Introduction

This crate is a provides users with a simple macro that allows to define a cleanup function which can be applied to all tests in a module. This can be useful if you require to remove temporary files or directories at the end of each test, or if you need to reset some global state.

Examples

Simply provide the cleanup function you wish to call for each of your test a the end of the execution. The below shows an example to reset the state of a global variable used across the tests.

use after_test::cleanup;

#[cfg(test)]
#[cleanup(reset_global_state)]
mod tests {
    use std::sync::{Arc, LazyLock, Mutex};

    static ZERO: LazyLock<Arc<Mutex<u32>>> = LazyLock::new(|| Arc::new(Mutex::new(0)));


    fn reset_global_state() {
        // Reset the global state
        *ZERO.lock().unwrap() = 0;
    }

    #[test]
    fn test_increment() {
        let mut zero = ZERO.lock().unwrap();
        *zero += 1;
        assert_eq!(*zero, 1);
    }

    #[test]
    fn test_increment_double() {
        let mut zero = ZERO.lock().unwrap();
        *zero += 2;
        assert_eq!(*zero, 2);
    }
}

The reset_global_state function will be called at the end of each function marked with the `#[test] attribute in the module.

Roadmap

• Add support for async functions
• Add support for parametrized cleanup functions
• Add support for closures
