We are trying to phase out the trigger-event way
of telling modules to do something.
In this case we not only remove the indirection
of the event handler, but we also get to remove
`compose_fade` from the `ui_init` startup sequence.
This also has us update `compose_fade` outside
the loop, although that's only a theoretical
improvement, since I don't think `peer_add` events
every actually include multiple streams.
To make the dispatch tests a little flatter, I
added a one-line change to zjsunit to add
`make_stub` to `global`.
To manually test:
* have Aaron reply to Denmark (keep compose box open)
* have Iago add Hamlet to Denmark
* have Hamlet unsubscribe
Explicitly stubbing i18n in 48 different files
is mostly busy work at this point, and it doesn't
provide much signal, since often it's invoked
only to satisfy transitive dependencies.
Let's say you have module hello.js like so:
// hello.js
const hello_world = i18n.t('Hello world');
exports.get_greeting = () => hello_world;
And then two modules like this:
// apple.js
const hello = require('hello');
exports.foo = () => {
show_greeting(hello.get_greeting());
};
// banana.js
const hello = require('hello');
exports.foo = () => {
display_greeting(hello.get_greeting());
};
The test for apple.js could look like this,
and it won't crash due to the stub:
set_global('i18n', {t: () => {}});
zrequire('hello');
zrequire('apple');
Now let's say your write this broken version
of a test for banana.js:
zrequire('hello');
zrequire('banana');
If you run `./tools/test-js-with-node`, the
"banana" test will pass, because while it
does require "hello", it won't actually
*execute* the code that happens at require
time for "hello", because it's already in
the cache. Here is the code that gets
skipped:
const hello_world = i18n.t('Hello world');
But then if you try to run the banana test
individually, the above line of code will
cause the test to crash. And it will crash
even before you actually try to test the
meaningful code here:
exports.foo = () => {
display_greeting(hello.get_greeting());
};
This commit fixes this leak scenario by just
aggressively clearing out things from the
require cache.
This slows tests down by about 10%, which I think
is worth the extra safety here.
We now require the actual tests to explicitly
to zrequire Dict, rather than magically adding this.
In one case, the use of Dict was clearly just for
the test (not the app), so I converted that an ordinary
JS object (see timerender.js).
This commit was originally automatically generated using `tools/lint
--only=eslint --fix`. It was then modified by tabbott to contain only
changes to a set of files that are unlikely to result in significant
merge conflicts with any open pull request, excluding about 20 files.
His plan is to merge the remaining changes with more precise care,
potentially involving merging parts of conflicting pull requests
before running the `eslint --fix` operation.

This adds the general machinery required, and sets it up for the file
`typing_status.js` as a first use case.

It seems like the de facto standard ES polyfill library these days,
and we already depend on it through simplebar.

The minimal syntactic sugar it might provide isn’t worth the
unexpected side effects (including side effects on third party
modules).
For now, we allow zrequire to emulate the previous syntax in the Node
test suite, even though stealing part of the NPM namespace is
confusing.

This is preparation for our migration of our JS pipeline to webpack,
which includes as part of the process a hack of exporting globals via
the window object.
We have less urgency to test all templates now. The
most common error is probably unbalanced tags, and our
python-based template checker catches those problems
pretty well.
It's still possible to create bad templates, of course,
but the node tests have never been super deep at finding
semantic errors.
This run_test helper sets up a convention that allows
us to give really short tracebacks for errors, and
eventually we can have more control over running
individual tests. (The latter goal has some
complications, since we often intentionally leak
setup in tests.)
I don't think anybody ever really used this feature, which I
developed but don't even use myself. It kind of runs counter
to the minimalist approach of the rest of node tests.
I would eventually like to re-think the template tests altogether.
They're slow, and we could solve that somewhat by replacing
jsdon/jquery with an HTML parser library to verify structural
things.
It's also possible that we can just rely on our template linters
to catch the biggest class of errors (malformed tags) and let
code review do the rest.
And it's also possible that we should make a second attempt to
ramp up tooling on making it easy to verify templates, but it
doesn't have to be part of the node tests. If we did that, we
would also potentially use tooling for Python-side templates.
We are phasing out the following in tests:
add_dependencies - this is just kind of a clunky UI
require - normal JS requires cause test leaks
In order to plug require leaks, we are effectively doing what
we always have done inside of add_dependencies, which is to
keep track of which modules we have done `require` on, and
these get cleared between tests.
Now we just use `zrequire` every time we want to pull in real
code to our global namespace.
This allow the webbpack dev server to properly reload JavaScript modules
while running in dev without restarting the server. We need to connect
to webpack-dev-server directly because SockJS doesn't support more than
one connection on the same host/port.
The function with_overrides() uses the logic from the old
run() function in dispatch.js to allow you to call a test
function and override parts of the global namespace only
for the duration of when test_function runs.
- Remove `underscore.js` from `static/third` and fetch it from `npm`.
- Upgrade `underscore.js` to 1.8.3.
- Bump up the `PROVISION_VERSION` to 4.2.
