emacs Expectations Mode - can't make it work

[Yuri Steinschreiber]

Hi -

Is anybody using Expectations Mode https://github.com/gar3thjon3s/expectations-mode? When I try to use it with the latest CIDER and cider-nrepl I get "Symbol's definition is void: nrepl-send-string" when trying to run expectations test.

I suspect version mismatch between Expectations Mode and CIDER or cider-nrepl, but before digging deeper I'd like to make sure I'm not on a wild goose chase.

My environment: emacs 24.4.1 Ubuntu (the same happens on 24.5.1 on Windows,) CIDER 0.11.0-snapshot from melpa, cider-nrepl 0.10.1, I'm using emacs Prelude with only slight additional customizations. By the way, I get a bunch of warnings on REPL startup about version mismatch between CIDER and  cider-nrepl - not sure if it's related, but can anybody can either tell me it's ok, or point at the way of fixing it.

p.s. Not an emacs expert by a long shot, so might be missing something totally obvious.

Responding to my own question:

1. Indeed, Expectations Mode can't work with CIDER starting from 0.8.0, after refactoring and function renaming. So apparently no one is using it.

2. The same issue was already reported to Expectations Mode https://github.com/gar3thjon3s/expectations-mode/issues/11 a couple of months ago.

3. I tried to fix expectations-mode.el, adjusting the function names, but then hit another problem. Unfortunately, can't devote more effort to it.

Sadly, Expectations Mode seems to be abandoned. Leaving an FYI to the community.

Cheers.................Yuri

We stopped using expectations-mode a long time ago, instead adding this to our Emacs config:

;; run expectations

(defun run-expectations ()

  (interactive)

  (cider-insert-in-repl "(expectations/run-tests [*ns*])" t))

(global-set-key (kbd "C-c C-/") 'run-expectations)

It’s short, simple, addresses our most common use case, and works well with our workflow (C-c C-k, C-c M-n and then write/update a test, C-c C-c to eval it, C-c C-/ to run it, rinse, repeat).

Thanks Sean! Simple and sufficient. I’ll try to also implement something similar (probably a macro) in IntelliJ while waiting for Cursive to add Expectations support.

Cheers……. Yuri

Just had to add that this emacs binding was awesome! Worked great.

Thanks for posting that Sean.
