Subject: [GSoC][PATCH v3] t2000: modernise overall structure
Date: Sat, 28 Mar 2026 00:40:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260327234019.95591-1-zakariyahali100@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260326192603.23961-1-zakariyahali100@gmail.com>
This test script that dates back to 2005 certainly shows its age and
both its style and the way the tests are laid out do not match the
modern standard.
* Executables that prepare the data used to test the command should
be inside the test_expect_success block in modern tests.
* In modern tests, running a command that is being tested, making
sure it succeeds, and inspecting other side effects that are
expected, are all done in a single test_expect_success block.
* A test_expect_success block in modern tests are laid out as
test_expect_success 'title of the test' '
body of the test &&
...
body of the test
'
not as
test_expect_success \
'title of the test' \
'body of the test &&
...
body of the test'
which is in a prehistoric style.
* In modern tests, each &&-chained statement in the body of the
test_expect_success block are indented with a horizontal tab,
unlike prehistoric style that used 4-space indent.
