Subject: Test cases and Emacs bugs
Date: Fri, 08 Aug 2008 03:22:54 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <489B9FEE.9070309@gmail.com> (raw)
With some help of Christian I have been writing some test cases using
ert.el. I have found ert.el easy to use.
I know that Christian and Phil wants to improve it more. (And I have
some suggestions based on the few tests I have written so far.) I think
that here is a good chance to get a unit test framework into Emacs.
Most of the few tests so far are for nXhtml, but I just wrote a test for
how scrolling is done when `scroll-conservatively' is 1. I wondered if
it was possible to test this. It seems so.
(The result of this test actually shows that Emacs sometimes scrolls
more than 1 line when calling next-line repeatedly. Is this expected or
is it a bug?)
If someone is interested in looking at this it is currently all in
nXhtml package (otherwise I would not have time to test). The test above
is in the latest beta which is here:
http://ourcomments.org/Emacs/DL/elisp/nxhtml/beta/
Maybe this can be used when reporting bugs? Either the reporter or
someone who tries to fix it could write a test for the bug.
