Subject: Test syntax documentation in B01cd is wrong?
Date: Sun, 22 Nov 2015 14:05:33 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <151122140533.ZM19350@torch.brasslantern.com> (raw)
The comment says:
# The first line (only) of a '>' and '?' chunk may be preceded by a '*',
# so the line starts '*>' or '*?'. This signifies that all lines in the
# chunk (not just the one with the '*' in front) in the actual output
# are pattern matched against the corresponding lines in the test
# output.
But in fact it appears you have to start EVERY line that needs to be
pattern matched with "*>" or "*?" -- see, for example, in A02alias:
0:Aliasing reserved tokens
>begin
>end
*>*5*{ begin
*>*6*{end
Not only is that not *> on the first line, but there are two lines with
the leading splat. Similarly in B06fc.
