hey there!

let bindings should work as expected within expect and it forms

I am stuggling with the around not executing

Here is my code:

(defdescribe module-test
  (let [ipc (volatile! nil)]
    (describe "shopping list"
              {:context [(around [f]
                                 (println "before")
                                 (vreset! ipc (rtest/create-ipc))
                                 (launch! @ipc)
                                 (f)
                                 (println "after")
                                 (.close @ipc))]}
              (expect
               (let [shopping-list-depot (depot @ipc "*shopping-list-depot")
                     shopping-lists (pstate @ipc "$$shopping-lists")
                     {list-id "shopping-list"} (r/foreign-append!
                                                shopping-list-depot
                                                (sut/map->ShoppingList
                                                 {:list-id (random-uuid)
                                                  :name "Hadil's List"
                                                  :author "Hadil"}))]
                 (it "should create a shopping list"
                  (= {:list-id list-id
                      :name "Hadil's List"
                      :author "Hadil"
                      :subscribers #{}}
                     (r/foreign-select-one [(rp/keypath list-id)] shopping-lists))))))))

it forms return a thunk, an anonymous function that is called by the runner, so binding calls won't work from outside it calls

oh i see. you have them inside out. it is the test case, expect is the assertion

Oh! My bad.

heh no worries, "i expect it should work" is just normal english

That fixed it! Thank you Noah.

glad to help
