ringabout 1f07fdd2dc fixes #24664; always sets the \0 terminator in appendString (#24703)
fixes #24664

```nim
proc main() = 
    for i in 0..1:
        var s = "12345"
        s.add s
        echo s

main()
```
In the given example, `add` contains two steps: `prepareAdd` and
`appendString`. In the first step, a new buffer is created in order to
store the final doubled string. But it doesn't copy the null terminator,
neither zeromem the left unused spaces. It causes a problem because
`appendString` will copy itself which doesn't end with `\0` properly so
contaminated memory is copied instead.

```
var s = 12345\0

prepareAdd:

var s = 12345xxxxx\0

appendString:

var s = 1234512345x
```

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.
