Hope this will make people using feed_command less likely: this hides bugs.
Already found at least two:
1. msgpackparse() will show internal error: hash_add() in case of duplicate
keys, though it will still work correctly. Currently silenced.
2. ttimeoutlen was spelled incorrectly, resulting in option not being set when
expected. Test was still functioning somehow though. Currently fixed.
It is otherwise impossible to determine which test failed sanitizer/valgrind
check. test/functional/helpers.lua module return was changed so that tests which
do not provide after_each function to get new check will automatically fail.
The hexadecimal notation is a Luajit extension which is not compatible with Lua
5.1. While Lua 5.2 does support hexadecimal sequences, it is better to target
Lua 5.1 for maximum compatibility with Luajit(which has fully compatible with
5.1 API/ABI).
This is the part of the test that relies on wall clock time and sometimes
fails if the system is under load. The test is repeated up to three times
before a failure is reported to the user.
:undojoin can only be used inside scripts and command chains. So it has to be
tested inside an explicit `source()` call.
Also add a new test case for the different behavior when sourceing normal mode
commands from a script or inserting them interactively.
The legacy test uses `set ul=100` to break the changes into blocks that can be
undone separately. This is needed because the legacy test is sourced from a
file and changes would be grouped into on undo block by default. The lua test
suite does not have this restriction.
Also add a new test case to test this effect of using `set ul=100` in a
sourced script.
This test is real time based as it also tests the `:earlier` and `:later`
commands with time arguments (using `:sleep`). This can sometimes case the
test to fail on systems that are under heavy load or where the time interval
between creating the expected buffer state and the `:earlier` or `:later`
command that tries to jump to it changes.
To be system independent we use nvim's `:sleep` command and `wait()` for it in
the test suit.
The legacy vim test writes to test.out a lot with `:.w >>test.out`. This
does currently not work in the lua test suite so the test is modernized to use
busted's assertions instead of the output file.
This test was treated special in the legacy Makefile but after the conversion
the related code can be removed.
