Minecraft Snapshot 25w03a

This week's snapshot comes with a huge update to game tests! The game tests system is now accessible through data packs with the new test command. You can now run block based tests with the new test block or set up even more versatile test from code in mods.

Happy testing!

Changes#

• Leaf Litter can be used in the Composter
• Saddles equipped onto Pigs or Striders will now maintain properties such as custom name when dropped

Technical Changes#

• The Data Pack version is now 63
• The Resource Pack version is now 48
• New entry point net.minecraft.gametest.Main is present in the server jar
  • Automatically starts a server and runs all available game tests

Game Test Main#

This new entry point automatically starts a server, runs all available game test and then exists.

Options:

• --help - Shows usage information
• --packs <path> - Set a folder of datapacks to include in the world
  • Any zip file or folder with a pack.mcmeta file is included
• --report <path> - Exports results in a junit-like XML report at the given path
• --tests <selection> - Specify which tests to run with a selection - a wildcard expression matching namespace test instance IDs
  • If omitted, or used with an empty ID, runs all tests
• --universe <path> - The path to where the test server world will be created
  • Any existing folder will be replaced
  • Default: gametestserver
• --verify <boolean> - Enables test verification
  • Runs the tests specified with test or testNamespace 100 times for each 90 degree rotation step
  • Default: false

Example usage: java -DbundlerMainClass="net.minecraft.gametest.Main" -jar server.jar --packs mytestpacks

Data Pack Versions 63#

• The Game Tests system is now accessible through data packs and for mods
• Entity variants are now set and queried with components
• Added saddle equipment slot, driven by the equippable component - Only mobs that normally support saddles will support riding and rendering of the saddle - Items in the saddle slot can apply attribute modifiers as with other equipment

Game Tests#

The Game Tests system is a new integrated system for testing aspects of the game. Each test is an asset defining some parameters for how the test gets executed, combined with a saved structure file containing a base setup.

Generally, the test framework expects to run tests in a separate superflat world.

Test Instances#

Test instances are defined in the registry test_instance. They're small assets defining a test to run.

Fields:

• environment: Namespaced ID of the test environment to run this test as part of
• structure: The namespaced ID of the structure to use for the test
• max_ticks: A positive integer representing the maximum number of ticks allowed to pass before the test is considered timed out
• setup_ticks: Optional non-negative integer (default: 0) representing a number of ticks to wait after placing the structure before starting the test
• required: Optional boolean (default true) - whether the test is considered required to pass for the full test suite to pass
• rotation: Optional rotation to apply to the test structure
  • One of none (default), clockwise_90, 180 and counterclockwise_90
• manual_only: Optional boolean (default false), set to true for tests that are not included as part of automated test runs
• sky_access: Whether the test needs clear access to the sky
  • By default (false), tests are enclosed in barrier blocks - if set to true, the top is left open
• max_attempts: Number of attempts to run the test (default 1)
• required_successes: Number of attempts that must succeed for the test to be considered successful (default 1)
• type: The type of test - one of block_based and function

Function Tests#

Function tests rely on built-in functions to run a test and indicate success or failure. They have one additional field:

• function: The namespaced ID of the Test Function to run

See the "Using the Game Test Framework from Code" changelog section for more information.

Block Based Tests#

Block based tests use Test Blocks in the test structure to run the test and indicate success or failure.

Test Environments#

Test Environments are a way to group up tests and give them the right preconditions to run. A Test Environment is an asset in the test_environment registry. Each Test Environment definition has a type field that determines its setup:

• all_of definitions apply the setup from several sub-definitions in the definitions field
• function definitions use mcfunction files as setup and teardown
  • setup: Optional namespaced ID of the mcfunction to use for setup, if any
  • teardown: Optional namespaced ID of the mcfunction to use for teardown, if any
• game_rules: definitions set any number of game rules
  • bool_rules: A list of boolean game rules to set and the value to set
  • int_rules: A list of integer game rules to set and the value to set
  • Each rule is an object with two fields:
    • rule: The exact name of the rule to set
    • value: The value to set
  • Game rules are reset to their default values after the test environment has completed
• weather definitions sets the weather state
  • weather: The weather to set - one of clear, rain and thunder
• time_of_day definitions set a given time of day
  • time: The time of day to set in number of ticks, as a non-negative integer

The game provides a single, empty Test Environment by default: minecraft:default.

Test Blocks#

The Test Block is a block used for implementing a block-based tests. It has four modes:

• start: Triggers a redstone pulse when the test starts
• log: Logs a message to the log file when powered by redstone
• fail: Fails the test when powered by redstone
• accept: Completes the test when powered by redstone

Block-based tests are required to have at least one start block and one accept block in the structure.

The test Command#

The test command is a new command used to create and run tests.

Syntax:

test clearall [<radius>]
test clearthat
test clearthese

test create <test> [<width>] [<height> <depth>]

test locate <selector>

test resetclosest
test reseetthese
test resetthat

test pos [<variable>]

test run <selector> [<numberOfTimes>] [<untilFailed>] [<rotationSteps>] [<testsPerRow>]
test runclosest [<numberOfTimes>] [<untilFailed>]
test runfailed [<numberOfTimes>] [<untilFailed>] [<rotationSteps>] [<testsPerRow>]
test runmultiple <selector> [<amount>]
test runthat [<numberOfTimes>] [<untilFailed>]
test runthese [<numberOfTimes>] [<untilFailed>]

test stop

test verify <tests>

Parameters:

• radius: The radius to clear tests within
• test: The namespaced ID of a test
• selector: A wildcard-enabled selector for test IDs
  • Supports * and ? for matching namespaced IDs
  • If namespace is not supplied, defaults to minecraft
  • Examples:
    • *:* - matches all IDs
    • * - matches everything in the minecraft namespace
    • custom:folder/*_test_? - matches IDs in the folder folder of the custom namespace, with a prefix followed by _test_ followed by a single valid character
• width: The width of the test structure - if omitted, 5 is used
• height: The height of the test structure - if omitted, the width is used
• depth: The depth of the test structure - if omitted, the width is used
• variable: The variable name to include in the copied code snippet
• numberOfTimes: The number of times to repeat each test - if omitted, 1 is ued
• untilFailed: Boolean (default false) noting that the test should be stopped as soon as one iteration fails
• rotationSteps: Number of extra 90 degree steps to apply to the test - if omitted, 0 is used
• testsPerRow: Number of tests to place per row in a grid layout - if omitted, 8 is used

test clear*#

These subcommands clear the structures and blocks associated with the selected tests.

test create#

This subcommand creates a test setup in the current location for the given test, preparing for a structure of the given size. This gives a starting point for creating the structure for the test.

test locate#

Attempts to locate the given test. Note that only loaded chunks are searched.

test reset*#

These subcommands reset the structures for the selected tests, removing any surrounding barriers and placing the structure in from scatch.

test pos#

Shows the local coordinates to the block pointed at in the test. If the optional variable name is specified, this variable name is used in a code fragment obtained by clicking on the coordinates in the output message.

test run*#

Runs one or more tests. If multiple tests are run at once, they are placed in a grid and run in parallel, although only up to a certain limit. Beyond that limit, tests are run in rounds where each round completes before any tests from the next round are started.

For each test, loads the given structure and runs the associated test. Each test location will have a beacon beam showcasing the test status.

• Gray beacon = in progress
• Red = fail (required test)
• Orange = fail (optional test)
• Green = success

If a test fails, the error is shown on a lectern book and an overlay.

Note that Game Tests are designed to run on standard superflat worlds. The area around each test is replaced with stone when it runs, and the running test is encased in barrier blocks.

test stop#

This stops all running tests. Note that gameplay events triggered by tests may still remain.

test verify*#

Verifies one or more tests by running multiple instances of the same test.

Test Instance Blocks#

To run a test in a world, a Test Instance Block is used. This type of block represents the test as placed in the world and is used to interact with that test, to save the structure, reset or run the test.

Using the test command to run or create a test will also place a Test Instance Block to control that test.

Using the Game Test Framework from Code#

The Game Test Framework can also be used from code in a more versatile manner than block-based tests. For this to work, you need to mod the game to add your test functions to the test_function registry (Registries.TEST_FUNCTION).

Hook into some startup method (pre-registry bootstrap) to add your loader - call TestFunctionLoader.registerLoader() with an implementation of TestFunctionLoader. Your implementation can then use the provided register consumer to register test functions with their namespaced IDs. This namespaced ID can then be referenced in a function type Test Instance.

A test function is a Consumer<GameTestHelper>, using that GameTestHelper instance to manipulate the world and make assertions about the state of the resulting world.

The helper can be used to summon mobs, set blocks, query for blocks and entities and assert the state of the test. Most GameTestHelper methods take test-local coordinates, which you can also find using /test pos.

Example code that might go along with a test structure with a locked hopper containing a cod, pointed into a furnace:

public void furnace_smelts_item(final GameTestHelper helper) {
    helper.setBlock(0, 4, 0, Blocks.AIR);
    helper.succeedWhen(() -> helper.assertContainerContainsSingle(new BlockPos(0, 0, 0), Items.COOKED_COD));
}

More complicated setups will often use helper.startSequence() to model sequences of events that must happen.

As opposed to block-based tests, function tests failing will often produce more helpful error messages including the location of whatever failed and what was expected at that location.
