@ -7,6 +7,9 @@ The tests harness expects the highlighter directory to contain a `test-data`
directory with test data files.
See the [main highlighter](../highlighters/main/test-data) for examples.
Tests should set the following variables:
1.
Each test should define the string `$BUFFER` that is to be highlighted and the
array parameter `$expected_region_highlight`.
The value of that parameter is a list of strings of the form `"$i $j $style"`.
@ -16,11 +19,16 @@ that is, `$i` and `$j` specify a range, 1-indexed, inclusive of both endpoints.
`$style` is a key of `$ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES`.
If `$todo` exists, the test point is marked as TODO (the failure of that test
point will not fail the test), and `$todo` is used as the explanation.
2.
If a test sets `$skip_test` to a non-empty string, the test will be skipped
with the provided string as the reason.
3.
If a test sets `unsorted=1` the order of highlights in `$expected_region_highlight`
need not match the order in `$region_highlight`.
4.
Normally, tests fail if `$expected_region_highlight` and `$region_highlight`
have different numbers of elements. Tests may set `$expected_mismatch` to an
explanation string (like `$todo`) to avoid this and mark the cardinality check
