File locations are prefixed with `$::srcdir' so that `make distcheck' can
execute the test suite using a relative path.
The current working directory is removed from the test-suite-bash-prompt.
Furthermore, no more dynamic creation of files in dir $::srcdir/fixtures since
this dir is read-only during `make distcheck'. Instead create dynamic files in
$TESTDIR/tmp
The test suite uses these "directory" variables
tcl bash description
------------ ----------- ------------------------------------
$::srcdir $SRCDIR where `fixtures' reside, relative
$::srcdirabs $SRCDIRABS where `fixtures' reside, absolute
$::TESTDIR $TESTDIR where `runtest' is invoked, absolute
${tool}_start was called from within `config/default_exp', but this
proves to be error-prone, because DejaGnu isn't fully initialized at
that point, causing an error when calling one of the DejaGnu methods
pass/fail/unsupported/xfail/unresolved/untested:
can't read "multipass_name": no such variable
The right way seems to be calling ${tool}_start() from
${tool}_init().
Turn it on dynamically when needed instead; see doc/styleguide.txt for
a longer explanation. This fixes many non-filename completions which
had been previously more or less broken due to unwanted
escape-as-filenames behavior.
_usergroup now has a -u option, and there are new _allowed_users and
_allowed_groups helpers. These can be used to limit returned users
and/or groups to ones that the user has access to (or should be
assumed to have access to if running a "root command").
I had to remove a couple of "funky user" chown test cases because for
some reason they were broken by this change, I didn't immediately find
out why, and I couldn't come up with a valid use case that should be
supported for them that would be more beneficial than the relevance
improvements in this patch.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
$ LANG=POSIX ./run unit/_parse_help.exp
...
Running ./unit/_parse_help.exp ...
FAIL: short + long
FAIL: short + long, slash separated
Cause:
When comparing list items, `assert_bash_list()' expects the real list to be
sorted, whereas the output of `_parse_help' is unsorted.
These particular two tests were failing because they suffered the
following LANG-dependant sort-difference:
$ cat t.txt
-m
--n
$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 sort t.txt
-m
--n
$ LANG=POSIX sort t.txt
--n
-m
Solution:
Made to default for `assert_bash_list' more-intuitive: unsorted, and added an
option `-sort' to explicitly enable sorting.
I felt uncomfortable adding yet another optional argument, so I seized this
opportunity to move subsequent optional arguments to single optional arguments.
E.g.:
assert_bash_list {expected cmd {test ""} {prompt /@} {size 20}} {
has now become:
# ...
# @param list $args Options:
# -nosort Compare list unsorted. Default is sorted
# -prompt Bash prompt. Default is `/@'
# -chunk-size N Compare list N items at a time. Default
# is 20.
assert_bash_list {expected cmd test {args {}}
(and the `test' argument has become mandatory).
This fixes tilde completion when doing for instance `ls ~<TAB>'. See
also: Alioth #312613.
Added _tilde() helper function.
Contrary to _expand() and __expand_tilde_by_ref(), _tilde() also leaves the
tilde (~) intact. Replacement of the tilde has been a complaint in other
bugreports, especially since plain bash completion (without bash-completion
installed) doesn't expand the tilde when doing a `ls ~<TAB>'.
To run the tests:
./run completion/ls.exp
./run unit/_tilde.exp
