One of the values of Unit Testing is Defect Localization. ie. In a well designed unit test suite, tell me which test failed, I will tell you, to within a few lines, where the bug is. However in the presence of setup and teardown failures, we lose that. Ideally we should differentiate between failures that occur during setup and teardown, versus exceptions occurring in the behaviour under test, or assertions on the validity of the result. ie. Failures under setup and teardown are not failures of the behaviour under test. The only thing we can say about the behaviour under test in these cases is, that it “hasn’t been tested”. Hopefully the behaviour that failed during the setup and teardown is explicitly tested elsewhere. ie. We should stop at the first test that fails at a point other than setup and teardown, as this is likely to be the cause, for the cascade of failures in setup and teardown of other tests.

I just tried the plugin and it seems to work very well! Thanks
for the good work.
Thanks.
Have you considered invoking dub instead of dmd if there's a
dub.json/.sdl file? I imagine when people use
"preBuildCommands" to generate code, for example, the linter
might report false positives. Same goes for custom D versions
(e.g. `version(Have_foo) { ... }`).
No I haven't considered using dub. Does dub allow the
processing of a single file from the project without generating
code? Note that you don't want to build the whole project upon
every activation of the linter, because of speed but also
because of errors that do not apply to the file in the current
view.
Not sure about that, would need some investigating. From what I
can tell, dub docs have improved quite a bit in the past year.
There's also the --single feature of dub:
https://code.dlang.org/advanced_usage Such files may not work
correctly with this linter at this time I presume.
I don't see why not?
Sorry, let me rephrase. What I meant is that, with dub, you can
add dependencies (e.g. some http library) and define D versions.
So even tho it's only a single file, the invocation of dmd alone
is not sufficient to understand the code completely. I guess it
would be most useful if I created some test cases and documented
them.
All in all they way this plugin works is a great idea! The
more it knows about the full commandline of the resulting dmd
invocation, the more accurate it is.
If you have a case where it isn't sufficient, I am interested
to see how it can be improved. You can experiment with it as
explained here:
https://forum.dlang.org/post/zugbovfvfviapcjqd...@forum.dlang.org
Haven't experimented with it yet so it's all just speculation so
far. I'm quite interested in a dub linter. As far as I can tell
from a first glance at your plugin code, it doesn't seem too
complicated. I think I will investigate whether dub is suitable
for this endeavor and implement that aspect of the plugin myself.
If I have enough time in the coming days, of course. Will keep
you posted!

If you are looking for a cost effective solution, you may want to consider outsourcing. This article may be pretty informative for you - https://diceus.com/why-you-should-open-outsourcing-centers-in-ukraine-nowadays/ . If there are some functions which your business cannot complete effectively and or professionally, you'll often save money and increase quality by outsourcing. Hope you find it useful!

The speed at which features and bug fixes are being done has picked up recently. We've had 4 releases this month alone. It would be really helpful if there are any Intellij users out there who don't already use our plugin to install it via the plugin repo and try it out (there are 2 D plugins, make sure to install the correct one). We now have error reporting built in to the plugin so that if anything breaks it's easy to inform the team about the problem. There is also support for debugging with GDB (since v1.14 1st Nov). We need to completely overhaul our documentation as some of it is outdated now and there is no mention of the gdb support. If anyone with Java/Kotlin experience wants to get involved with helping squash bugs then we welcome pull requests so please feel free to browse the issues on our github repository and get involved. https://github.com/intellij-dlanguage/intellij-dlanguage If you find the plugin helpful please also rate the plugin: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/8115-d-language hi singingbush i normally use emacs but i wanted to contribute to the community effort and see how the plugin is. i downloaded IDEA CE 2017.2 and i have imported an existing D project. when i want to run the project it lets me choose if i want to use DUB or DMD (that's great) and then i choose DUB and then it warns me about project not having SDK settings. i then went on and set the DMD/bin path as the SDK folder. i also set the DUB path initially but after running, it told me to configure it again. maybe it did not save in the first place. all in all, it was a pleasure. thank you for your efforts :)
