Uniformly and exhaustively test the generic aspects of the static- and
instance Promise methods, including:
- function `length` properties
- function `name` properties
- method property descriptors
Some tests involving the directive prologue are invalidated by source
text transformations that insert executable code in the beginning of the
script. Implement a `raw` flag that allows these tests to opt-out of
this transformation. Update the relevant tests to use this flag (and
remove references to globals only available when code is injected).
Update the Python runner accordingly:
- Do not run tests marked as "raw" in strict mode
- Reject invalid test configurations
Update the browser runner accordingly:
- Do not modify the script body of tests marked as "raw"
The "monkeyYaml" parser is intended to serve as a lightweight fallback
to Python's standard YAML parser in contexts where the latter is not
available. Any intentionally-simplified implementation will necessarily
exhibit non-standard behavior for different input, so not all input
accepted by the standard parser will be accepted by "monkeyYaml". If
loaded exclusively in fallback situations, these edge cases can only be
identified (and debugged) in the environments that require the fallback.
This has allowed developers to unknowingly author tests that cause
errors.
Update the test runner to use "monkeyYaml" in all cases, ensuring more
consistent behavior across contexts and precluding this class of
regression.
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 JavaScript source files are only relevant in the context of the
Test262 website. They should not be explicitly included by individual
tests, so their presence in the `harness/` directory alongside "include"
files is misleading.
Move the scripts to a location within the `website/` directory to
better-reflect their intended use. Update the relevant HTML templates
with the new locations.
Although test files once expressed dependencies on external files using
a global `$INCLUDE` function, that pattern was removed in favor of
declarative meta-data [1].
Remove the associated logic from the Python runner and the browser.
[1] See commit d4354d14d5.
The `fnExists` function defines a generic way to determine if any number
of values are function instances. Because it is only used by a single
test, the additional complexity required by the generalized code (and
the organizational drawbacks to maintaining another "include" file) are
not justified. Remove the file and update the test to assert the
function's existence directly.
The `environment.js` file has been empty since its initial introduction
to this project [1]. It has no effect on any of the contexts in which it
is currently referenced, so it may be safely removed.
