defmodule Credo.Test.Case do
  @moduledoc """
  Conveniences for testing Credo custom checks and plugins.

  This module can be used in your test cases, like this:

      use Credo.Test.Case

  Using this module will:

  * import all the functions from this module
  * make the test case `:async` by default (use `use Credo.Test.Case, async: false` to opt out)

  ## Testing custom checks

  Suppose we have a custom check in our project that checks whether or not
  the "FooBar rules" are applied (one of those *very* project-specific things).

      defmodule MyProject.MyCustomChecks.FooBar do
        use Credo.Check, category: :warning, base_priority: :high

        def run(%SourceFile{} = source_file, params) do
          # ... implement all the "FooBar rules" ...
        end
      end

  When we want to test this check, we can use `Credo.Test.Case` for convenience:

      defmodule MyProject.MyCustomChecks.FooBarTest do
        use Credo.Test.Case

        alias MyProject.MyCustomChecks.FooBar

        test "it should NOT report expected code" do
          \"\"\"
          defmodule CredoSampleModule do
            # ... some good Elixir code ...
          end
          \"\"\"
          |> to_source_file()
          |> run_check(FooBar)
          |> refute_issues()
        end

        test "it should report code that violates the FooBar rule" do
          \"\"\"
          defmodule CredoSampleModule do
            # ... some Elixir code that violates the FooBar rule ...
          end
          \"\"\"
          |> to_source_file()
          |> run_check(FooBar)
          |> assert_issues()
        end
      end

  This is as simple and mundane as it looks (which is a good thing):
  We have two tests: one for the good case, one for the bad case.
  In each, we create a source file representation from a heredoc, run our custom check and assert/refute the issues
  we expect.

  ## Asserting found issues

  Once we get to know domain a little better, we can add more tests, typically testing for other bad cases in which
  our check should produce issues.

  Note that there are two assertion functions for this: `assert_issue/2` and `assert_issues/2`, where the first one
  ensures that there is a single issue and the second asserts that there are at least two issues.

  Both functions take an optional `callback` as their second parameter, which is called with the `issue` or the
  list of `issues` found, which makes it convenient  to check for the issues properties ...

      \"\"\"
      # ... any Elixir code ...
      \"\"\"
      |> to_source_file()
      |> run_check(FooBar)
      |> assert_issue(fn issue -> assert issue.trigger == "foo" end)

  ... or properties of the list of issues:

      \"\"\"
      # ... any Elixir code ...
      \"\"\"
      |> to_source_file()
      |> run_check(FooBar)
      |> assert_issue(fn issues -> assert Enum.count(issues) == 3 end)

  ## Testing checks that analyse multiple source files

  For checks that analyse multiple source files, like Credo's consistency checks, we can use `to_source_files/1` to
  create

      [
        \"\"\"
        # source file 1
        \"\"\",
        \"\"\"
        # source file 2
        \"\"\"
      ]
      |> to_source_files()
      |> run_check(FooBar)
      |> refute_issues()

  If our check needs named source files, we can always use `to_source_file/2` to create individually named source
  files and combine them into a list:

      source_file1 =
        \"\"\"
        # source file 1
        \"\"\"
        |> to_source_file("foo.ex")

      source_file2 =
        \"\"\"
        # source file 2
        \"\"\"
        |> to_source_file("bar.ex")

      [source_file1, source_file2]
      |> run_check(FooBar)
      |> assert_issue(fn issue -> assert issue.filename == "foo.ex" end)
