test: spawn_wait() starts a non-RPC Nvim process

2025-01-03T18:24:04+00:00

Problem:
Can't use `n.clear()` to test non-RPC `nvim` invocations. So tests end
up creating ad-hoc wrappers around `system()` or `jobstart()`.

Solution:
- Introduce `n.spawn_wait()`
- TODO (followup PR): Rename `n.spawn()` and `n.spawn_wait()`.
  It's misleading that `n.spawn()` returns a RPC session...

test: add type annotations

test: use integers for API Buffer/Window/Tabpage EXT types

test: use vim.mpack and vim.uv directly

build: enable lintlua for test/unit/ dir #26396

2023-12-04T22:32:39+00:00

Problem:
Not all Lua code is checked by stylua. Automating code-style is an
important mechanism for reducing time spent on accidental
(non-essential) complexity.

Solution:
- Enable lintlua for `test/unit/` directory.
- TODO: only `test/functional/` remains unchecked.

refactor(tests): move lua-client into core and use it for functionaltests

2023-02-10T19:19:04+00:00

Eliminates lua-client and non-static libluv as test time dependencies

Note: the API for a public lua-client is not yet finished.
The interface needs to be adjusted to work in the embedded loop
of a nvim instance (to use it to talk between instances)
