This lacks the tmux-256color terminfo entry, leading to spurious
warnings like
warning: Could not set up terminal. <= no check matches
warning: TERM environment variable set to \'tmux-256color\'. <= no check matches
warning: Check that this terminal type is supported on this system. <= no check matches
warning: Using fallback terminal type \'ansi\'. <= no check matches
Prior to this change, tmux based tests would call 'isolated-tmux' which would
initialize tmux on first call, an admitted "evil hack." Switch to requiring
an explicit call to 'isolated-tmux-start' which then defines 'isolated-tmux'
and other functions. Add some loop-until-prompt logic into
'isolated-tmux-start'. This improves reliability of the tmux tests on systems
under load; at least it makes the tests pass in the background on my Mac.
Remove the '$sleep' variable, to be replaced with 'tmux-sleep'.
This was long overdue since the setup logic is much more complex than
the actual tests.
tmux-prompt.fish had extra logic to protect against XDG_CONFIG_HOME
with leading double double-dot. I believe this is no longer necessary
with the new test driver.
We still use our own temp dir because we want to be able to run this
independently of the test driver, This can be useful for debugging
tests. For example we can insert a "$tmux attach" command in a test,
and then run
build/fish -C 'source tests/test_functions/isolated-tmux.fish' tests/checks/tmux-bind.fish
This allows to inspect the state of the test and debug interactively.
Attaching to the terminal doesn't work when running inside littlecheck
because littlecheck consumes our output and doesn't give us a terminal.
(Maybe there's an easy way to fix that?)
Fixes some regressions from 35ca42413 ("Simplify some parse_util functions").
The tmux tests are not beautiful but I find them easy to write.
Probably a pexpect test would also be enough here?
