[PATCH] Add a TEST-OP-TEST-FAILURE condition for test libraries to sub-class
by Vladimir Sedach 26 Mar '21

26 Mar '21

Hello! I recently wrote a script to run FiveAM tests for one of my libraries on many different implementations on your own machine: https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/uri-template/uri-template2/blob/master/run-t… It would be really nice if I did not have to copy-paste that script to my other libraries, and instead could contribute a generalized version to Roswell (on which the script is based) and have it work for any project using any test library. What I would like to be able to do, for any system: (handler-case (asdf:test-system "system") (asdf:test-op-test-failure (condition) (princ condition uiop:*stderr*) (uiop:quit 1))) The attached patch adds an ASDF:TEST-OP-TEST-FAILURE condition that test libraries can inherit from. I also added the necessary functionality to FiveAM: https://github.com/sionescu/fiveam/pull/58 It should be easy to add similar functionality to other testing libraries. This will make test automation trivial, with few, if any, changes required to systems that use ASDF and the testing libraries. One thing I would like to discuss is which condition ASDF:TEST-OP-TEST-FAILURE should inherit from. It definitely should not be ERROR - there is no error in test-op, or in running the tests; test failures are a regular and expected occurrence of running tests. Also problematic is widespread abuse of HANDLER-CASE to catch any ERROR; I am afraid if signaled from popular test libraries it would break someone's test running code somewhere. WARNING seems like a nice parent condition, but maybe having ASDF:TEST-OP-TEST-FAILURE inherit from CONDITION is a better idea. Thoughts? Vladimir

Jenkins expertise?
by Robert Goldman 16 Oct '20

Does anyone have expertise configuring Jenkins to run against a remote Gitlab install? If so, would you please reach out to me? I have *finally* restored some of my CI support for ASDF, but I don't know how to set up my Jenkins to run against merge requests on Gitlab (if that is even possible). I have a backlog of patches that I would like to get evaluated and merged, but could use some help with the automation. Thanks!

Don't follow symlinks in uiop:directory* on ECL
by Moritz Petersen 09 Oct '20

Hi, I recently noticed that directory* follows symlinks on ECL, whereas it would be desirable if it didn't. ECLs directory* function follows symlinks by default, but can be instructed not to. Please see below for the tweak and a suggested test case, which I based on test-symlink-loop.script. Thank you, Moritz Petersen
