Create a timeout error with the given details.

pub fn pattern_not_found( pattern: impl Into<String>, buffer: impl Into<String>, ) -> Self

Create a pattern not found error.

pub fn process_exited( exit_status: ExitStatus, buffer: impl Into<String>, ) -> Self

Create a process exited error.

pub fn eof(buffer: impl Into<String>) -> Self

Create an EOF error.

pub fn invalid_pattern(message: impl Into<String>) -> Self

Create an invalid pattern error.

pub const fn buffer_overflow(max_size: usize) -> Self

Create a buffer overflow error.

pub fn encoding(message: impl Into<String>) -> Self

Create an encoding error.

pub fn config(message: impl Into<String>) -> Self

Create a configuration error.

pub fn io_context(context: impl Into<String>, source: Error) -> Self

Create an I/O error with context.

pub fn with_io_context<T>( result: Result<T>, context: impl Into<String>, ) -> Result<T>

Wrap an I/O result with context.

pub const fn is_timeout(&self) -> bool

Check if this is a timeout error.

pub const fn is_eof(&self) -> bool

Check if this is an EOF error.

pub fn buffer(&self) -> Option<&str>

Get the buffer contents if this error contains them.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for ExpectError

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for ExpectError

fn fmt(&self, __formatter: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Error for ExpectError

fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)>

Returns the lower-level source of this error, if any.

fn description(&self) -> &str

👎Deprecated since 1.42.0: use the Display impl or to_string()

fn cause(&self) -> Option<&dyn Error>

👎Deprecated since 1.33.0: replaced by Error::source, which can support downcasting

fn provide<'a>(&'a self, request: &mut Request<'a>)

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (error_generic_member_access)

Provides type-based access to context intended for error reports.

impl From<Error> for ExpectError

fn from(source: Error) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<Error> for ExpectError

fn from(source: Error) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<SpawnError> for ExpectError

fn from(source: SpawnError) -> Self
