It is customary to call the files 'expect' and 'actual'. Furthermore,
swap the order so that in case of a failure the diff shows how the
actual text was changed from the expected text:
test_cmp status.expect.2 status.actual.2
So, is naming the files status.expect.2 instead of just
expect/actual ok or not?
Unless there is a compelling reason not to, just use expect/actual,
without status. or .number. When debugging, people pass the
-i (and often -v) to the script which would stop at the first
breakage. If they can inspect the result in actual, that is far
more pleasant than having to know that it is status.actual.43 they
have to inspect while ignoring clutters in status.actual.{1-42} that
have nothing to do with the breakage they are dealing with.
Ok, no problem, will change that. The only thing, I saw this in other
tests, so decided to use it too. Those tests use test_mighf_fail rm
might_fail and must_fail are totally different beasts.
must_fail is about controlled failure exit (i.e. no segfaulting
allowed) and we avoid using it on non-git things.
When you run clean-up commands without knowing if there is anythning
to clean-up, e.g. you may or may not have successfully created a
junk file and you want to make sure that file does not exist. It
happens that rm junk has a convenient option -f to make it not
barf upon missing junk, so you can do so with rm -f junk instead
of saying test_might_fail rm junk, but might_fail is designed to
be useful for commands that do not have such a convenient option.
