+ The <em>Suite Callback</em> (henceforth called SCB) framework allows
+ extensions of the default behaviour of Common Test by means of callbacks
+ before and after all test suite calls. SCBs allow advanced Common Test
+ users to abstract out behaviour which is common to multiple test suites
+ without littering all test suites with library calls. Some example
+ usages are: logging, starting and monitoring external systems,
+ building C files needed by the tests and much more!</p>

+ <section>
+ <title>Installing an SCB</title>
+ <p>There are multiple ways to install an SCB in your test run. You can do it
+ for all tests in a run, for specific test suites and for specific groups
+ within a test suite. If you want an SCB to be present in all test suites
+ within your testrun there are three different ways to accomplish that.</p>

+ To add multiple SCBs using this method append them to each other
+ using the keyword <c>and</c>, i.e.

+ <seealso marker="ct#run_test-1">ct:run_test/1</seealso></item>
+ </list>
+
+ <p>You can also add SCBs within a test suite. This is done by returning
+ <c>{suite_callbacks,[SCB]}</c> in the config list from
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:suite-0">suite/0</seealso>,
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_suite-1">
+ init_per_suite/1</seealso> or
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_group-2">
+ init_per_group/2</seealso>. <c>SCB</c> in this case can be either
+ only the module name of the SCB or a tuple with the module name and the
+ initial arguments to the SCB. Eg:
+ <c>{suite_callbacks,[my_scb_module]}</c> or
+ <c>{suite_callbacks,[{my_scb_module,[{debug,true}]}]}</c></p>

+ <section>
+ <title>Overriding SCBs</title>
+ <p>By default each installation of an SCB will cause a new instance of it
+ to be activated. This can cause problems if you want to be able to
+ override SCBs in testspecifications while still having them in the
+ suite info function. The
+ <seealso marker="ct_suite_callback#Module:id-1">id/1</seealso>

+ <p>CTHs are run with the same process scoping as normal test suites
+ i.e. a different process will execute the init_per_suite hooks then the
+ init_per_group or per_testcase hooks. So if you want to spawn a
+ process in the CTH you cannot link with the CTH process as it will exit
+ after the post hook ends. Also if you for some reason need an ETS
+ table with your CTH, you will have to spawn a process which handles
+ it.</p>

+ <title>Manipulating tests</title>
+ <p>It is through SCB's possible to manipulate the results of tests and
+ configuration functions. The main purpose of doing this with SCBs is to
+ allow common patterns to be abstracted out from test test suites and applied to
+ multiple test suites without duplicating any code. All of the callback
+ functions for an SCB follow a common interface, this interface is
+ described below.</p>
+
+ <marker id="pre"/>
+ <section>
+ <title>Pre test manipulation</title>

+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_suite-1">init_per_testcase</seealso>,
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_suite-1">end_per_group</seealso> and
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_suite-1">end_per_suite</seealso>.
+ This is done in the SCB functions called pre_&lt;name of function&gt;.
+ All of these function take the same three arguments: <c>Name</c>,
+ <c>Config</c> and <c>SCBState</c>. The return value of the SCB function
+ is always a combination of an result for the suite/group/test and an
+ updated <c>SCBState</c>. If you want the test suite to continue on
+ executing you should return the config list which you want the test to
+ use as the result. If you for some reason want to skip/fail the test,
+ return a tuple with <c>skip</c> or <c>fail</c> and a reason as the
+ result. Example:
+ </p>
+ <code>pre_init_per_suite(SuiteName, Config, SCBState) -&gt;
+ case db:connect() of
+ {error,_Reason} -&gt;
+ {{fail, "Could not connect to DB"}, SCBState};
+ {ok, Handle} -&gt;
+ {[{db_handle, Handle} | Config], SCBState#state{ handle = Handle }}
+ end.</code>
+
+ </section>
+
+ <marker id="post"/>
+ <section>
+ <title>Post test manipulation</title>
+ <p>It is also possible in an SCB to hook in behaviour after
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_suite-1">init_per_suite</seealso>,
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_suite-1">init_per_group</seealso>,
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_suite-1">end_per_testcase</seealso>,
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_suite-1">end_per_group</seealso> and
+ <seealso marker="common_test#Module:init_per_suite-1">end_per_suite</seealso>.
+ This is done in the SCB functions called post_&lt;name of function&gt;.
+ All of these function take the same four arguments: <c>Name</c>,
+ <c>Config</c>, <c>Return</c> and <c>SCBState</c>. <c>Config</c> in this
+ case is the same <c>Config</c> as the testcase is called with.
+ <c>Return</c> is the value returned by the testcase. If the testcase
+ failed by crashing, <c>Return</c> will be
+ <c>{'EXIT',{{Error,Reason},Stacktrace}}</c>.</p>
+
+ <p>The return value of the SCB function is always a combination of an
+ result for the suite/group/test and an updated <c>SCBState</c>. If
+ you want the callback to not affect the outcome of the test you should
+ return the <c>Return</c> data as it is given to the SCB. You can also
+ modify the result of the test. By returning the <c>Config</c> list
+ with the <c>tc_status</c> element removed you can recover from a test
+ failure. As in all the pre hooks, it is also possible to fail/skip
+ the test case in the post hook. Example: </p>
+
+ <code>post_end_per_testcase(_TC, Config, {'EXIT',{_,_}}, SCBState) -&gt;
+ case db:check_consistency() of
+ true ->
+ %% DB is good, pass the test.
+ {proplists:delete(tc_status, Config), SCBState};
+ false ->
+ %% DB is not good, mark as skipped instead of failing
+ {{skip, "DB is inconsisten!"}, SCBState}
+ end;
+post_end_per_testcase(_TC, Config, Return, SCBState) -&gt;
+ %% Do nothing if tc does not crash.
+ {Return, SCBState}.</code>
+
+ <note>Recovering from a testcase failure using SCBs should only be done as
+ a last resort. If used wrongly it could become very difficult to
+ determine which tests pass or fail in a test run</note>
