| 2021-03-06 05:46:25 | <arahael> | I'm not sure how that helps... Can you put that main within a unit test? |
| 2021-03-06 05:46:43 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | where `putChar c` would be your testing function and `getChar` would be your function that you're testing |
| 2021-03-06 05:46:43 | × | Lycurgus quits (~niemand@cpe-45-46-139-165.buffalo.res.rr.com) (Client Quit) |
| 2021-03-06 05:47:14 | <arahael> | heck-to-the-gnom: I'd prefer not to write my own test harness. |
| 2021-03-06 05:47:23 | <arahael> | brb, back in 15. (Have to take the rubbish out...) |
| 2021-03-06 05:47:31 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | Heck, I'm a noob at Haskell too, but I've had a few run-ins with IO, I thought I'd try, there's no other way to find out I guess (to the question you asked) |
| 2021-03-06 05:47:48 | <arahael> | Yeah - I think I have to do it in hunit. |
| 2021-03-06 05:47:58 | × | stree quits (~stree@68.36.8.116) (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) |

| 2021-03-06 05:59:41 | <arahael> | Well, that was pretty easy. |
| 2021-03-06 06:00:22 | → | stree joins (~stree@68.36.8.116) |
| 2021-03-06 06:00:38 | <arahael> | heck-to-the-gnom: What I had missed was that in tasty, the `testCase` function has type `TestName -> Assertion -> TestTree`, and Assertion is just a `type Assertion = IO ()`. |
| 2021-03-06 06:00:43 | <arahael> | So there's the IO that I can use. |

| 2021-03-06 06:07:20 | <arahael> | Ok, so this leads to the next question I'm wondering: Is it possible (as in; easy) to get an idea of the test coverage you have with `cabal test`? |

| 2021-03-06 06:13:51 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | Isn't it funny, how the bulk (at least of us inexperienced) of haskell problems are because we can't find functions that do what we're looking for already? There really should be a better way to search for that type of stuff. Perhaps a functionality tagging system would be of help. |
| 2021-03-06 06:15:32 | <arahael> | heck-to-the-gnom: Well, the fault was mine. But hoogle and hackage both do extremely well |
| 2021-03-06 06:16:09 | <arahael> | heck-to-the-gnom: Note - in hackage, there is a very easily over-looked "source" link next to every function, this leads you to a *hyperlinked* source file. |

| 2021-03-06 06:20:23 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | I've gone there, quite a few times, not quite what I mean, but often useful, nonetheless |
| 2021-03-06 06:21:13 | <arahael> | sclv: Thanks for that, that's *perfect*. |
| 2021-03-06 06:21:28 | <arahael> | heck-to-the-gnom: Could you explain what you mean, then? |
| 2021-03-06 06:22:04 | × | nineonine quits (~nineonine@50.216.62.2) (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) |
| 2021-03-06 06:23:01 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | tagging functions, with ideas as to what they do, like assertion, it'd be nice to have an easy method to search "IO outof(IO)", then just find the one for your datatype or package |
| 2021-03-06 06:23:43 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | perhaps I'm just that bad at reading types, and that's already how it works, IDK, I'll get better, I'm certain |
| 2021-03-06 06:23:46 | <arahael> | What do you mean "IO outof(IO)"? |
| 2021-03-06 06:23:58 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | run IO, outside of an IO function |
| 2021-03-06 06:24:07 | <arahael> | Ah, well, generally, you shouldn't. You almost can't. |
| 2021-03-06 06:24:08 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | or context |
| 2021-03-06 06:24:33 | <arahael> | But in my particular case, I was trying to find something "idiomatic", and Tasty didn't show any examples using IO. |
| 2021-03-06 06:25:20 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | Yeah, well, I want random numbers, and IO is the sanest way for that, I don't always want to run everything in IO (there's other examples, but this was a difficult learning experience that I had a while back) |
| 2021-03-06 06:25:55 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | anyway, I'm off to bed, good chatting w/ you |
| 2021-03-06 06:26:20 | <arahael> | heck-to-the-gnom: Sleep well. |
