Patch 7.4.944
Problem: Writing tests for Vim script is hard.
Solution: Add assertEqual(), assertFalse() and assertTrue() functions.
Add
Why `assert{upper case letter}`? I know exactly no functions that use this
naming convention.
Yes, it's different. There are some other functions with a capital,
There are? Which ones?
hlID()
synID()
synIDattr()
diff_hlID() is nicely inconsistent..
but many more with an underscore, or just all lower case.
But I do think that assertEqual() is easier to read than assertequal()
and it's shorter than assert_equal(). So do we prefer consistency or
nicer names?
+1 for consistency and the underscore.
Counting votes...
+1 for consistency/predictability over inconsistency. You may not like
it but life is easier in the long run.

Perhaps there also is a case for adding hl_id(), syn_id(), etc. Or is
the move to rename all existing functions in camelCase? Or just new
ones? Or special ones, and if so how are special ones recognised?
