Each diagnostic test consists of a single .kt file containing the code of one or several Kotlin or Java source files. Each diagnostic, be it a warning or an error, is marked in the following way:
<!DIAGNOSTIC_FACTORY_NAME!>element<!>
where DIAGNOSTIC_FACTORY_NAME
is the name of the diagnostic which is usually one of the constants in one of Errors*
classes.
To test not only the presence of the diagnostic but also the arguments which will be rendered to the user, provide string representations of all of them in the parentheses delimited with ;
after the diagnostic name:
return <!TYPE_MISMATCH(String; Nothing)!>"OK"<!>
Note: if you're unsure what text should be added for the parameters, just leave the parentheses empty and the failed test will present the actual values in the assertion message.
Several directives can be added to the beginning of a test file with the following syntax:
// !DIRECTIVE
This directive allows to exclude some irrelevant diagnostics (e.g. unused parameter) from a certain test, or to test only a specific set of diagnostics.
The syntax is
'([ + - ! ] DIAGNOSTIC_FACTORY_NAME | ERROR | WARNING | INFO ) +'
where
+
means ‘include’;
-
means ‘exclude’;
!
means ‘exclude everything but this’.
Directives are applied in the order of appearance, i.e. !FOO +BAR
means include only FOO
and BAR
.
// !DIAGNOSTICS: -WARNING +CAST_NEVER_SUCCEEDS // !DIAGNOSTICS: -UNUSED_EXPRESSION -UNUSED_PARAMETER -UNUSED_VARIABLE
The directive adds the following declarations to the file:
fun <T> checkSubtype(t: T) = t class Inv<T> fun <E> Inv<E>._() {} infix fun <T> T.checkType(f: Inv<T>.() -> Unit) {}
With that, an exact type of an expression can be checked in the following way:
fun test(expr: A) { expr checkType { _<A>() } }
CHECK_TYPE
directive also disables UNDERSCORE_USAGE_WITHOUT_BACKTICKS
diagnostics output.
// !CHECK_TYPE
The directive lets you compose a test consisting of several files in one actual file.
// FILE: A.java /* Java code */ // FILE: B.kt /* Kotlin code */
This directive lets you enable or disable certain language features. Language features are named as enum entries of the class LanguageFeature
. Each feature can be enabled with +
, disabled with -
, or enabled with warning with warn:
.
// !LANGUAGE: -TopLevelSealedInheritance // !LANGUAGE: +TypeAliases -LocalDelegatedProperties // !LANGUAGE: warn:Coroutines
This directive emulates the behavior of the -api-version
command line option, disallowing to use declarations annotated with @SinceKotlin(X)
where X is greater than the specified API version. Note that if this directive is present, the NEWER_VERSION_IN_SINCE_KOTLIN diagnostic is automatically disabled, unless the “!DIAGNOSTICS” directive is present.
// !API_VERSION: 1.0
