* test.bisect_cmd now exit with code 0 on success, and code 1 on
failure. Before, it was the opposite.
* test.bisect_cmd now runs the test worker process with
-X faulthandler.
* regrtest RunTests: Add create_python_cmd() and bisect_cmd()
methods.
Now all results from worker processes are aggregated and
displayed together as a summary at the end of a regrtest run.
The traditional trace is left in place for use with sequential
in-process test runs but now raises a warning that those
numbers are not precise.
`-T -j` requires `--with-pydebug` as it relies on `-Xpresite=`.
Test case matching patterns specified by options --match, --ignore,
--matchfile and --ignorefile are now tested in the order of
specification, and the last match determines whether the test case be run
or ignored.
On Emscripten and WASI, or if --python command line is used,
libregrtest now writes JSON into stdout, instead of using a name
file.
* Add JsonFileType.STDOUT.
* Remove JsonFileType.FILENAME.
* test.pythoninfo logs environment variables related to
cross-compilation and running Python on Emscripten/WASI.
On Emscripten and WASI platforms, or if --python command line option
is used, libregrtest now uses a filename for the JSON file.
Emscripten and WASI buildbot workers run the main test process with a
different Python (Linux) which spawns Emscripten/WASI processes using
the command specified in --python command line option. Passing a file
descriptor from the parent process to the child process doesn't work
in this case.
* Add JsonFile and JsonFileType classes
* Add RunTests.json_file_use_filename() method.
* Add a test in test_regrtest on the --python command line option.
* test_regrtest: add parallel=False parameter.
* Split long RunWorkers._runtest() function into sub-functions.
Don't spawn more threads than the number of jobs: these worker
threads would never get anything to do.
* Add the number of tests in "Run ... tests in ..." message.
* Add RunTests.get_jobs() method.
* Add plural() function.
* count() uses f-string.
libregrtest now calls random.seed() before running each test file
when -r/--randomize command line option is used. Moreover, it's also
called in worker processes. It should help to make tests more
deterministic. Previously, it was only called once in the main
process before running all test files and it was not called in worker
processes.
* Convert some f-strings to regular strings in test_regrtest when
f-string is not needed.
* Remove unused all_methods variable from test_regrtest.
* Add RunTests members are now mandatory.
libregrtest now uses a separated file descriptor to write test result
as JSON. Previously, if a test wrote debug messages late around the
JSON, the main test process failed to parse JSON.
Rename TestResult.write_json() to TestResult.write_json_into().
worker_process() no longer writes an empty line at the end. There is
no need to separate test process output from the JSON output anymore,
since JSON is now written into a separated file descriptor.
create_worker_process() now always spawn the process with
close_fds=True.
* Rename runtest_mp.py to run_workers.py
* Move exit_timeout() and temp_cwd() context managers from
Regrtest.main() to Regrtest.run_tests(). Actions like --list-tests
or --list-cases don't need these protections.
* Regrtest: remove selected and tests attributes. Pass 'selected' to
list_tests(), list_cases() and run_tests(). display_result() now
expects a TestTuple, instead of TestList.
* Rename setup_tests() to setup_process() and rename setup_support()
to setup_tests().
* Move _adjust_resource_limits() to utils and rename it to
adjust_rlimit_nofile().
* Move replace_stdout() to utils.
* Fix RunTests.verbose type: it's an int.
* Add single.py and result.py files.
* Rename runtest.py to runtests.py.
* Move run_single_test() function and its helper functions to
single.py.
* Move remove_testfn(), abs_module_name() and normalize_test_name()
to utils.py.
* Move setup_support() to setup.py.
* Move type hints like TestName to utils.py.
* Rename runtest.py to runtests.py.
