About

For stateful values that re-initialize on each run.

Fixture Types:

ScopedFixtures provides 3 different kinds of fixtures:

• LazyFixture
• EagerFixture
• ScopedFixture

LazyFixture

This value gets instantiated on the first access for each test.

Example:

val lazyValue = LazyFixture {
  new MutableThing
}

EagerFixture

Like LazyFixture, but is instantiated for each test whether it's accessed or not.

ScopedFixture

Helpful for providing values that have needs setup and tear-down:

val actorSystemFixture = ScopedFixture[ActorSystem] { provide =>
  val actorSystem = ActorSystem("test")
  val status = provide(actorSystem)
  actorSystem.shutdown
  status
}

Dereferencing

The value assigned to val is a container; in order to get the actual value, you must call apply(). IE:

val actorSystemFixture = ScopedFixture[ActorSystem] { provide =>
  val actorSystem = ActorSystem("test")
  val status = provide(actorSystem)
  actorSystem.shutdown
  status
}
implicit def actorSystem = actorSystemFixture()
