Summary: Our gentest works by console.logging the contents of the test it is generating to the browser powered by the driver. The driver then reads the logs and writes it to a file. An unfortunate side effect here is that we cannot console.log to debug how the gentest logic actually works since the driver is expecting formatted code. To get around this I had the driver filter out logs with a certain prefix and add that a helper that logs a message with this prefix to the scripts.

Yoga

Yoga is an embeddable and performant flexbox layout engine with bindings for multiple languages.
Building
Yoga's main implementation targets C++ 20 with accompanying build logic in CMake. A wrapper is provided to build the main library and run unit tests.
./unit_tests <Debug|Release>
While not required, this script will use ninja if it is installed for faster builds.
Yoga is additionally part of the vcpkg collection of ports maintained by Microsoft and community contributors. If the version is out of date, please create an issue or pull request on the vcpkg repository.
Adding Tests
Many of Yoga's tests are automatically generated, using HTML fixtures describing node structure. These are rendered in Chrome to generate an expected layout result for the tree. New fixtures can be added to gentest/fixtures
.
<div id="my_test" style="width: 100px; height: 100px; align-items: center;">
<div style="width: 50px; height: 50px;"></div>
</div>
To generate new tests from added fixtures:
- Ensure you have yarn classic installed.
- Run
yarn install
to install dependencies for the test generator. - Run
yarn gentest
in theyoga
directory.
Debugging
Yoga provides a VSCode "launch.json" configuration which allows debugging unit tests. Simply add your breakpoints, and run "Debug C++ Unit tests (lldb)" (or "Debug C++ Unit tests (vsdbg)" on Windows).
