datacomp-expectations: Expectations: comparisons

Description

These functions allow for comparison between two data frames.

Usage

expect_valmatch(
  data2,
  vars,
  by,
  not = FALSE,
  flt = TRUE,
  data = get_testdata()
)
expect_subset(data2, by = NULL, not = FALSE, flt = TRUE, data = get_testdata())

Value

expect_*() functions are mainly called for their side effects. The expectation signals its result (e.g. "success", "failure"), which is logged by the current test reporter. In a non-testing context the expectation will raise an error with class expectation_failure if it fails.

Arguments

data2

The data frame to compare against.

vars

<tidy-select> A set of columns to test.

by

A character vector of columns to join by. See dplyr::join() for details.

not

Reverse the results of the check?

flt

<data-masking> A filter specifying a subset of the data frame to test.

data

A data frame to test. The global test data is used by default.

Details

• expect_valmatch() compares the observations appearing in one data frame (data) to the same observations, as picked out by a key (by), in another data frame (data2). It fails if the selected columns (vars) aren't the same for those observations in both data frames.

• expect_subset() compares one data frame (data) to another (data2) and fails if all of the observations in the first, as picked out by a key (by), do not appear in the second.

Examples

df1 <- data.frame(
  id = 0:99,
  binomial = sample(0:1, 100, TRUE),
  even = abs(0:99%%2 - 1) * 0:99
)

df2 <- data.frame(
  id = 0:99,
  binomial = sample(0:1, 100, TRUE),
  odd = 0:99%%2 *0:99
)


# Check that same records 'succeeded' across data frames
try(expect_valmatch(df2, binomial, by = "id", data = df1))

# Check that all records in `df1`, as picked out by `id`, exist in `df2`
expect_subset(df2, by = "id", data = df1)
