fixes#26123
`cast[T](x)` is a transparent path expression for compiler analysis.
Previously, move/alias analysis could fail to see a later use through a
cast and incorrectly mark the source as moved, causing the issue’s
segmentation fault.
for views,
https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual_experimental.html#view-types-path-expressions:
A cast expression cast[T](e) is a path expression.
It also affects skipConvDfa, isAnalysableFieldAccess, and aliases. And I
might narrow it down for the two cases above mentioned if it causes
problems
(cherry picked from commit f1256ddcf4)
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.
