Do add unit tests whenever possible. Consider breaking functions into an interface and a backend function for convenient testing.
-
Do add a short summary in the Unreleased section of the CHANGELOG.
-
Do use the
rxmacro (S-expressions) whenever rewriting regular expressions or introducing new ones. This keeps the code much more readable.
Working With Tests
It's easy to add new ERT tests to the julia-mode test suite.
You only need to prepare a new ert-deftest definition in julia-mode-tests.el.
You can run the test suite from the command line with:
emacs -batch -L . -l ert -l julia-mode-tests.el -f ert-run-tests-batch-and-exit
