Objective Test objective::Tests basic arithmetic operations

Setup [[Test setup::--
  1. Open the TurtleArt activity.
  2. Drag a 'forward' block onto the field and remove it's value by dragging it onto the toolbox.
  3. Connect another 'forward' block immediately below the first 'forward' block. Leave its value as 100.
  4. Connect a 'print' block immediately below the last 'forward' block.
  5. Place a 'ycor' value in the print block.]]
Procedure [[Test procedure::Test Procedure (repeat for all test values below):
  1. Click the 'clean' button at the top of the screen.
  2. Connect the math function under test to the input of the first 'forward' statement.
  3. Change the default values to the values specified by the test.
  4. Run the sequence.
  5. Make sure the value printed to the output matches the expected value.
  6. In all cases, the turtle must have moved upwards, be at the upmost position of the drawn line and facing upwards.

Expected Results

  • All outputs are truncated to 1 decimal place.
  • Mathematically invalid operations should show a #syntaxerror
  • Arithmetic overflow is not likely to be a problem for the range of values required, hence is not tested.
