KUNIT_ASSERT_TRUE(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so KUNIT_ASSERT_TRUE(9) is from the Kernel API Manual, and it literally sets an assertion that @condition is true. that's the whole vibe ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

KUNIT_ASSERT_TRUE (test , condition );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• test — the test context object. 🫶
• condition — an arbitrary boolean expression. The test fails and aborts when this does not evaluate to true. 😭

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea: this assertion, and every assertion shaped like KUNIT_ASSERT_*, will cause the test case to fail and immediately abort when the specified condition is not met. not a drill, bestie — it will prevent the test case from continuing to run. Unlike an expectation failure, this is otherwise known as an assertion failure. 💅✨
