Now, before starting a test with 'TestBegin' in any *-in.txt file
we can create ne shortcuts used by this test.
Defining a shortcut:
UseShortcut "<shortcut>" "<function>"
Actually adding the new shortcuts to be used by the next lyx-session:
PrepareShortcuts
Use example is found in findadv-combined-in.txt
The UseShortcut-entries will be traslated into '\bind "<shortcut>" "<function>"'
and with the PrepareShortcuts-entry added to the active use file 'user.bind'
Function keys are sent to xvkbd as e.g. \[F15], so we should
not split a sequence like "\C\[F15]" into two text pieces.
(Do it like other keys not having a digit in their name (e.g. \[Return]) )
The controls are described in hello-world-in.txt as
Cr: not expected regex search pattern before next expected match
Cp: not expected search pattern before next expected match
See also findadv-re-04-in.txt for an example
In this test-case, searching for case sensitive and format considering
search is failing.
This test started failing after 8bf3d7bb. I did not look deeply into
why, because the corresponding de and es tests were already
inverted, and because in general we do not expect texF tests to work
well.
The controls are described in hello-world-in.txt as
CO: for control file open for write
CN: control notice
CP: simple search pattern
CR: regex search pattern
CC: close control file
The control-file will be used at the end of test by searchPatterns.pl
Suppose, we want to test a key sequence which should produce
logs in defined sequence. ATM, we use pcregrep to see, if
a pattern occurs in the log-file. This is OK, if using only single
tests with only one message to care about.
But it is not OK for combined tests.
As an example, the file 'findadv-combine-in.txt' is combining
tests findadv-re-01-in.txt, findadv-re-02-in.txt and findadv-re-03-in.txt.
This test runns here about 25 seconds, while the time for the other three
is about 144 secs.
(Most time is with starting/stopping lyx)
Often the relevant entry (e.g. /proc/xxxx/status) exists,
but is empty. This led to many tests fail, mostly at
the first tests after the start of the OS.
The culprit in keytest is the possibility to lose some keystrokes.
The idead here is that the keystokes are cached by QT until some
control character is entered forcing e.g. new dialog.
So, splitting input lines at these characters should be enough
to ensure that the next chars are not lost.
iconv fails, if a nomenclature inset contains an uncodable character
This led to failure of the indonesian UserGuide in the attic.
Fix it there and add a minimal, specific test sample instead.
1.) Don't modify the line as it happened at start of sendKeystringLocal()
2.) Split lines on each keysym (e.g. \[Return])
3.) Beatify the debug output of the sent text
This makes the wrapper working smoothly even for more complicated
input lines.
Also we do not need the window- parameter in call to xvkbd.
Still, there _is_ something fishy. At first run it can happen that
some keytest fail. But not reproducible at subsequent calls.
It feels like QT would cache some data and therefore lyx reacts
later faster.
This work is a result of collaboration with Tommaso Cucinotta.
Changes are:
1.) make it python3 compatible
2.) rewritten the lyx_status() routine
3.) routines lyx_sleeping(), lyx_zombie(), lyx_dead() now depend on lyx_status()
4.) dont send keystring "\Afn" at start as it is language dependent
5.) handling of TestEnd uses now lyx-commands to stop the lyx-session.
Use 'kill -9' only if unsuccessful
- from specific dependency on wish8.5, to just wish
- from checking the 2nd line of /proc/*/status, to grep-ing on sleeping (old system was failing on newer kernels)
- mode debugging and python output during tests
