According to sec-identifiers-static-semantics-assignmenttargettype,
`AssignmentTargetType` of `arguments` and `eval` in non-strict mode code is
`simple`.
sec-update-expressions-static-semantics-early-errors mandates early errors for
`UpdateExpression` if `AssignmentTargetType` is `invalid` or `strict`.
The tests for the parsing of postfix increment, postfix decrement,
prefix increment, and prefix decrement were expressed using `eval`.
This made the tests more complex than necessary and also prevented the
tests from providing value to ECMAScript parsers.
Remove the use of `eval` and instead express the expectations with
literal source text.
Additionally removed the `arrow-function` feature for
test/language/eval-code/direct/new.target-fn.js as it is not testing
arrow-functions, but they are mentioned in the preamble.
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.
This re-factors some existing Sputnik tests to be more targeted and to use a
pattern that can be generalized to other forms. We could test these all day,
but I've limited myself to forms introduced in ES2015, specifically
YieldExpression and new.target. Note that SpiderMonkey incorrectly throws a
SyntaxError for these.
I thoughtlessly wrote ReferenceError tests for yield = 1 until I realized
that such productions are not actually recognized by the grammar, so the early
errors do not apply. Instead, I've added a negative syntax test for that case.
* Refactor test for valid cover
* Add tests for ValidSimpleAssignmentTarget
Ensure that constructs introduced in ES2015 are disallowed as assignment
targets, with or without a "cover" grammar.
* Add test for grammar precedence of YieldExpression
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).
In ECMAScript 5, assignment to a non-reference value throws a runtime
ReferenceError. ECMAscript 6 specifies an early ReferenceError in these
cases. Tests for this behavior have been authored to pass in both cases.
Simplify these tests to describe and assert the early error.
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.
The increment/decrement operator evaluates its operand expression once. When
the operand expression is a property accessor, RequireObjectCoercible
and ToPropertyKey are called on the property accessor in the correct order.
