Also on HN, but as usual can't post the link.
The comment about not having to name the steps. One way to do
that could be something like this:
step("foo bar", {
// step implementation
});
There are two problems with that:
1. D doesn't support module level code like this. Which could
be solved by either using a unit test block, a module
constructor or some other function the framework knows about to
call.
Do mixin templates work on module level? They can even have an
identifier.
2. That syntax is not as nice as in Ruby. It would be really
nice if the following could be supported:
step("foo bar") {
// step implementation
}
A trailing delegate syntax, where the delegate is passed after
the regular argument list.
Unfortunately there are syntactical ambiguities:
step("foo bar") {
}
.foo();
Is that a call chain, or two statements, with the second one
calling a function in the root scope? And I think there are other
similar cases...
