Early errors may result from parsing the source text of a test file, but
they may also result from parsing some other source text as referenced
through the ES2015 module syntax. The latter form of early error is not
necessarily detectable by ECMAScript parsers, however. Because of this,
the label "early" is not sufficiently precise for all Test262 consumers
to correctly interpret all tests.
Update the "phase" name of "early" to "parse" for all those negative
tests that describe errors resulting from parsing of the file's source
text directly. A forthcoming commit will update the remaining tests to
use a "phase" name that is more specific to module resolution.
Authored via the following command:
$ find test -type f -print0 | \
xargs -0 sed \
-i 's/^\(\s*\)negative:\s*SyntaxError\s*$/\1negative:\n\1 phase: early\n\1 type: SyntaxError/g'
Ensure that early errors restricting labelled function declarations
within WithStatement and IfStatement are honored. Rename existing tests
to match the specification's spelling.
The harness file `Test262Error.js` has not contained executable code since it
was introduced in this project [1]. The definition of the `Test262Error`
function has consistently been located in the `sta.js` harness file which test
runners are expected to inject into the test environment.
Remove the file and all references to it.

ECMAScript 2015 introduced tail call optimization for function calls
occuring in a number of positions in the grammar. Assert expected
behavior by triggering a large (but configurable) number of recursive
function calls in these positions. Compliant runtimes will execute such
programs without error; non-compliant runtimes are expected to fail
these tests by throwing an error or crashing when system resources are
exhausted.
In order to facilitate proper tail calls, ES2015 modified the completion
value of a number of statements.
These tests use `eval` to verify the new values.
This change adds 'var' declarations for global variables to allow the tests to run in strict mode (see issue #35).
Extra care was taken to ensure the changes do not alter the test behavior, for example when implicit creation of global variables are part of the test.
Note: The change does not fix all strict mode errors due to missing 'var' declarations.
