Both for tests and for system wide install, $PREFIX/lib/nvim/parser
is a valid path for tree-sitter parsers. This also brings the build.zig
behavior in line with how we set up the paths in CMakeLists.txt

Replace the busted-based Lua test runner with a repo-local harness.
The new harness runs spec files directly under `nvim -ll`, ships its own
reporter and lightweight `luassert` shim, and keeps the helper/preload
flow used by the functional and unit test suites.
Keep the file boundary model shallow and busted-like by restoring `_G`,
`package.loaded`, `package.preload`, `arg`, and the process environment
between files, without carrying extra reset APIs or custom assertion
machinery.
Update the build and test entrypoints to use the new runner, add
black-box coverage for the harness itself, and drop the bundled
busted/luacheck dependency path.

If the Nvim session has exited, the nvim_command will fail too.
ERROR test/functional/core/fileio_spec.lua @ 342: tmpdir failure modes

Problem: Fake LSP server does not timeout or respond to SIGTERM as it
does not run the event loop.
Solution: Instead of io.read(), use stdioopen()'s on_stdin callback to
accumulate input and use vim.wait() to wait for input.
Also, in the test suite, don't stop a session when it's not running, as
calling uv.stop() outside uv.run() will instead cause the next uv.run()
to stop immediately, which cancels the next RPC request.

Problem:
Temporary files from /tmp/ and /private/ paths clutter :oldfiles list.
Additionally, the documented Windows default (rA:,rB:) was never applied
due to a missing platform condition.
Solution:
Drop platform-specific shada differences and default to excluding
/tmp/ and /private/ paths.

|
Problem:
Using vim.defer_fn() just before Nvim exit leaks luv handles.
Solution:
Make vim.schedule() return an error message if scheduling failed.
Make vim.defer_fn() close timer if vim.schedule() failed.

On linux /dev/stdin is defined as a symlink to /proc/self/fd/0
This in turn is defined as a "magic" symlink which is allowed to point
to internal kernel objects which really does not have a file
name. As a glaring inconsistency, fopen("/proc/self/fd/0", "r")
works if fd was originally opened using pipe() but not using
socketpair(). As it happens UV_CREATE_PIPE does not create pipes
but creates socket pairs. These two unfortunate conditions
means that using /dev/stdin and similar does not work in
shell commands in nvim on linux. as a work around, override
libuv's descicion and create an actual pipe pair.
This change is not needed on BSD:s but done unconditionally for simplicity,
except for on windows where it is not done for stdout because of windows

Problem:
Every CI log has a lot of noise at the end, which makes it harder to
find relevant test failures:

Solution:
- Skip logging in test-mode.
- This can be reverted later, when these logs are changed to "INFO"
level, per this TODO comment:
```
// TODO(bfredl): This is really ILOG but we want it in all builds.
// add to show_verbose_terminfo() without being too racy ????
WLOG("TUI: terminal mode %d unavailable, state %d", mode, state);
```

- prefer `stdpath(data)/site/spell` instead of looking for random dirs in 'runtimepath'.
- drop unused functions `choose_directory`, `setup`, etc.
|
|
Also don't wait indefinitely for all Nvim processes to exit.
|
|
This reduces the time taken by clear() by over 20% with ASAN.

NEW BUILD SYSTEM!
This is a MVP implementation which supports building the "nvim" binary,
including cross-compilation for some targets.
As an example, you can build a aarch64-macos binary from
an x86-64-linux-gnu host, or vice versa
Add CI target for build.zig currently for functionaltests on linux
x86_64 only
Follow up items:
- praxis for version and dependency bumping
- windows 💀
- full integration of libintl and gettext (or a desicion not to)
- update help and API metadata files
- installation into a $PREFIX
- more tests and linters

Problem:
Default 'statusline' is implemented in C and not representable as
a statusline expression. This makes it hard for user configs/plugins to
extend it.
Solution:
- Change the default 'statusline' slightly to a statusline expression.
- Remove the C implementation.

Problem:
`feed_command()` was added as a "bridge" for old test code. 99% of those
cases should be using `n.command()`, which raises errors instead of
silently continuing the test.
Solution:
Deprecate `feed_command()`. It should not be used in new tests.
All usages of `feed_command()` should be converted to `command()` or
`feed()`.
|
|
Most callers of feed() do not expect feed() to dedent.
Now use a literal space in tests where it looks better.
|
|
|
|
Problem:
Indenting text is a common task in plugins/scripts for
presentation/formatting, yet vim has no way of doing it (especially
"dedent", and especially non-buffer text).
Solution:
Introduce `vim.text.indent()`. It sets the *exact* indentation because
that's a more difficult (and thus more useful) task than merely
"increasing the current indent" (which is somewhat easy with a `gsub()`
one-liner).
|
|
Also change job tests to use `nvim` instead of random programs like `ping`.
|
|
Problem:
Cannot detach the current UI.
Solution:
- Introduce `:detach`.
- Introduce `Channel.detach`.

Problem:
- `n.spawn()` is misleading because it also connects RPC, it's not just
"spawning" a process.
- It's confusing that `n.spawn()` and `n.spawn_argv()` are separate.
Solution:
- Replace `n.spawn()`/`n.spawn_argv()` with a single function `n.new_session()`.
This name aligns with the existing functions `n.set_session`/`n.get_session`.
- Note: removes direct handling of `prepend_argv`, but I doubt that was
important or intentional. If callers want to control use of `prepend_argv`
then we should add a new flag to `test.session.Opts`.
- Move `keep` to first parameter of `n.new_session()`.
- Add a `merge` flag to `test.session.Opts`
- Mark `_new_argv()` as private. Test should use clear/new_session/spawn_wait
instead.
|
|
Problem:
Tests that need to check `nvim` CLI behavior (no RPC session) create
their own ad-hoc `system()` wrappers.
Solution:
- Use `n.spawn_wait` instead of `system()`.
- Bonus: this also improves the tests by explicitly checking for
`stdout` or `stderr`. And if a signal is raised, `ProcStream.status`
will reflect it.
|
|
|
|
Problem:
Can't use `n.clear()` to test non-RPC `nvim` invocations. So tests end
up creating ad-hoc wrappers around `system()` or `jobstart()`.
Solution:
- Introduce `n.spawn_wait()`
- TODO (followup PR): Rename `n.spawn()` and `n.spawn_wait()`.
It's misleading that `n.spawn()` returns a RPC session...
|
|
Similar to how there is a `GDB` environment variable to let the nvim
test instances to be run under `gdbserver` this adds a `OSV_PORT`
variable to start nvim test instances with `osv` in blocking mode to let
a debug client attach to it for debugging of `exec_lua` code blocks.
|
|
By making it a separate module, the embedded Nvim session can require
this module directly instead of setup code sending over the module via
RPC.
Also make exec_lua wrap _G.print so messages can be seen
in the test output immediately as the exec_lua returns.
|
|
Problem:
When tmpdir is local. The returned values from tmpname may already
exist. This can cause problems for tests which pass `create=false` as
they may require the file to not exist yet.
Solution:
When creating tmp names, always remove it to ensure it doesn't exist,
and optionally open it if `create~=false`
Additionally refactor the tmpname code and flattrn some functions into
constants.
Also while debugging this issue. It was discovered that `exec_lua()`
doesn't report error messages properly. This has been fixed.
|
|
Analogous to the shell `rm` command.
|
|
|
|
Problem:
The default builtin UI client does not declare its client info. This
reduces discoverability and makes it difficult for plugins to identify
the UI.
Solution:
- Call nvim_set_client_info after attaching, as recommended by `:help dev-ui`.
- Also set the "pid" field.
- Also change `ui_active()` to return a count. Not directly relevant to
this commit, but will be useful later.
|
|
This module is generally used by any tests that need the full Nvim TUI
instead of `screen.lua`. Thus it should live in `functional/` instead of
in `functional/terminal/`.
|
|
- `alter_slashes` belongs in `testutil.lua`, not `testnvim.lua`.
- `alter_slashes` is an unusual name. Rename it to `fix_slashes`.
- invert its behavior, to emphasize that `/` slashes are the preferred,
pervasive convention, not `\` slashes.

Problem:
If $NVIM_APPNAME is a relative dir path, Nvim fails to start its
primary/default server, and `v:servername` is empty.
Root cause is d34c64e342dfba9248d1055e702d02620a1b31a8, but this wasn't
noticed until 96128a5076b7 started reporting the error more loudly.
Solution:
- `server_address_new`: replace slashes "/" in the appname before using
it as a servername.
- `vim_mktempdir`: always prefer the system-wide top-level "nvim.user/"
directory. That isn't intended to be specific to NVIM_APPNAME; rather,
each *subdirectory* ("nvim.user/xxx") is owned by each Nvim instance.
Nvim "apps" can be identified by the server socket(s) stored in those
per-Nvim subdirs.

Problem:
`'scrollbind'` does not work properly if the window being scrolled
automatically contains any filler/virtual lines (except for diff filler
lines).
This is because when the scrollbind check is done, the logic only
considers changes to topline which are represented as line numbers.
Solution:
Write the logic for determine the scroll amount to take into account
filler/virtual lines.
Fixes #29751

test: do not set termguicolors in test runner
|
|
|
|
It's not clear why this is needed and it has adverse side effects on
other tests.
|
|
Problem:
- The test for vim.deprecate() has a "mock" which is outdated because
vim.deprecate() no longer uses that.
- The tests get confused after a version bump.
Solution:
Make the tests adapt to the current version.
|
|
Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/27004.
