implements https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/557 It inserts defect handing into a bare except branch ```nim try: raiseAssert "test" except: echo "nope" ``` => ```nim try: raiseAssert "test" except: # New behaviov, now well-defined: **never** catches the assert, regardless of panic mode raiseDefect() echo "nope" ``` In this way, `except` still catches foreign exceptions, but panics on `Defect`. Probably when Nim has `except {.foreign.}`, we can extend `raiseDefect` to foreign exceptions as well. That's supposed to be a small use case anyway. `--legacy:noPanicOnExcept` is provided for a transition period.
This directory contains the test cases.
Each test must have a filename of the form: t*.nim
Note: Testament is only aware of tests under a directory (eg tests/foo/) and will ignore
top-level tests like tests/tbar.nim.
Specs
Each test can contain a spec in a discard """ ... """ block.
Check out the parseSpec procedure in the specs module for a full and reliable reference
action
Specifies what action this test should take.
Default: run
Options:
compile- compiles the module and fails the test if compilations fails.run- compiles and runs the module, fails the test if compilation or execution of test code fails.reject- compiles the module and fails the test if compilation succeeds.
There are certain spec keys that imply run, including output and
outputsub.
Categories
Each folder under this directory represents a test category, which can be
tested by running koch tests pcat <category> (or cat to avoid parallel
testing, which is slower).
The folder dll contains simple DLL tests.
The folder realtimeGC contains a test for validating that the realtime GC
can run properly without linking against the nimrtl.dll/so.
