grimar added a comment.
I ended up with the following test case:
**TestHistoryCrash.py:**
"""We crashed when navigated through the history. Check we do not now."""
from __future__ import print_function
import os
import sys
import lldb
from lldbsuite.test.decorators import *
from lldbsuite.test.lldbtest import *
from lldbsuite.test import configuration
from lldbsuite.test import lldbutil
class TestNoCrashForHistoryRecall(TestBase):
mydir = TestBase.compute_mydir(__file__)
# If your test case doesn't stress debug info, the
# set this to true. That way it won't be run once for
# each debug info format.
NO_DEBUG_INFO_TESTCASE = True
def setUp(self):
TestBase.setUp(self)
@expectedFailureAll(
oslist=["windows"],
bugnumber="llvm.org/pr22274: need a pexpect replacement for windows")
def test_history_recall(self):
self.child_prompt = '(lldb) '
self.sample_test()
def sample_test(self):
import pexpect
self.child = pexpect.spawn(
'%s %s' %
(lldbtest_config.lldbExec, self.lldbOption))
child = self.child
child.sendline('print')
child.expect_exact('Enter expressions')
child.sendline('\x1b[A')
child.close()
self.assertEqual(child.exitstatus, 0)
It works, but not in all cases. Problem is that history patch is hardcoded and
history is stored in the home directory (`~/.lldb/lldb-expr-history`):
https://github.com/llvm-mirror/lldb/blob/master/source/Host/common/Editline.cpp#L180
When the history file exists and is empty (has a header, but no history lines),
the test case can trigger the crash successfully.
But if the history file does not yet exist, or if it is not empty, it does not
work (always pass), because does not trigger a line changed.
And in the ideal world on a build bot, I believe for a clean build it should
never exist (though I guess bots are not cleaning the `~/.lldb` folder perhaps).
It is not a good idea to touch or modify files outside the build folder from
the test, so that does not seem what I can change.
And so I am not sure it is worth to add such test, it can help only in some
cases, for a local test runs, for example.
Also, It does not work on windows because all pexpect tests seem ban windows.
Given above I suggest going without a test, perhaps.
