[PATCH v3 02/10] t5526: stop asserting on stderr literally

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In the previous commit message, we noted that not all of the "git fetch"
stderr is relevant to the tests. Most of the test setup lines are
dedicated to these details of the stderr:

1. which repos (super/sub/deep) are involved in the fetch
2. the head of the remote-tracking branch before the fetch (i.e. $head1)
3. the head of the remote-tracking branch after the fetch (i.e. $head2)

1. and 3. are relevant because they tell us that the expected commit is
fetched by the expected repo, but 2. is completely irrelevant.

Stop asserting on $head1 by replacing it with a dummy value in the
actual and expected output. Do this by introducing test
helpers (check_*()) that make it easier to construct the expected
output, and use sed to munge the actual output.

Per Ævar's suggestion [1], I reverted the test suite changes that
replaced "test_cmp" with "grep", and opted to munge out irrelevant
details with "sed". Opinion on "grep" vs "test_cmp" seems a bit split,
and there are good arguments for either, but for these tests, I think
test_cmp works better for a few reasons:

- The motivation for removing test_cmp in the old patch 1 [2], i.e.
  we _want_ to ignore changes in the test output, turned out to be
  absolutely incorrect. We actually care a lot about the changes in test
  output because it tells us where we are reading the submodule info
  from.

  In the v1-2 test scheme, verify_fetch_result() would ignore those
  changes, so I added extra extra grep-s specifically to check
  where the submodule is read from. ([3] comments on one of these). I
  could have generalized verify_fetch_result() to handle those extra
  grep-s, but since the original motivation for using grep is gone,
  test_cmp seemed like a viable alternative for an intuitive test
  scheme.

- verify_fetch_result() is easier to reason about because we now assert
  on the output almost verbatim (besides munging), instead of mixing
  greps and negative greps to get a similar result. This should be
  helpful for someone updating the tests later.

- When a test can't use verify_fetch_result() (e.g. it involves other
  submodules, patch 9 adds some of these), I found it a lot easier to
  write the test using test_cmp instead of grep.

- test_cmp tests are sensitive to unmeaningful changes, but this
  behavior helps us catch unwanted regressions and (in these tests at
  least) it is relatively easy to change test_cmp tests to do the right
  thing.
