For littlecheck/pexpect this just unconditionally enables color.
I have no idea what happens if you run cmake outside of a terminal
, but the worst that can happen is that *errors* have color
escapes in them.
If someone figures out how to get cmake to tell us if it's running in
a terminal, we can add a check.
Ensure that the increment= param is set via keyword, not via positional arg.
This mistake was masking a bug where the "^a b c" match was not being tested,
because it was being set as the value for increment!
This switches the 'increment' param from "after" to "before." Instead
of expect_prompt saying if the next prompt will be incremented, each
call site says if it should have been incremented sinec the last prompt.
The result is just the *index* of the pattern that matched. But since
we never pass a *list* it's just always 0.
spawn.match is the MatchObject that produced the match, so it can be
used to post-process the matched output, e.g.
```python
m = expect_re('\d+')
m.group() # is now the matched number
```
Prior to this change, if we saw more than one repaint readline command in
a row, we would try to ignore the second one. However this was never the
right thing to do since sometimes we really do need to repaint twice in a
row (e.g. the user hits Ctrl+L twice). Previously we were saved by the
buginess of this mechanism but with the repainting refactoring we see
missing redraws.
Remove the coalescing logic and add a test. Fixes#7280.
I really kinda hate how insistent clang-format is to have line
breaks *IFF THE LINE IS TOO LONG*.
Like... lemme just add a break if it looks better, will you?
But it is the style at this time, so we shall tie an onion to our
belt.
This was sometimes slightly annoying in porting.
5 is enough most of the time, 10 should be enough basically always,
without being too annoying if you don't need it.
Make it easier to use pexpect and to understand its error messages.
Switch to a style in tests using bound methods, which makes them
less noisy to write.
This adds a new interactive test framework based on Python's pexpect. This
is intended to supplant the TCL expect-based tests.
New tests go in `tests/pexpects/`. As a proof-of-concept, the
pipeline.expect test and the (gnarly) bind.expect test are ported to the
new framework.
