tests

This directory contains integration tests for the GnoVM. This file aims to provide a brief overview.

GnoVM tests and filetests run in a special context relating to its imports. You can see the additional Gonative functions in gnovm/pkg/test/imports.go. You can see additional standard libraries and standard library functions available in testing in gnovm/tests/stdlibs.

files: GnoVM filetests

The most important directory is files, which contains filetests for the Gno project. These are executed by the TestFiles test in the gnovm/pkg/gnolang directory.

The files/extern directory contains several packages used to test the import system. The packages here are imported with the prefix github.com/gnolang/gno/_test/, exclusively within these filetests.

Tests with the _long suffix are skipped when the -short flag is passed.

These tests are largely derived from Yaegi, licensed under Apache 2.0.

stdlibs: testing standard libraries

These contain standard libraries which are only available in testing, and extensions of them, like std.TestSkipHeights.

other directories

• backup has been here since forever; and somebody should come around and delete it at some point.
• challenges contains code that supposedly doesn't work, but should.
• integ contains some files for integration tests which likely should have been in some testdata directory to begin with. You guessed it, they're here until someone bothers to move them out.
