单元测试的重要性是不言而喻的,对于ABNF的例子来说,通过单元测试除了可以发现程序的BUG之外,还可以发现预测解析器能够支持哪些情况下的文法,以及那些情况下解析器无能为力(所谓FEATURE,嘿嘿)。
我在这个项目中使用JUnit来做单元测试,先来看一段最简单的测试代码:

为图方便我把被测代码和测试代码都放到一起了,testSP()函数用来测试SP()函数的功能是否满足。SP()是用来解析空格输入的函数,即当输入流的下一个字符是空格时,返回这个空格,否则抛出一个匹配异常MatchException。
单元测试的关键要素(输入参数)是测试用例(比如字符串输入流)和期望结果,在每一个测试用例中,都要调用一次被测函数,然后检查输出结果是否与预期结果一直。这里面有一部分代码是要重复使用的,为了偷懒(以免要大段大段的复制粘贴代码),抽象出Tester测试器接口和Assertion断言类。
Tester测试器接口的代码如下:
public interface Tester<E> { public abstract E test(AbnfParser parser) throws MatchException, IOException, CollisionException; }
Tester接口只有一个test函数。例如在测试testSP函数中,定义了一个Tester的匿名类,在这个类的test函数中调用被测函数。有了Tester接口,我们在不同的测试用例下只需要指定一个Tester的实例就行,而不需要每次都调用被测函数。
再来看看Assertion断言类,这也是一个提供方便的类,这个类提供了若干个方法,支持不同情况下调用Tester实例,并将测试结果与期望结果相比较,如果不一致则抛出异常。

这里再补充说明一下AbnfParserFactory工厂类,这个类主要是为了方便将字符串转换为输入流并创建AbnfParser实例而写的,代码很简单:

If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. */ import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream; public class AbnfParserFactory { public static AbnfParser newInstance(String prefix, String input) { return new AbnfParser(prefix, new ByteArrayInputStream(input.getBytes())); } public static AbnfParser newInstance(String input) { return new AbnfParser("", new ByteArrayInputStream(input.getBytes())); } public static AbnfParser newInstance(String prefix, char[] input) { return new AbnfParser(prefix, new ByteArrayInputStream(String.valueOf(input).getBytes())); } public static AbnfParser newInstance(char[] input) { return new AbnfParser("", new ByteArrayInputStream(String.valueOf(input).getBytes())); } }
有了这个工厂类,单元测试的时候就方便多了,因为我们的测试用例可能是字符串、字符数组,这个工厂类能够帮助我们快速创建AbnfParser实例。
通过单元测试可以发现很多我们意想不到的情况,例如:
// elements = alternation *c-wsp @Test public void testElements() throws Exception { Tester<Elements> tester = new Tester<Elements>() { @Override public Elements test(AbnfParser parser) throws MatchException, IOException { return parser.elements(); } }; String input; input = "A/B/C"; Assertion.assertMatch(input, tester, AbnfParserFactory.newInstance(input).elements(), 6, 1); // TODO input = "A/B/C "; Assertion.assertMatchException(input, tester, 8, 1); }
原来这个预测解析器无法处理对于输入的Alternation为“A/B/C ”即后面多一个空格的情形,具体的原因我们在后面的帖子里再慢慢分析吧。
