// The goal of this skeleton is to make programs more easy to understand and
// more malleable, easy to rewrite in radical ways without accidentally
// breaking some corner case. Tests further both goals. They help
// understandability by letting one make small changes and get feedback. What
// if I wrote this line like so? What if I removed this function call, is it
// really necessary? Just try it, see if the tests pass. Want to explore
// rewriting this bit in this way? Tests put many refactorings on a firmer
// footing.
//
// But the usual way we write tests seems incomplete. Refactorings tend to
// work in the small, but don't help with changes to function boundaries. If
// you want to extract a new function you have to manually test-drive it to
// create tests for it. If you want to inline a function its tests are no
// longer valid. In both cases you end up having to reorganize code as well as
// tests, an error-prone activity.
//
// This file tries to fix this problem by supporting domain-driven testing
// rather than coverage-driven testing. The goal isn't to test all possible
// paths in the code any longer, but to focus on the domain of inputs the
// program should work on. All tests invoke the program in a single way: by
// calling run() with different inputs. The program operates on the input and
// logs _facts_ it deduces to a trace:
// trace("label") << "fact 1: " << val;
//
// The tests check for facts:
// :(scenario foo)
// 34 # call run() with this input
// +label: fact 1: 34 # trace should have logged this at the end
// -label: fact 1: 35 # trace should never contain such a line
//
// Since we never call anything but the run() function directly, we never have
// to rewrite the tests when we reorganize the internals of the program. We
// just have to make sure our rewrite deduces the same facts about the domain,
// and that's something we're going to have to do anyway.
//
// To avoid the combinatorial explosion of integration tests, we organize the
// program into different layers, and each fact is logged to the trace with a
// specific label. Individual tests can focus on specific labels. In essence,
// validating the facts logged with a specific label is identical to calling
// some internal subsystem.
//
// Traces interact salubriously with layers. Thanks to our ordering
// directives, each layer can contain its own tests. They may rely on other
// layers, but when a test fails its usually due to breakage in the same
// layer. When multiple tests fail, it's usually useful to debug the very
// first test to fail. This is in contrast with the traditional approach,
// where changes can cause breakages in faraway subsystems, and picking the
// right test to debug can be an important skill to pick up.
//
// A final wrinkle is for recursive functions; it's often useful to segment
// calls of different depth in the trace:
// +eval/1: => 34 # the topmost call to eval should have logged this line
// (look at new_trace_frame below)
//
// To build robust tests, trace facts about your domain rather than details of
// how you computed them.
//
// More details: http://akkartik.name/blog/tracing-tests
//
// ---
//
// Between layers and domain-driven testing, programming starts to look like a
// fundamentally different activity. Instead of a) superficial, b) local rules
// on c) code [like http://blog.bbv.ch/2013/06/05/clean-code-cheat-sheet],
// we allow programmers to engage with the a) deep, b) global structure of the
// c) domain. If you can systematically track discontinuities in the domain
// you don't care if the code used gotos as long as it passed the tests. If
// tests become more robust to run it becomes easier to try out radically
// different implementations for the same program. If code is super-easy to
// rewrite, it becomes less important what indentation style it uses, or that
// the objects are appropriately encapsulated, or that the functions are
// referentially transparent.
//
// Instead of plumbing, programming becomes building and gradually refining a
// map of the environment the program must operate under. Whether a program is
// 'correct' at a given point in time is a red herring; what matters is
// avoiding regression by monotonically nailing down the more 'eventful' parts
// of the terrain. It helps readers new and old and rewards curiosity to
// organize large programs in self-similar hiearchies of example scenarios
// colocated with the code that makes them work.
//
// "Programming properly should be regarded as an activity by which
// programmers form a mental model, rather than as production of a program."
