From 59d0d5a4891469f3c91dcea7448c086cc8434a7a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Bremner Date: Sun, 29 Aug 2021 12:23:27 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] test/emacs: provide macro test-log-error Because of the way emacs reports errors, a test form can crash and not change the main buffer. To work around this, capture both signalled errors and any other messages. --- test/test-lib.el | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) diff --git a/test/test-lib.el b/test/test-lib.el index c840bc98..6831b46f 100644 --- a/test/test-lib.el +++ b/test/test-lib.el @@ -174,6 +174,18 @@ running, quit if it terminated."
