The compiler generates conversion nodes *after* evaluating the branches
of case statements as constants, the reasoning is that case branches
accept constants of different types, like arrays or sets. But this means
that conversion nodes that need to be evaluated like converter calls
don't get evaluated as a constant for codegen. #8336 fixed this by
re-evaluating the node if an `nkHiddenCallConv` was created, and in
#20130 this logic also had to be added for `nkHiddenStdConv` for
cstrings. This logic was only for single case elements, it has now been
added to range elements as well to fix#11422. Additionally, all
conversion nodes are now evaluated for simplicity, but maybe this won't
pass CI.
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.
