Problem: Moving tabpages on :drop may cause an endless loop
Solution: Disallow moving tabpages on :drop when cleaning up the arglist
first
Moving tabpages during drop command may cause an endless loop
When executing a :tab drop command, Vim will close all windows not in
the argument list. This triggers various autocommands. If a user has
created an 'au Tabenter * :tabmove -' autocommand, this can cause Vim to
end up in an endless loop, when trying to iterate over all tabs (which
would trigger the tabmove autocommand, which will change the tpnext
pointer, etc).
So instead of blocking all autocommands before we actually try to edit
the given file, lets simply disallow to move tabpages around. Otherwise,
we may change the expected number of events triggered during a :drop
command, which users may rely on (there is actually a test, that expects
various TabLeave/TabEnter autocommands) and would therefore be a
backwards incompatible change.
Don't make this an error, as this could trigger several times during the
drop command, but silently ignore the :tabmove command in this case (and
it should in fact finally trigger successfully when loading the given
file in a new tab). So let's just be quiet here instead.

This directory contains tests for various Vim features. For testing an indent script see runtime/indent/testdir/README.txt. If it makes sense, add a new test method to an already existing file. You may want to separate it from other tests with comment lines. TO ADD A NEW STYLE TEST: 1) Create a test_<subject>.vim file. 2) Add test_<subject>.res to NEW_TESTS_RES in Make_all.mak in alphabetical order. 3) Also add an entry "test_<subject>" to NEW_TESTS in Make_all.mak. 4) Use make test_<subject> to run a single test. At 2), instead of running the test separately, it can be included in "test_alot". Do this for quick tests without side effects. The test runs a bit faster, because Vim doesn't have to be started, one Vim instance runs many tests. At 4), to run a test in GUI, add "GUI_FLAG=-g" to the make command. What you can use (see test_assert.vim for an example): - Call assert_equal(), assert_true(), assert_false(), etc. - Use assert_fails() to check for expected errors. - Use try/catch to avoid an exception aborts the test. - Use test_alloc_fail() to have memory allocation fail. This makes it possible to check memory allocation failures are handled gracefully. You need to change the source code to add an ID to the allocation. Add a new one to alloc_id_T, before aid_last. - Use test_override() to make Vim behave differently, e.g. if char_avail() must return FALSE for a while. E.g. to trigger the CursorMovedI autocommand event. See test_cursor_func.vim for an example. - If the bug that is being tested isn't fixed yet, you can throw an exception with "Skipped" so that it's clear this still needs work. E.g.: throw "Skipped: Bug with <c-e> and popupmenu not fixed yet" - The following environment variables are recognized and can be set to influence the behavior of the test suite (see runtest.vim for details) - $TEST_MAY_FAIL=Test_channel_one - ignore those failing tests - $TEST_FILTER=Test_channel - only run test that match this pattern - $TEST_SKIP_PAT=Test_channel - skip tests that match this pattern - $TEST_NO_RETRY=yes - do not try to re-run failing tests You can also set them in Vim: :let $TEST_MAY_FAIL = 'Test_channel_one' :let $TEST_FILTER = '_set_mode' :let $TEST_SKIP_PAT = 'Test_loop_forever' :let $TEST_NO_RETRY = 'yes' Use an empty string to revert, e.g.: :let $TEST_FILTER = '' - See the start of runtest.vim for more help. TO ADD A SCREEN DUMP TEST: Mostly the same as writing a new style test. Additionally, see help on "terminal-dumptest". Put the reference dump in "dumps/Test_func_name.dump". OLD STYLE TESTS: There are a few tests that are used when Vim was built without the +eval feature. These cannot use the "assert" functions, therefore they consist of a .in file that contains Normal mode commands between STARTTEST and ENDTEST. They modify the file and the result gets written in the test.out file. This is then compared with the .ok file. If they are equal the test passed. If they differ the test failed. RUNNING THE TESTS: To run a single test from the src directory: $ make test_<name> The below commands should be run from the src/testdir directory. To run a single test: $ make test_<name>.res The file 'messages' contains the messages generated by the test script. If a test fails, then the test.log file contains the error messages. If all the tests are successful, then this file will be an empty file. - To run a single test function from a test script: $ ../vim -u NONE -S runtest.vim <test_file>.vim <function_name> - To execute only specific test functions, add a second argument: $ ../vim -u NONE -S runtest.vim test_channel.vim open_delay - To run all the tests: $ make - To run the test on MS-Windows using the MSVC nmake: > nmake -f Make_dos.mak - To run the tests with GUI Vim: $ make GUI_FLAG=-g or $ make VIMPROG=../gvim - To cleanup the temporary files after running the tests: $ make clean
