2021-04-07Documentation: kunit: add tips for using current->kunit_testDaniel Latypov1-2/+76
As of commit 359a376081d4 ("kunit: support failure from dynamic analysis tools"), we can use current->kunit_test to find the current kunit test. Mention this in tips.rst and give an example of how this can be used in conjunction with `test->priv` to pass around state and specifically implement something like mocking. There's a lot more we could go into on that topic, but given that example is already longer than every other "tip" on this page, we just point to the API docs and leave filling in the blanks as an exercise to the reader. Also give an example of kunit_fail_current_test().

2021-02-08Documentation: kunit: add tips.rst for small examplesDaniel Latypov3-1/+120
./usage.rst contains fairly long examples and explanations of things like how to fake a class and how to use parameterized tests (and how you could do table-driven tests yourself). It's not exactly necessary information, so we add a new page with more digestible tips like "use kunit_kzalloc() instead of kzalloc() so you don't have to worry about calling kfree() yourself" and the like. Change start.rst to point users to this new page first and let them know that usage.rst is more of optional further reading.

2021-01-15Documentation: kunit: include example of a parameterized testDaniel Latypov1-0/+57
Commit fadb08e7c750 ("kunit: Support for Parameterized Testing") introduced support but lacks documentation for how to use it. This patch builds on commit 1f0e943df68a ("Documentation: kunit: provide guidance for testing many inputs") to show a minimal example of the new feature.

2020-12-01Documentation: kunit: provide guidance for testing many inputsDaniel Latypov1-6/+77
usage.rst goes into a detailed section about faking out classes, but currently lacks wording about how one might idiomatically test a range of inputs. Add a new chapter for "Common Patterns" and group "Isolating behvaior" and this new section under there. Give an example of how one might test a hash function via macros/helper funcs and a table-driven test and very briefly discuss pros and cons. Also highlight the KUNIT_EXPECT_*_MSG() variants (that aren't mentioned elsewhere [1]) which are particularly useful in these situations. It is also criminally underused at the moment, only appearing in 2 tests (both written by people involved in KUnit).

2020-07-17Documentation: kunit: Remove references to --defconfigDavid Gow2-13/+6
The --defconfig option in kunit_tool was removed in [1], but the getting started and kunit_tool documentation still encouraged its use. Update those documents to reflect that it's no-longer required, and is the default behaviour if no .kunitconfig is found. Also update a couple of places where .kunitconfig is still referred to as kunitconfig (this was changed in [2]).
