ert should macros seem to behave strangely when nested.

Consider the following reproduction:

(require 'cl-lib)
(require 'ert)

(princ
 (cl-cdadr
  (ert-test-result-with-condition-condition
   (ert-run-test
    (make-ert-test
     :body
     (lambda () (should (eq 1 2))))))))

(princ "\nSecond test\n")

(princ
 (should
  (equal
   (cl-cdadr
    (ert-test-result-with-condition-condition
     (ert-run-test
      (make-ert-test
       :body
       (lambda () (should (eq 1 2)))))))
   '(:form (eq 1 2) :value nil))))

(princ "\n")

In Emacs-25 the following behaviour is seen when running this in batch.

~/src/git/emacs-git/emacs-25$ ./src/emacs --batch -l temp.el
(:form (eq 1 2) :value nil)
Second test
t


In Emacs-26, however, we get a different behaviour:


~/src/git/emacs-git/emacs-26$ ./phil_emacs.sh 
(:form (eq 1 2) :value nil)
Second test
Test failed: ((should (equal (cl-cdadr (ert-test-result-with-condition-condition (ert-run-test (make-ert-test :body (lambda nil (should (eq 1 2))))))) (quote (:form (eq 1 2) :value nil)))) :form (equal nil (:form (eq 1 2) :value nil)) :value nil :explanation (different-types nil (:form (eq 1 2) :value nil)))


So, although, the return type of this lot:

 (cl-cdadr
  (ert-test-result-with-condition-condition
   (ert-run-test
    (make-ert-test
     :body
     (lambda () (should (eq 1 2))))))))

remains the same between Emacs-25 and Emacs-26, a test for this breaks.

This regression is caused by:

commit 054c198c120c1f01a8ff753892d52710b740acc6

found by bisection. The regression continues on master.

I will try and find a simpler reproduction.

This reproduction with a simpler test shows that the problem is nesting.

(require 'ert)

(defun simple-test ()
  (ert-test-result-with-condition-condition
   (ert-run-test
    (make-ert-test
     :body
     (lambda () (should (eq 1 2)))))))

(princ (simple-test))

(princ "\nAnd forcibly unnested\n")

(princ
 (let ((res (simple-test)))
   (should
    (equal
     '(ert-test-failed
       ((should (eq 1 2)) :form (eq 1 2) :value nil))
     res))))


(princ "\nAnd nested\n")

(princ
 (should
  (equal
   '(ert-test-failed
     ((should (eq 1 2)) :form (eq 1 2) :value nil))
   (simple-test))))

(princ "\n")


Emacs-25

(ert-test-failed ((should (eq 1 2)) :form (eq 1 2) :value nil))
And forcibly unnested
t
And nested
t


Emacs-26

(ert-test-failed ((should (eq 1 2)) :form (eq 1 2) :value nil))
And forcibly unnested
t
And nested
Test failed: ((should (equal (quote (ert-test-failed ((should (eq 1 2)) :form (eq 1 2) :value nil))) (simple-test))) :form (equal (ert-test-failed ((should (eq 1 2)) :form (eq 1 2) :value nil)) (((should (eq 1 2)) :form (eq 1 2) :value nil))) :value nil :explanation (proper-lists-of-different-length 2 1 (ert-test-failed ((should (eq 1 2)) :form (eq 1 2) :value nil)) (((should (eq 1 2)) :form (eq 1 2) :value nil)) first-mismatch-at 0))

Hmm, according to https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=24402#56
we thought nesting should still have worked, but apparently that was too
optimistic.

Unfortunately, yes. I didn't try nesting two ert-deftest macros, just
two should's. As the original bug report suggests it's for testing a
test library (https://github.com/phillord/assess).

I do have a work around now (which is to unnest the shoulds); and
fortunately, this work-around is backward compatible which is important
for me. I still have another test failure in my library,
though. Probably caused by the same thing but I haven't worked on it
yet.

Just noting that the fix for this bug has caused a regression.

I have a patch for ert which removes it's (ab)use of the debugger, it
seems to fix this case (and also Bug#11218).  Note that it relies on my
patch in #24618 for a catch-all condition-case handler clause.

Subject: [PATCH v1 1/3] Use signal-hook-function in ert, not debugger

Stop (ab)using the `debugger' in ert.el for backtrace recording.
Instead, use `signal-hook-function' for this purpose, which makes
ert's behavior independent of `debug-on-error'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/ert.el (ert--should-signal-hook): Remove.
(ert--expand-should-1): Don't bind signal-hook-function.
(ert-debug-on-error): Obsolete, alias to debug-on-error (replace all
uses accordingly).
(ert--test-execution-info): Remove exit-continuation, next-debugger,
and ert-debug-on-error fields.
(ert--run-test-debugger): Remove.
(ert--store-backtrace): New function, to replace it.
(ert--run-test-internal): Use condition-case and bind
`signal-hook-function' rather than binding `debugger'.
(ert-run-test): Remove the `cl-block' for the now removed
exit-continuation.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/ert-tests.el
(ert-test-fail-debug-nested-with-debugger): Remove.
(ert-nested-should): New test (Bug#30745).
(ert-with-demoted-errors): New test (Bug#11218).

But it bumps into another bug lurking in process.c, which just happened
to work okay previously because ert would bind debug-on-error while
running tests.  There is only one test in the Emacs test suite which
triggers this, we can work around it by binding debug-on-error there:

Subject: [PATCH v1 2/3] Work around (should-error ... accept-process-output)
 bug

This is needed to let the test `json-el-cant-serialize-this' pass with
the previous change.  That test expects a signal to propogate up from
accept-process-output.  This did happen previously because ert used to
bind `debug-on-error' while running, but since the previous change it
no longer does so.  The function read_and_dispose_of_process_output
would catch errors if `debug-on-error' is nil.
* test/lisp/jsonrpc-tests.el (json-el-cant-serialize-this): Let-bind
debug-on-error around the should-error body.

This third patch is not really needed to fix the bug, but I had to
simplify the code in order to figure out what was going on anyway.

Subject: [PATCH v1 3/3] Simplify ert `should'-expansion macro machinery

* lisp/emacs-lisp/ert.el (ert--should-execution-observer): Default to
`ignore'.
(ert--signal-should-execution): Now we don't need to check if
ert--should-execution-observer is nil.
(ert--last-should-execution): New function.
(ert--special-operator-p): Remove, replace usage with special-form-p.
(ert--do-form): New function.
(ert--expand-should, ert--expand-should-1): Coalesce, remove the
latter.
(should, should-not, should-error, ert--skip-unless): Simplify
accordingly.
(ert-run-test): Adjust `ert--should-execution-observer' to make
`ert--last-should-execution' work.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/ert-tests.el (ert-test-special-operator-p):
Move to...
* test/lisp/subr-tests.el (special-form-p): ...here.

#24618 was fixed a few weeks later, but this patch was never applied?

Also it seems to be breaking some electric tests

   FAILED  electric-layout-plainer-c-mode-use-c-style
   FAILED  electric-modes-int-main-allman-style

I don't really have any clue why though.

How many tests (besides the jsonrpc one) do we expect to be broken due
to this? It seems that tests relying on such a bug are inherently
brittle, so maybe we can bite the bullet and apply the patch
nevertheless? Or introduce another hack in process.c that treats ERT
tests specially, as if debug-on-error were bound?

I wanted to try Noam's patch set, but it's two years old, so it doesn't
apply any more.  Noam, do you have an updated patch set, by any chance?
