Constantine Molchanov 37223d2ea9 Feature: Rest: .. include::: Support :start-after: and :end-before: in :literal: mode (#26130)
With this addition, we can include code samples in the docs using
comments as achors. This is analogous to mdBook's
[shiftinclude](https://github.com/daviddrysdale/mdbook-shiftinclude)
preprocessor, which is used extensively in the Status projects docs,
e.g.:
https://github.com/status-im/nim-chronos/blob/master/docs/src/tutorials/http_client/chapter1.md?plain=1#L16

P.S. One missing piece would be the ability to de-dent the included code
automatically but that's a feature for another PR. This isn't as
critical as the ability to include parts of the code.

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.
