test/emacs: add workaround for Emacs 30 pp changes

2025-02-25T11:25:59Z

This relies on the fact that setting pp-default-function has no effect for Emacs <30.

test: minimize impact of native compilation.

2023-08-26T10:45:36Z

Native compilation is kindof useless in the test suite because we throw away the cache after every subtest. The test suite could in principle share an eln cache within a given test file; for now try to minimize the amount of native-compilation. There is an intermittent bug where emacs loses track of its default-directory; I suspect (but have no proof) that bug is related to native compilation and/or race conditions. This patch seems to prevent that bug (or at least reduce its frequency).

test/emacs: adapt to breaking change in Gnus defaults

2023-08-20T17:32:02Z

As of Emacs 29.1, In-Reply-To is in the default value for message-hidden-headers. We actually want to see that in the test suite, so remove it again. To future proof the tests, fix a default value for message-hidden-headers specifically for the test suite.

perf-test: allow running test_emacs from performance test suite.

2022-02-25T12:38:03Z

test_require_external prereq has to move to test-lib-common.sh, and the new shell functions print_emacs_header and time_emacs are provided. The somewhat indirect way of printing the output is to avoid the extra "" present on string values from emacsclient.

test/emacs: provide macro test-log-error

2021-09-11T13:10:16Z

Because of the way emacs reports errors, a test form can crash and not change the main buffer. To work around this, capture both signalled errors and any other messages.

test/emacs: test for functions in notmuch-search-result-format.

2021-09-09T02:01:02Z

Based on the commit message in id:20210221151902.2301690-3-dme@dme.org Add the function notmuch-test-result-flags to test-lib.el to avoid repeating it in 3 T*.sh files.

test: add known broken tests for notuch-{before,after}-tag-hook

2021-05-15T11:31:00Z

These tests illustrate the bug reported in id:87v97ytd2s.fsf@fastmail.fm

emacs: make headings outline-minor-mode compatible

2021-01-13T11:10:27Z

`outline-minor-mode' treats comments that begin with three or more semicolons as headings. That makes it very convenient to navigate code and to show/hide parts of a file. Elips libraries typically have four top-level sections, e.g.: ;;; notmuch.el --- run notmuch within emacs... ;;; Commentary:... ;;; Code:... ;;; notmuch.el ends here In this package many libraries lack a "Commentary:" section, which is not optimal but okay for most libraries, except major entry points. Depending on how one chooses to look at it, the "... ends here" line is not really a heading that begins a section, because it should never have a "section" body (after all it marks eof). If the file is rather short, then I left "Code:" as the only section that contains code. Otherwise I split the file into multiple sibling sections. The "Code:" section continues to contain `require' and `declare-function' forms and other such "front matter". If and only if I have split the code into multiple sections anyway, then I also added an additional section named just "_" before the `provide' form and shortly before the "...end here" line. This section could also be called "Back matter", but I feel it would be distracting to be that explicit about it. (The IMO unnecessary but unfortunately still obligatory "... ends here" line is already distracting enough as far as I am concerned.) Before this commit some libraries already uses section headings, some of them consistently. When a library already had some headings, then this commit often sticks to that style, even at the cost inconsistent styling across all libraries. A very limited number of variable and function definitions have to be moved around because they would otherwise end up in sections they do not belong into. Sections, including but not limited to their heading, can and should be further improved in the future.

emacs: Do not abuse advice to monkey patch while testing

2020-08-10T00:17:06Z

Use `cl-letf*' instead.
