Clojurians Log v2

I like the pattern of having the function I'm working on in a file and the exercising code be in my repl. 1. Edit the code 2. Whack C-c C-c C-c C-z M-p RET C-z Or 1. Edit the code 2. Eval the form (`C-c C-c`) 3. Switch to the repl (`C-c C-z`) 4. Bring up the previous form and execute it (`M-p RET`) 5. Return to the function I'm working on (`C-c C-z`) If you're not using the current keyboard macro for anything else that can be collapsed down to 1. Edit the code 2. Whack <f4> :)

Going the clojure.test route though is intriguing. I think it would be ideal to combine this with the with-test feature of clojure.test so that you can freely edit both the invocation and the implementation at the same time with a single C-c C-c or C-M-x. Unfortunately I can't seem to get CIDER to recognize with-test as something that defines after a quick try. Can anyone make CIDER recognize this as a test to run?

(require '[clojure.test :refer [with-test is]])

(with-test
  (defn +'
    "Adds two numbers"
    [a b]
    (+ a b))
  (is (= 3 (+' 1 2))))

user> (require '[clojure.test :refer [with-test is]])

(with-test
  (defn +'
    "Adds two numbers"
    [a b]
    (+ a b))
  (is (= 3 (+' 1 2))))

nil#'user/+'

Testing user

Ran 1 tests containing 1 assertions.
0 failures, 0 errors.
{:test 1, :pass 1, :fail 0, :error 0, :type :summary}

My initial attempt was to customize the cider-test-defining-forms to add with-test but doing that doesn't change the behavior I'm seeing at all. ¯\(ツ)/¯

Oooooo this is super nice. Yeah after running the cider-test-run-test function through edebug the trick is adding defn to the cider-test-defining-forms. With that I can whack C-c C-c C-C C-t C-t and rerun the exercising invocation. And again if my keyboard macro slot wasn't busy with something else I could bind that to <f4>. That's actually really nice. Great idea @pithyless! :)

OT: I'm an emacs evil-mode user and C-c C-c C-C C-t C-t looks absolutely terrifying (compared to say , t a), but whatever works! ;)

LOL. /me crosses self against modal editing. xD

The result's the same in either case. :)

The key sequence isn't nearly as bad as it looks if you use your 6th finger.

@timvisher are you referring to a USB foot pedal? :P

No although I've considered it! Just my palms. http://ergoemacs.org/emacs/emacs_pinky.html

So basically to type that sequence I just rest my left palm down slightly and then rapidly type c c c t t. There's probably a better sequence but I'm not vimgolfing here. :)

Oh yeah for instance another prefix for test map is indeed , so it could be C-c C-c C-c , t but then I need to lift my palm during the sequence so that's actually worse.

This is completely irrelevant to you as an evil user but anything that makes me break the ctrl key sequence is a big no no. It makes emacs actually feel clunky to use. It's remarkable how similar to vim it is once you're pressing ctrl with your palm and meta with your thumb.

(Similar to vim in terms of raw bindings vs. edit function composition which, IMO, is vim's real super power)

@pithyless exactly! Wouldn't have made the switch (from NeoVim) without EVIL. EVIL rocks.
