* Package name : assess-el Version : 0.4 Upstream Author : Phillip Lord <phillip.l...@russet.org.uk> * URL or Web page : https://github.com/phillord/assess * License : GPL-3+ Description : test support functions for Emacs This package provides functions to support ert, the Emacs Regression Test framework. It includes: * a set of predicates for comparing strings, buffers and file contents; * explainer functions for all predicates giving useful output; * macros for creating many temporary buffers at once, and for restoring the buffer list; * methods for testing indentation, by comparison or "round-tripping"; * methods for testing fontification; Assess aims to be a stateless as possible, leaving Emacs unchanged whether the tests succeed or fail, with respect to buffers, open files and so on; this helps to keep tests independent from each other. Violations of this will be considered a bug. Assess aims also to be as noiseless as possible, reducing and suppressing extraneous messages where possible, to leave a clean ert output in batch mode.
