Warning when specifying the type of a Spec about purescript-spec HOT 7 CLOSED

This is the right way. You're just using newer package set than Spec was last modified against.

from purescript-spec.

So, is it a matter of you releasing a new version to regisitry? I don't get what would be the solution to this.

from purescript-spec.

Yes, exactly, it's a matter of releasing a new version.

from purescript-spec.

Looking forward to it then. Thanks!!

from purescript-spec.

Actually, on closer inspection, it appears there is something fishy with your code. The Spec type doesn't touch Map in any way, and the only place Map is used in this library at all is in the reporters, which don't come into play at the stage of defining test cases.

Where do you import that Spec type from?

from purescript-spec.

I think I was able to track down the problem but still no clue on why it warns on the Spec. First I import spec using:

import Test.Spec (describe, it, Spec)
import Test.Spec.Assertions (fail, shouldEqual)

Then I have a test that is record with a field that is a Map of Maps. Having it here as reference:

          , techTrack:
              M.fromFoldable
                [ Tuple GermanEmpire (M.fromFoldable [ Tuple Box1 [ Just Offensive ] ])
                , Tuple FrancoBritishEmpire (M.fromFoldable [ Tuple Box2 [ Nothing ] ])
                , Tuple AustroHungarianEmpire mempty
                , Tuple RussianEmpire mempty
                ]

The last 2 lines are the culprits. When I use mempty as in haskell I get the Spec Unit warning. If I change it to M.empty the problem goes away.

If it is of any help, the assertions are sequenced because I didn't want a single test for big nested data structure:

      case parseJson golden >>= decodeJson of
        Left e -> fail ("Couldn't deserialize the golden file: " <> printJsonDecodeError e)
        Right (UpdateGameState obtained) -> do
          obtained.victoryPoints `shouldEqual` expected.victoryPoints
          obtained.techTrack `shouldEqual` expected.techTrack
          obtained.missionsTrack `shouldEqual` expected.missionsTrack
          obtained.turn `shouldEqual` expected.turn
          obtained.counters `shouldEqual` expected.counters
          obtained.areaControl `shouldEqual` expected.areaControl
        Right _ -> fail ("The BEMsg in the file is not an UpdateGameState")

Does it sound a ring on you?

from purescript-spec.

Well yes, that sounds exactly right: you're using mempty for a Map, so you're using the Monoid Map instance, and that's what gives you a warning.
