On simple code like:
```nim
type Foo = object
case x: range[0..7]
of 0..2:
a: string
else:
b: string
var foo = Foo()
{.cast(uncheckedAssign).}:
foo.x = 5
```
The compiler tries to generate a destructor for the variant fields by
checking if the discrim is equal to the old one, but the type is not
skipped when looking for an `==` operator in system, so any
discriminator with type `range`/`distinct`/etc crashes with:
```
(10, 9) Error: can't find magic equals operator for type kind tyRange
```
This is fixed by just skipping abstract types.

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.
