[RFC PATCH v2 0/7] Introduce clar testing framework

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

 



Hi,

this is the second version of my RFC patch series that introduces the
clar testing framework into our unit tests. The intent is to not have to
hand-craft all features of a proper unit testing framework, while still
not painting us into a corner. As such, the clar itself is small and
extensible while still bringing some nice features to the table.

Changes compared to v1:

  - Convert the ctypes unit tests to use clar, as I had it lying around
    anyway and René was asking for it.

  - Adopt the AWK-based script by René, replacing the Python-based one.
    This gets rid of the mandatory Python dependency and at the same
    time also allows us to be more flexible going forward.

  - Wire up the third party sources in our Makefiles such that they do
    not get linted via hdr-check or Coccinelle.

  - Fix t/Makefile to not pass GIT_TEST_OPTS to our unit tests. They
    don't know how to handle those options, and clar-based tests error
    out when they see unknown options.

  - Adapt Documentation/technical/unit-tests.txt to mention the clar.

  - Rebase the series onto the latest master at 406f326d27 (The second
    batch, 2024-08-01) to avoid some conflicts.

  - Cherry-pick a whitespace fix that otherwise makes git-apply(1)
    unhappy. The CI job is still broken because the first patch that
    imports clar continues to be broken. I've created an upstream PR.

  - Cherry-pick a fix by Randall to make clar work on HP NonStop. The
    fix has been proposed upstream in a PR.

With these changes, the CI jobs at GitLab all pass, except for the
whitespace and clang-format checks.

I've also Cc'd Ed, one of the maintainers of clar. I also noticed that
I'm a maintainer of that project back from my libgit2 times, so I think
it should be relatively easy to land changes upstream.

Thanks!

Patrick
