[T] (the result of running a Process[Task, T] for example) can be converted to an Action[T]
