How can I create parameterized tests in Rust?

Question

I want to write test cases that depend on parameters. My test case should be executed for each parameter and I want to see whether it succeeds or fails for each parameter.

Probably not quite what you've asked for, but by using TestResult::discard with quickcheck you can test a function with a subset of a randomly generated input.

extern crate quickcheck;

use quickcheck::{TestResult, quickcheck};

fn fib(n: u32) -> u32 {
    match n {
        0 => 0,
        1 => 1,
        _ => fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2),
    }
}

fn main() {
    fn prop(n: u32) -> TestResult {
        if n > 6 {
            TestResult::discard()
        } else {
            let x = fib(n);
            let y = fib(n + 1);
            let z = fib(n + 2);
            let ow_is_ow = n != 0 || x == 0;
            let one_is_one = n != 1 || x == 1;
            TestResult::from_bool(x + y == z && ow_is_ow && one_is_one)
        }
    }
    quickcheck(prop as fn(u32) -> TestResult);
}

I took the Fibonacci test from this Quickcheck tutorial.

P.S. And of course, even without macros and quickcheck you still can include the parameters in the test. "Keep it simple".

#[test]
fn test_fib() {
    for &(x, y) in [(0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 1), (3, 2), (4, 3), (5, 5), (6, 8)].iter() {
        assert_eq!(fib(x), y);
    }
}
