Add tests that assert the management of the running execution context's
LexicalEnvironment and VariableEnvironment components, as created by the
following abstract operations:
- NewDeclarativeEnvironment
- NewObjectEnvironment
- NewFunctionEnvironment
Many tests require the use of non-strict direct eval, meaning they may
not be run in strict mode. This does not effect coverage because the
semantics in these cases are not observable from strict mode code.
Some situations require the creation of a binding, but this binding has
no relevance to the test itself. In these cases, use names consisting
solely of the underscore character (`_`).
Avoid the use of Block statements wherever possible, as these trigger
the creation of additional environments which may interfere with the
behavior under test.
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
