\title{Lint expectation}
\usage{
expect_lint(content, checks, ..., file = NULL, language = "en")

expect_no_lint(content, ..., file = NULL, language = "en")
}
\arguments{
\item{content}{a character vector for the file content to be linted, each vector element representing a line of
text.}

\item{checks}{checks to be performed:
\describe{
\item{NULL}{check that no lints are returned.}
\item{single string or regex object}{check that the single lint returned has a matching message.}
\item{named list}{check that the single lint returned has fields that match. Accepted fields are the same as those
taken by \code{\link[=Lint]{Lint()}}.}
\item{list of named lists}{for each of the multiple lints returned, check that it matches the checks in the
corresponding named list (as described in the point above).}
}
Named vectors are also accepted instead of named lists, but this is a compatibility feature that
is not recommended for new code.}

\item{...}{arguments passed to \code{\link[=lint]{lint()}}, e.g. the linters or cache to use.}

\item{file}{if not \code{NULL}, read content from the specified file rather than from \code{content}.}

\item{language}{temporarily override Rs \code{LANGUAGE} envvar, controlling localization of base R error messages.
This makes testing them reproducible on all systems irrespective of their native R language setting.}
}
\value{
\code{NULL}, invisibly.
}
\description{
These are expectation functions to test specified linters on sample code in the \code{testthat} testing framework.
\itemize{
\item \code{expect_lint} asserts that specified lints are generated.
\item \code{expect_no_lint} asserts that no lints are generated.
}
}
\examples{
# no expected lint
expect_no_lint("a", trailing_blank_lines_linter())

# one expected lint
expect_lint("a\n", "trailing blank", trailing_blank_lines_linter())
expect_lint("a\n", list(message = "trailing blank", line_number = 2), trailing_blank_lines_linter())

# several expected lints
expect_lint("a\n\n", list("trailing blank", "trailing blank"), trailing_blank_lines_linter())
expect_lint(
  "a\n\n",
  list(
    list(message = "trailing blank", line_number = 2),
    list(message = "trailing blank", line_number = 3)
  ),
  trailing_blank_lines_linter()
)
