While we're at, using the slightly more portable `command -v` technique
to detect the executable. Also, there's no need to use `io.popen()` if
we aren't going to record the path. Instead, let's use the simpler
`os.execute()` to detect the presence of xclip.
In Lua, all math is floating point. We need to coerce the result of a
division into a integer with the `{get,set}_height` and
`{get,set}_width` window_spec functional tests.
The $GDB env var can be set to run tests under gdbserver. If $VALGRIND is also
set, it will add the --vgdb=yes command-line option to valgrind instead of
starting gdbserver.
See https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/1519 for failure report.
Cause : In OSX, /tmp is a symbolic link to /private/tmp, which causes
expected and got results different because of implicit
resolution.
Solution : Resolve path before setting expected value.
Nvim wasn't exiting cleanly in some job tests due to errors.
This can't be noticed until the next commit, which will perform a refactoring to
selectively process K_EVENT, so the `qa!` command executed at the end of each
test blocks forever if there are errors which require the user to press ENTER(in
that state Nvim no longer will process events).
The vim_input function accepts raw terminal input and so is better to emulate
real user, especially because it is not deferred as vim_feedkeys.
Using this function required a number of changes:
- expect() was refactored to use curbuf_contents()
- The vim_eval function in request() was moved to curbuf_contents(). For most
cases this is enough(we only care for synchronizing api calls with user input
when verifying buffer contents).
- <C-@>(NUL) is preprocessed before being passed to replace_termcodes.
- Legacy test 4 had a bug that only became visible when using vim_input, it is
fixed now.
- An extra blank line deletion was required for test 101
The last two items show that vim_feedkeys because it is not 100% equivalent to
receiving terminal input.
Commit @45525853d352 removed usage of the `job_write_cb` for closing stdin due
to a memory error, but that doesn't work anymore because `job_close_in` closes
stdin immediately, possibly trimming input data before it is fully written.
Since most memory issues with jobs have been fixed, re-add the `job_write_cb`
call to ensure stdin is only closed when it should. Also add tests for scenarios
where using the callback makes a difference.
Tests which spin the event loop and stop it in a notification handler have a
chance of re-entering the event loop due to the `vim_eval` call in the
`request()` helper(assuming the request call is what triggered the
notification). Since this will cause an error to be thrown by the lua client,
don't send the extra `vim_eval` request when the loop has been stopped.
Use save_tv_as_string(), same as vimL system(). This also makes
jobsend() more liberal in what it can accept. For example,
`jobsend(j, 123)` is now valid.
Closes#1176
Factor out string_to_list() from f_system()'s implementation
and use that to set job_data. This has the technical advantage of
preserving NULs, and may be more convenient for users.
Required for #1176.
During test setup, we used to call a vimscript function(BeforeEachTest) that
attempted to restore Nvim to it's initial state as much as possible in order to
provide a clean environment for running new tests. This approach has proven to
be unreliable, as some tests leave state that can affect other tests, eventually
causing failures that are difficult to debug.
This commit changes the 'clear' function so it will restart Nvim every time it
is called, which is a slower, but more reliable solution that will simplify
spotting bugs in the future.
Some other improvements/fixes were also performed:
- Whenever an error is detected in a handler passed to "run()", the event loop
will be stopped and the error will be propagated to the main thread.
- Errors and the "cleanup()" function will always send a quit command to the
current Nvim instance. This should prevent memory starvation when running
tests under valgrind(where each Nvim instance can consume a lot of memory).
- Fixed a wrong assertion in server_requests_spec.lua. Previously the failure
was undetected in a notification handler.
- Fixed some tests to expect fully clean registers. The deleted cleanup function
used to put an empty string in every register, but that resulted in a extra
line being added.
