2023-12-01Put functional tests in `tests/functional`John Ericson
I think it is bad for these reasons when `tests/` contains a mix of functional and integration tests - Concepts is harder to understand, the documentation makes a good unit vs functional vs integration distinction, but when the integration tests are just two subdirs within `tests/` this is not clear. - Source filtering in the `flake.nix` is more complex. We need to filter out some of the dirs from `tests/`, rather than simply pick the dirs we want and take all of them. This is a good sign the structure of what we are trying to do is not matching the structure of the files. With this change we have a clean: ```shell-session $ git show 'HEAD:tests' tree HEAD:tests functional/ installer/ nixos/ ``` (cherry picked from commit 68c81c737571794f7246db53fb4774e94fcf4b7e)
2023-03-16Cleanup test skippingJohn Ericson
- Try not to put cryptic "99" in many places Factor out `exit 99` into `skipTest` function - Alows make sure skipping a test is done with a reason `skipTest` takes a mandatory argument - Separate pure conditionals vs side-effectful test skipping. "require daemon" already had this, but "sandbox support" did not.
2023-03-08Harden tests' bashJohn Ericson
Use `set -u` and `set -o pipefail` to catch accidental mistakes and failures more strongly. - `set -u` catches the use of undefined variables - `set -o pipefail` catches failures (like `set -e`) earlier in the pipeline. This makes the tests a bit more robust. It is nice to read code not worrying about these spurious success paths (via uncaught) errors undermining the tests. Indeed, I caught some bugs doing this. There are a few tests where we run a command that should fail, and then search its output to make sure the failure message is one that we expect. Before, since the `grep` was the last command in the pipeline the exit code of those failing programs was silently ignored. Now with `set -o pipefail` it won't be, and we have to do something so the expected failure doesn't accidentally fail the test. To do that we use `expect` and a new `expectStderr` to check for the exact failing exit code. See the comments on each for why. `grep -q` is replaced with `grepQuiet`, see the comments on that function for why. `grep -v` when we just want the exit code is replaced with `grepInverse, see the comments on that function for why. `grep -q -v` together is, surprise surprise, replaced with `grepQuietInverse`, which is both combined.

2020-05-30Improve ref validity checking in fetchGitNikola Knezevic
The previous regex was too strict and did not match what git was allowing. It could lead to `fetchGit` not accepting valid branch names, even though they exist in a repository (for example, branch names containing `/`, which are pretty standard, like `release/1.0` branches). The new regex defines what a branch name should **NOT** contain. It takes the definitions from `refs.c` in https://github.com/git/git and `git help check-ref-format` pages. This change also introduces a test for ref name validity checking, which compares the result from Nix with the result of `git check-ref-format --branch`.
