This is first in a hoped-for series of moves away from a monolithic
common.js that is loaded for every test and towards a more modular
approach. (In the end, common.js will hopefully contain checks for
variables leaking into the global space and perhaps some of the more
ubiquitous functions like common.mustCall().)

Move the WPT testing code to its own module.

Checklist

+1 on the initiative, but I wonder if we shouldn't have a test/lib/ directory to put those factored out modules.

LGTM in this case as common.WPT seems always used separately, so

-const { test, assert_equals } = common.WPT;
+const { test, assert_equals } = require('../wpt');

isn't a big deal.

But in general if we're going to split up common and start having:

-const common = require('../common');
+require('../common');
+const commonx = require('../commonx');
+const commony = require('../commony');
+const commonz = require('../commonz');

then I'm not sure what the benefit is (or if it outweighs the increased complexity, especially for new contributors).


Same applies to adding a test/lib/ directory. At the moment anyone looking at test/ sees test folders and a common.js file, which I'd hope is pretty intuitive (and a style used by other projects). Of course we do already have test/testpy/, which is non-obvious. Maybe a test/common/ directory would be obvious enough, 🤷‍♀️ .

Good idea. We could move common.js to test/common/index.js in that case, keeping require('../common') compatibility.

I like the idea of a test/common/ directory to split up the existing large file.

I don't like losing access to everything I need for testing from require('../common'). What if we lazy loaded less commonly used things?

I'm +0 zero on this change. Is it a problem to load it for every test ? If not then if we want to modularize into separate files maybe we can do that but still end up with a single import ?

Even if we don't do this for anything else, I think it makes a lot of sense to split out the WPT stuff because it really is its own thing that gets used its own way. People shouldn't use it without fully understanding where it comes from and why it is the way it is. At the same time, it isn't something people need to bother with in the vast majority of cases.

I'm indifferent towards splitting out WPT. Its (very specific) use is documented, and I'm of the opinion that people generally won't touch the stuff they don't know about. Though I can see how logically it might not fit with the rest of test/common.js.

On splitting up test/common.js in general, I'm –½. What are the benefits of splitting it up? This might sound snarky, but AFAICT the utilities can all go under one category "miscellaneous."

On splitting up and lazy-loading different utilities, I'm –1. If the time being spent on loading test/common/* is insignificant then lazy-loading would be overkill, and if not I'd advocate for not splitting it at all.

@TimothyGu You make some good points, for sure. The main benefit would be for newcomers looking at the docs. Instead of dozens of properties, many of which won't matter to them, it can just be properties that are easy to understand and whose value is readily apparent. Like, common.isWindows? Sure, I get it. common.mustCall()? Yup, that's useful. Someone can read the common docs and feel like they've understood the module rather than puzzling over when, why, and how to use common.spawnSyncPwd() and common.arrayStream.

(On the other hand, looking at common, most of the things fall into the "ubiquitous, simple, and useful" category. But for the things that don't...)

Are we still calling the module common.js after the refactor? How about just common?

@Trott could you backport this to v6.x-staging? It'd be good to get this backported as otherwise this is going to cause a lot of conflicts.

If yes please follow the guide and raise a backport PR, if no let me know or add the dont-land-on label.
