🔍 Code Extractor

A unittest.TestCase class that provides comprehensive test coverage for the ValidationResult class, testing initialization, issue addition, string representation, and dictionary conversion.

Purpose

This test class validates the functionality of the ValidationResult class by testing its ability to track validation state, manage error and warning issues, maintain field-specific issue mappings, and provide different output formats. It ensures that ValidationResult correctly distinguishes between errors (which invalidate results) and warnings (which don't), and that all data structures are properly maintained.

    """Test cases for the ValidationResult class."""
    
    def test_init(self):

Parameters

Parameter Details

bases: Inherits from unittest.TestCase, which provides the testing framework infrastructure including assertion methods and test execution capabilities

Return Value

As a test class, it doesn't return values directly. When instantiated and run by a test runner, each test method returns None but uses assertions to validate behavior. Test failures raise AssertionError exceptions.

Class Interface

Methods

Dependencies

• unittest
• datetime
• logging
• validators.base_validator
• validators.uk_validator
• validators.be_validator
• validators.au_validator

Required Imports

import unittest
from datetime import datetime
import logging
from validators.base_validator import BaseValidator
from validators.base_validator import ValidationResult
from validators.uk_validator import UKValidator
from validators.be_validator import BEValidator
from validators.au_validator import AUValidator

Usage Example

import unittest
from validators.base_validator import ValidationResult

# Run a specific test
test_suite = unittest.TestLoader().loadTestsFromTestCase(TestValidationResult)
test_runner = unittest.TextTestRunner(verbosity=2)
test_runner.run(test_suite)

# Or run individual test
test = TestValidationResult()
test.test_init()
test.test_add_issue_error()
test.test_add_issue_warning()
test.test_str_representation()
test.test_as_dict()

# Or use pytest
# pytest test_file.py::TestValidationResult

# Or use unittest discovery
# python -m unittest test_file.TestValidationResult

Best Practices

• This is a test class and should be run using a test runner (unittest, pytest, etc.), not instantiated directly in production code
• Each test method is independent and tests a specific aspect of ValidationResult functionality
• Tests follow the Arrange-Act-Assert pattern: create ValidationResult, perform operations, verify outcomes
• Test methods should be run in isolation; they don't depend on each other's state
• The class tests both positive cases (valid operations) and edge cases (error vs warning behavior)
• When adding new ValidationResult features, corresponding test methods should be added to this class
• Test method names follow the convention test_<feature_being_tested> for clarity
