+-- This module contains the Screen class, a complete Nvim UI implementation
+-- designed for functional testing (verifying screen state, in particular).
--
--- The screen class exposes a single assertion method, "Screen:expect". This
--- method takes a string representing the expected screen state and an optional
--- set of attribute identifiers for checking highlighted characters(more on
--- this later).
---
--- The string passed to "expect" will be processed according to these rules:
---
--- - Each line of the string represents and is matched individually against
--- a screen row.
--- - The entire string is stripped of common indentation
--- - Expected screen rows are stripped of the last character. The last
--- character should be used to write pipes(|) that make clear where the
--- screen ends
--- - The last line is stripped, so the string must have (row count + 1)
--- lines.
+-- Screen:expect() takes a string representing the expected screen state and an
+-- optional set of attribute identifiers for checking highlighted characters.

-- Example usage:
--
-- local screen = Screen.new(25, 10)
--- -- attach the screen to the current Nvim instance
+-- -- Attach the screen to the current Nvim instance.

--- Since screen updates are received asynchronously, "expect" is actually

--- If the second argument is passed to "expect", the screen rows will be
--- transformed before being matched against the string lines. The
--- transformation rule is simple: Each substring "S" composed with characters
--- having the exact same set of attributes will be substituted by "{K:S}",
--- where K is a key associated the attribute set via the second argument of
--- "expect".
--- If a transformation table is present, unexpected attribute sets in the final
--- state is considered an error. To make testing simpler, a list of attribute
--- sets that should be ignored can be passed as a third argument. Alternatively,
--- this third argument can be "true" to indicate that all unexpected attribute
--- sets should be ignored.
---
--- To illustrate how this works, let's say that in the above example we wanted
--- to assert that the "-- INSERT --" string is highlighted with the bold
--- attribute(which normally is), here's how the call to "expect" should look
--- like:

-- [2] = {reverse = true}
-- })
-- screen:set_default_attr_ignore( {{}, {bold=true, foreground=NonText}} )
--- These can be overridden for a specific expect expression, by passing
--- different sets as parameters.

--- To help writing screen tests, there is a utility function
--- "screen:snapshot_util()", that can be placed in a test file at any point an
--- "expect(...)" should be. It will wait a short amount of time and then dump
--- the current state of the screen, in the form of an "expect(..)" expression
--- that would match it exactly. "snapshot_util" optionally also take the
--- transformation and ignore set as parameters, like expect, or uses the default
--- set. It will generate a larger attribute transformation set, if needed.
--- To generate a text-only test without highlight checks,
--- use `screen:snapshot_util({},true)`
+-- To help write screen tests, see screen:snapshot_util().
