ringabout 8076fb40b8 fixes transf cannot handle bare sym for nim ic (#25664)
```nim
template compute(body: untyped): int =
  block:
    body
let x = compute:
  var sum = 0
  for i in 1..10: sum += i
  sum
echo x
```

supersedes https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/25653

```nim
of nkSym:
    genSingleVar(p, it.sym, newSymNode(it.sym), it.sym.astdef)
```

A new branch for `nkSym` is added, though more changes might be needed

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.
