This is a convenience module in order to have less import noise. It
re-exports the following:
a) Commonly used modules in full (Data.Foldable, Data.Applicative, and
so on); though only those that play nicely with each other, so that
XMonad.Prelude can be imported unqualified without any problems.
This prevents things like `Prelude.(.)` and `Control.Category.(.)`
fighting with each other.
b) Helper functions that don't necessarily fit in any other module;
e.g., the often used abbreviation `fi = fromIntegral`.
My main motivation here is that I'd like to add some unit tests (as
opposed to testing everything using QuickCheck properties), but there
are other benefits: it's now easier to run a subset of tests -- the
command-line interface is more powerful.
Also, rename the test-suite to "tests" as it's no longer limited to
properties.
Verify that rotateSome behaves as expected and never fails to pattern
match.
In order to run these tests, I ran a custom script:
scripts/run-tests.sh tests/RotateSome.hs
where the script contained the following:
set -eu
toplevel=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)
XMONAD="${XMONAD:-$toplevel/../xmonad}"
main=$(realpath -e "$1")
instances_target="$XMONAD/tests/Instances.hs"
instances_symlink="$toplevel/tests/Instances.hs"
properties_target="$XMONAD/tests/Properties"
properties_symlink="$toplevel/tests/Properties"
utils_target="$XMONAD/tests/Utils.hs"
utils_symlink="$toplevel/tests/Utils.hs"
trap "
rm '$instances_symlink' '$utils_symlink' '$properties_symlink' || true
" EXIT INT QUIT TERM
ln -s "$instances_target" "$instances_symlink"
ln -s "$properties_target" "$properties_symlink"
ln -s "$utils_target" "$utils_symlink"
runghc -DTESTING \
-i"$toplevel" \
-i"$toplevel/tests" \
"$main"
Now the number of runs each can be set, and the failures and successes are
summarized in the same way as the core Properties.hs. There is some duplicated
code which could be avoided by modifying Properties.hs.
