Originally, test_expect_failure was designed to be the opposite of test_expect_success, but this was a bad decision. Most tests run a series of commands that leads to the single command that needs to be tested, like this: test_expect_{success,failure} 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && what is to be tested ' And expecting a failure exit from the whole sequence misses the point of writing tests. Your setup$N that are supposed to succeed may have failed without even reaching what you are trying to test. The only valid use of test_expect_failure is to check a trivial single command that is expected to fail, which is a minority in tests of Porcelain-ish commands. This large-ish patch rewrites all uses of test_expect_failure to use test_expect_success and rewrites the condition of what is tested, like this: test_expect_success 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && ! this command should fail ' test_expect_failure is redefined to serve as a reminder that that test *should* succeed but due to a known breakage in git it currently does not pass. So if git-foo command should create a file 'bar' but you discovered a bug that it doesn't, you can write a test like this: test_expect_failure 'git-foo should create bar' ' rm -f bar && git foo && test -f bar ' This construct acts similar to test_expect_success, but instead of reporting "ok/FAIL" like test_expect_success does, the outcome is reported as "FIXED/still broken".

test_description='git checkout-index test.
|
|
|
|
This test registers the following filesystem structure in the
|
|
cache:
|
|
|
|
path0 - a file
|
|
path1/file1 - a file in a directory
|
|
|
|
And then tries to checkout in a work tree that has the following:
|
|
|
|
path0/file0 - a file in a directory
|
|
path1 - a file
|
|
|
|
The git checkout-index command should fail when attempting to checkout
|
|
path0, finding it is occupied by a directory, and path1/file1, finding
|
|
path1 is occupied by a non-directory. With "-f" flag, it should remove
|
|
the conflicting paths and succeed.
