Sequence element class

Test fixture initialization:

>>> from dragonfly import *
>>> from dragonfly.test import ElementTester

Sequence

Basic usage:

>>> seq = Sequence([Literal("hello"), Literal("world")])
>>> test_seq = ElementTester(seq)
>>> test_seq.recognize("hello world")
[u'hello', u'world']

Sequence

Basic usage:

>>> seq = Sequence([Literal("hello"), Literal("world")])
>>> test_seq = ElementTester(seq)
>>> test_seq.recognize("hello world")
[u'hello', u'world']
>>> test_seq.recognize("hello universe")
RecognitionFailure

Constructor arguments:

>>> c1, c2 = Literal("hello"), Literal("world")
>>> len(Sequence(children=[c1, c2]).children)
2
>>> Sequence(children=[c1, c2], name="sequence_test").name
'sequence_test'
>>> Sequence([c1, c2], "sequence_test").name
'sequence_test'
>>> Sequence("invalid_children_type")
