* test(harness): migrate away from magic globalsJustin M. Keyes2026-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: The magic globals `it`, `describe`, etc., are more trouble than they are worth. - Hooking into `after_each` requires `getfenv()` hacks. - They confuse luals/emmylua, because the top-level `.luarc.json` isn't merged with `test/.luarc.json` (apparently a luals limitation?) - They totally defeat discoverability because the user just has to "know" about the various magic symbols. So they harm DX, which means they serve no purpose at all. Solution: - Expose the test API from `testutil`, so tests can call `t.it()`, `t.describe()`, etc., in the conventional way. - Drop `getfenv()` hacks. - Drop the `setfenv()` injection in `load_chunk`. - Drop `test/_meta.lua`.
* test: replace busted with local harnessLewis Russell2026-04-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace the busted-based Lua test runner with a repo-local harness. The new harness runs spec files directly under `nvim -ll`, ships its own reporter and lightweight `luassert` shim, and keeps the helper/preload flow used by the functional and unit test suites. Keep the file boundary model shallow and busted-like by restoring `_G`, `package.loaded`, `package.preload`, `arg`, and the process environment between files, without carrying extra reset APIs or custom assertion machinery. Update the build and test entrypoints to use the new runner, add black-box coverage for the harness itself, and drop the bundled busted/luacheck dependency path. AI-assisted: Codex
