@TomPridham Same example in rstest:

#[rstest]
#[case::when_both_operands_are_negative(-2, -4]
#[case::when_both_operands_are_positive(2,  4)]
#[case::when_operands_are_swapped(4,  2)]
fn multiplication_tests(x: i8, y: i8) {
    let actual = (x * y).abs();
    assert_eq!(8, actual)
}

Output should be something like

test multiplication_tests::case_1_when_both_operands_are_negative ... ok
test multiplication_tests::case_2_when_both_operands_are_positive ... ok
test multiplication_tests::case_3_when_operands_are_swapped ... ok

You can find the motivation of why I choose to leave the case_<nr> also when description is present in #167

Ok,
the issue here is that the values are just expressions at compile time: We cannot know what value we can have at runtime.

What we can do is simply add a sanitized string from the expression by just take valid characters and discard the others. Maybe some chars can be replaced by _ (i.e. :) instead just discarding.

Thanks for checking this! and this sounds good

I'll limit the rendered part to 64 chars.... It should be enough.

it would also be nice to be able to specify a string name for parameterized tests as well, similar to: https://docs.rs/test-case/latest/test_case/#example-usage

You can already do it for cases... not for values.

https://docs.rs/rstest/latest/rstest/attr.rstest.html#optional-case-description

For values doesn't have too much sense IMHO
