Hello
Im still trying to adapt to the dynamically typed nature of elixir and I have a doubt about testing a function that has a guard
I have
def new(id) where is_integer(id)
so how do I write a test for it?
I can test it when id is a integer pretty easy,
but I would like to write a test when id is not an integer
Im asking because I can call new("hello") in the code and mix compile doesn’t cry at all
so Im guessing this will blowup in runtime.
when I pass a string in test I get
** (FunctionClauseError) no function clause matching in Dealer.new/1
and test fails (expected) and shows a stacktrace
What is the common practice here?
since Im still struggling with “when to use guards” any tips are appreciated as well
thanks

If You want to get warnings when your code use wrong type, You would need a tool like dialyxir
NobbZ
Usually you do not test calling with a string when the contract is “ints only”.
Though if you really want to, you can use
assert_raise/2,3.dimitarvp
Well, assert_raise exists.
