Subject: [HACK] t/test-lib.sh HACK: Add -s/--show-hack to test suite.
Message-ID: <1215375751-30853-1-git-send-email-s-beyer@gmx.net>

This option realizes a stupid hack that tries to run the test
cases line by line (separated by &&).
Furthermore it shows the line it is testing.
With that information it is easier to find the reason
why a test fails.

This hack works as long as there are no multi-line
for/while/subshell/... in the test cases.

Note, that the -s option should only be used if a test case failed.
It is slow and error-prone.

Hi,

I wrote that before I started to make the sequencer prototype and
then I used this hack more than expected ;-)
Today I cherry-picked this commit into another branch and then
I thought this could be useful for others, too.
(Explicitly not for inclusion!)

So how to use it?
When running a test case in t/, add the -s option and then it shows
something like this:

--snip--[...]

-------
Testing:
        ! test -d "$SEQDIR"

-------
Testing:
        session_ok

* FAIL 3: "pick", "squash", "ref" from stdin

                next_session squashCE &&
                valgrind git sequencer <todotest1 &&
                ! test -d "$SEQDIR" &&
                session_ok &&
                test -f file2 &&
                test -f file3 &&
                test $(git rev-parse CE) = $(git rev-parse HEAD) &&
                test $(git rev-parse I) = $(git rev-parse HEAD^)
--snap--

Because of the "Testing:" lines you can explicitly see where it failed.

Regards,
  Stephan
