Our test-suite coverage keeps improving, (slowly).

14 years agonotmuch-test: Fix misalignment in output.

notmuch-test: Fix misalignment in output.

Clean output is just so much easier to read (and validate).

14 years agonotmuch.el: Use emacs built-in forward-button and backward-button

notmuch.el: Use emacs built-in forward-button and backward-button

There are built-ins, so why not use them?

14 years agoUse forward-line instead of next-line
Carl Worth [Fri, 5 Feb 2010 19:14:25 +0000 (11:14 -0800)]
Use forward-line instead of next-line

We do this all the time, but at least emacs is kind enough to remind us,
(when compiling), that next-line is only intended for interactive use,
and we should use forward-line inside of lisp code.

14 years agonotmuch.el: Add missing documentation for the new 'h' keybinding.
Carl Worth [Fri, 5 Feb 2010 19:30:35 +0000 (11:30 -0800)]
notmuch.el: Add missing documentation for the new 'h' keybinding.

Without this, our help screen displayed 'h' with no description of
what it does.

14 years agonotmuch.el: Add keybinding to toggle display of message body and headers.
Kan-Ru Chen [Tue, 1 Dec 2009 06:13:51 +0000 (14:13 +0800)]
notmuch.el: Add keybinding to toggle display of message body and headers.

I really missed this feature. Added notmuch-show-toggle-current-body and
notmuch-show-toggle-current-header and bind them to 'b' and 'h'.

14 years agonotmuch-test: Add test to verify that uuencoded data is not indexed.
Carl Worth [Fri, 5 Feb 2010 18:24:51 +0000 (10:24 -0800)]
notmuch-test: Add test to verify that uuencoded data is not indexed.

As recently promised, no new features are being accepted to notmuch
without corresponding new tests for the test suite.

14 years agonotmuch-test: Add several tests of "notmuch search"
Carl Worth [Fri, 5 Feb 2010 18:00:04 +0000 (10:00 -0800)]
notmuch-test: Add several tests of "notmuch search"

These tests were surprisingly simple to write---not much code at all
and most of them worked the first time even with hand-prepared
versions of the expected output.

14 years agonotmuch-test: Add a new add_message function.
Carl Worth [Fri, 5 Feb 2010 01:34:48 +0000 (17:34 -0800)]
notmuch-test: Add a new add_message function.

The previous generate_message function is what's needed when testing
"notmuch new". But after that, we never want to generate a message
without also adding it to the index. So create a new add_message
function with this convenience.
