This harness function is not necessary in the majority of cases in which
it is used. Remove its usage to simplify tests and decrease the amount
of domain-specific knowledge necessary to contribute to the test suite.
Persist the harness function itself for use by future tests for ES2015
modules (such a helper is necessary for tests that are interpreted as
module code).
The runtime semantics of this statement are host-defined and therefore
untestable, but the statement's affect on the formal grammar should be
consistent across all implementations.
- Prefix file names to explicitly describe the "head" position
- Remove statement name suffix as this information is reflected by each
file's location within the file hierarchy
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.
The ES2016 draft further refines the completion values for `if` and
`with` statements. Two tests must be removed outright because the
completion value in those cases is no longer accessible from the
runtime.
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.
Although the `for..in` statement allows Expressions to define the
iterator, only an AssignmentExpression may occupy this position in the
`for..of` statement.
This change set includes tests for most invocations of the
SetFunctionName abstract operation in the ES2015 specification.
Practical testing considerations preclude the introduction of tests for
certain invocations:
- The project is still vetting methods to sustainably test the semantics
of the Destructuring Binding pattern across all valid productions.
- 13.3.3.6 Runtime Semantics: IteratorBindingInitialization
- 13.3.3.7 Runtime Semantics: KeyedBindingInitialization
- Without a loader, there is no way to access a function object declared
in an ExportDeclaration, so `name` assignment cannot be tested in
these cases
- 14.1.19 Runtime Semantics: InstantiateFunctionObject
- 14.4.12 Runtime Semantics: InstantiateFunctionObject
- 14.5.15 Runtime Semantics: BindingClassDeclarationEvaluation
- 15.2.3.11 Runtime Semantics: Evaluation
- Add missing 'negative: ReferenceError' in S7.9_A5.7_T1
- Remove stale 'negative: ReferenceError' in block-local-closure-get-before-initialization
- Remove all tail-call expressions in test/built-ins/Function
- And update code in test/built-ins/Function to simply use 'f()' instead of 'var r = f(); return r'
Fixes#383
The `negative` frontmatter tag expresses an expectation for the behavior
of the test file as a whole. The `assert.throws` helper function offers
more fine-grained control over expectations because it may be applied to
specific statements and expressions. This makes it preferable in cases
where it may be used (i.e. when the test body does not describe a syntax
error or early error).
Re-implement assertions for errors to use the `assert.throws` helper
function wherever possible.
The `test/language/class/` directory contains a small subset of
Test262's tests for ES2015 classes. The majority of tests for classes
are organized within `test/language/statements/class/`.
- Move the tests that rely on the ClassDeclaration syntactic form from
`test/language/class/` to `test/language/statements/class/`.
- Move the test that relies on the ClassExpression syntactic form from
`test/language/class/` to `test/language/expressions/class/`.
- Re-organize existing tests for identifiers
Name files according to their content (not their ES5 ID). Move tests
for IdentifierName and LabelIdentifier to more appropriate directories.
- Simplify and correct tests
Instead of asserting successful runtime evaluation using `eval`, rely
on the test runner's ability to detect syntax errors. Update the test
bodies to test the grammar referenced by their ES5 ID and
description--the IdentifierStart pattern.
- Use `negative` frontmatter to assert SyntaxErrors
- Remove redundant tests
- Use `assert.equal` helper function
- Add equivalent tests for literal unicode chars
- Add tests for variable-length unicode escape
The `test/language/generators/` directory contained a single file that
concerned generators derived both from syntactic form and from a
built-in function.
Refactor this test into two files and place each in the appropriate
directory.
Some tests specifically concern the application of the `use strict`
directive as it appears in JavaScript source code. These tests should
*not* be run with the `onlyStrict` flag because relying on the test
runner to enable strict mode makes the semantics of the source code
irrelevant. Update these tests to use the `noStrict` flag.
Other tests concern language semantics that are only valid in strict
mode, but the mechanism for enabling strictness is inconseqential.
Update these tests to use the `onlyStrict` flag and remove any redundant
`use strict` directive prologues contained within.
Still other tests are valid both within and outside of strict mode.
In keeping with the majority of other tests, do not specify any
restrictions on the environments in which these tests may be run.
