nvim-lspconfig-test

NOTE: this repo is currently under review before upstreaming to nvim-lua -- please wait until then to contribute!

Tests for configurations implemented in neovim/nvim-lspconfig.

This repo's tests are run on a nightly basis, and config-specific issues are created/closed automatically when tests fail/pass.

Why test?

Much like neovim/nvim-lspconfig, this repo is community-driven. We highly recommend adding tests for your language server to it! Doing so will:

1. Protect your config from changes to neovim/nvim-lspconfig, as we will run these tests to make sure we don't break anything
2. Because of the above, make fixes/refactoring easier on our end
3. Let you know automatically when/if your language server (or something else) changes which breaks compatability with nvim

along with all of the other benefits of having well-tested code!

Adding tests

1. In .github/workflows/default.yml, add the name of your config to jobs.default.strategy.matrix.config.
2. Create a folder with your language server's name in the tests/ directory.
3. Add the following files to it:

• issue_body: the body of the issue that will be automatically created if your tests fail. Feel free to @ yourself and other maintainers here.
• setup.sh: code to set up your language server on a new machine. This should "formalize" the steps described in CONFIG.md for your language server. See tests/leanls/setup.sh for an example.
• test.sh: code that actually runs your tests. This should exit 0 iff all of your tests succeed. See tests/leanls/test.sh for an example. As done there, we recommend using nvim-lua/plenary.nvim's busted-style testing to write these tests (see tests/leanls/tests/lsp_spec.lua), initializing with the given minimal_init.lua. Some helper functions are provided in nvim-lspconfig-test/lua/test/helpers.lua (available to your tests via require'test.helpers').

Running locally

Assuming all of your language server's necessary software is installed, just do:

TEST=<test_name> make test

where <test_name> is the name of your config.

Contributing

Feel free to make a PR title-prefixed with [WIP] as soon as you start working on your tests. Remove the [WIP] when you're ready for review.

Fixing problems

An issue titled for your language server will automatically be created if your tests fail on a run. Do not close these issues manually! They will be automatically closed on a subsequent run where your tests pass.
