Unconditionally show update nightly hint on ICE Instead of trying to guess if a update nightly hint should be shown (by checking for system time, querying version and channel info etc.), just show the update nightly hint for nightly compilers. This avoids breaking tests that match on ICE test outputs on nightly/dev channels. > Another issue is that the outdated nightly hint triggers for ICE tests, causing a mismatch with the test expectation. There doesn't seem to be any env var to suppress this. See <https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/326414-t-infra.2Fbootstrap/topic/stage0.20compiletest.20broken/near/425543681> for context.
UI Tests
This folder contains rustc's
UI tests.
Test Directives (Headers)
Typically, a UI test will have some test directives / headers which are special comments that tell compiletest how to build and intepret a test.
As part of an on-going effort to rewrite compiletest
(see https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/536), a major
change proposal to change legacy compiletest-style headers // <directive>
to ui_test-style headers
//@ <directive> was accepted (see
https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/512.
An example directive is ignore-test. In legacy compiletest style, the header
would be written as
// ignore-test
but in ui_test style, the header would be written as
//@ ignore-test
compiletest is changed to accept only //@ directives for UI tests
(currently), and will reject and report an error if it encounters any
comments // <content> that may be parsed as an legacy compiletest-style
test header. To fix this, you should migrate to the ui_test-style header
//@ <content>.
