| 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.

| It's now at /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/misc/hello/default.nix:7:7: instead of at: (7:7) in file: /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/misc/hello/default.nix The new format is more standard and clickable. | |||

| 2018-02-07 | Improve filtering of ANSI escape sequences in build logs | Eelco Dolstra | |
| All ANSI sequences except color setting are now filtered out. In particular, terminal resets (such as from NixOS VM tests) are filtered out. Also, fix the completely broken tab character handling. | |||
