fixes#24097
For `nkConv` addresses where the conversion is between 2 types that are
equal between backends, treat assignments the same as assignments to the
argument of the conversion. In the VM this seems to be in `genAsgn` and
`genAsgnPatch`, as evidenced by the special logic for `nkDerefExpr` etc.
This doesn't handle ranges after #24037 because `sameBackendType` is
used and not `sameBackendTypeIgnoreRange`. This is so this is
backportable without #24037 and another PR can be opened that implements
it for ranges and adds tests as well. We can also merge
`sameBackendTypeIgnoreRange` with `sameBackendType` since it doesn't
seem like anything that uses it would be affected (only cycle checks and
the VM), but then we still have to add tests.
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.
