I care a lot about being able to automatically check _any_ property about my
|
2022-06-15 06:47:49 +01:00
|
|
|
program before it ever runs. However, some things don't have tests yet, either
|
|
|
|
because I don't know how to test them or because I've been lazy. I'll at least
|
|
|
|
record those here.

* How the screen looks. Our tests use a level of indirection to check text and
|
|
|
|
graphics printed to screen, but not the precise pixels they translate to.
|
|
|
|
- where exactly the cursor is drawn to highlight a given character

|
|
|
- analogously, how a shape precisely looks as you draw it

### Other compromises

|
|
|
|
Lua is dynamically typed. Tests can't patch over lack of type-checking.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* All strings are UTF-8. Bytes within them are not characters. I try to label
|
2022-06-20 16:24:56 +01:00
|
|
|
byte offsets with the suffix `_offset`, and character positions as `_pos`.
|
|
|
|
For example, `string.sub` should never use a `_pos` to substring, only an
|
|
|
|
`_offset`.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Some ADT/interface support would be helpful in keeping per-line state in
|
|
|
|
sync. Any change to line data should clear line `fragments` and
|
|
|
|
`screen_line_starting_pos`.

|
|
|
* Some inputs get processed in love.textinput and some in love.keypressed.
|
|
|
|
Several bugs have arisen due to destructive interference between the two for
|
|
|
|
some key chord. I wish I could guarantee that the two sets are disjoint. But
|
|
|
|
perhaps I'm not thinking about this right.

|
|
|
* Like any high-level language, it's easy to accidentally alias two non-scalar
|
|
|
|
variables. I wish there was a way to require copy when assigning.

|
|
|
* My test harness automatically runs `test_*` methods -- but only at the
|
|
|
|
top-level. I wish there was a way to raise warnings if someone defines such
|
|
|
|
a function inside a dict somewhere.
