Kotlin Compile Testing

GitHub Maintenance Generic badge Build Status Build status

A library for in-process compilation of Kotlin and Java code, in the spirit of Google Compile Testing. For example, you can use this library to test your annotation processors.

Use Cases

  • Compile Kotlin and Java code in tests
  • Test your annotation processors
  • Test your compiler plugins
  • Test Kotlin code generation

Example

Create sources

class TestEnvClass {}

@Test
fun `test my annotation processor`() {
    val kotlinSource = SourceFile.new("KClass.kt", """
        class KClass {
            fun foo() {
                // Classes from the test environment are visible to the compiled sources
                val testEnvClass = TestEnvClass() 
            }
        }
    """)   
      
    val javaSource = SourceFile.new("JClass.java", """
        public class JClass {
            public void bar() {
                // compiled Kotlin classes are visible to Java sources
                KClass kClass = new KClass(); 
            }
    """)

Configure compilation

    val result = KotlinCompilation().apply {
        sources = listOf(kotlinSource, javaSource)
        
        // pass your own instance of an annotation processor
        annotationProcessors = listOf(MyAnnotationProcessor()) 
        
        inheritClassPath = true
        messageOutputStream = System.out // see diagnostics in real time
    }.compile()

Assert results

    assertThat(result.exitCode).isEqualTo(ExitCode.OK)	
    
    // Test diagnostic output of compiler
    assertThat(result.messages).contains("My annotation processor was called") 
    
    // Load compiled classes and inspect generated code through reflection
    val kClazz = result.classLoader.loadClass("KClass")
    assertThat(kClazz).hasDeclaredMethods("foo")
}

Features

  • Mixed-source sets: Compile Kotlin and Java source files in a single run
  • Annotation processing:
    • Run annotation processors on Kotlin and Java sources
    • Generate Kotlin and Java sources
    • Both Kotlin and Java sources have access to the generated sources
    • Provide your own instances of annotation processors directly to the compiler instead of letting the compiler create them with a service locator
    • Debug annotation processors: Since the compilation runs in the same process as your application, you can easily debug it instead of having to attach your IDE's debugger manually to the compilation process
  • Inherit classpath: Compiled sources have access to classes in your application
  • Project Jigsaw compatible: Kotlin-Compile-Testing works with JDK 8 as well as JDK 9 and later
  • JDK-crosscompilation: Provide your own JDK to compile the code against, instead of using the host application's JDK. This allows you to easily test your code on all JDK versions
  • Find dependencies automatically on the host classpath

Installation

Add jitpack to the repositories in your root build.gradle file:

allprojects {
	repositories {
		// ...
		maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' } // add this
	}
}

Add dependency to your module build.gradle file:

dependencies {
        // ...
	implementation 'com.github.tschuchortdev:kotlin-compile-testing:1.2.0'
}
