Currently paying the price of months of non-diligent git usage. Here's what has changed. - Theming support in Gvcci and wpgtk - Dropping support for i3 - Supporting EXWM - Many Elisp modules - Collapsed redundant directories in ./configs

;;; do.el --- Small assertion library for Elisp -*- lexical-binding: t -*-
|
|
;; Author: William Carroll <wpcarro@gmail.com>
|
|
|
|
;;; Commentary:
|
|
;; Assertion library inspired by Elixir's core testing library.
|
|
;;
|
|
;; The goal here is to create this module without relying on other non-core
|
|
;; Elisp libraries. I will attempt to do this as long as I'm not sacrificing
|
|
;; the readability of this code nor the ease at which it can be written.
|
|
;;
|
|
;; A note on testing:
|
|
;; Another goal with this library is to blur the line between testing code and
|
|
;; runtime code. Developers should ideally be using `do/assert' and `do/refute'
|
|
;; in their library code. Because of this, I'm avoiding referring
|
|
;; to the notion of testing in the names of these functions.
|
|
;;
|
|
;; Hypothesis:
|
|
;; The lower the friction is for writing tests, the more likely people will
|
|
;; write tests.
|
|
|
|
;; TODO: Support better error messages, which might include information about
|
|
;; line numbers in source code where the assertion failed.
|
|
|
|
;; TODO: Consider offering the ability to have some of these functions compile
|
|
;; to nothing at runtime if developers want to use them while developing without
|
|
;; incurring the costs at runtime.
|
|
|
|
;; TODO: Consider using this module instead of prelude.el. Right now, I'm
|
|
;; having troubling preferring one to the other. The benefit of this module is
|
|
;; that it's independent of prelude, but that might also be a downside, since
|
|
;; the messaging that asserting should be a critical part of any core library
|
|
;; like prelude.
