This version of death tests spawns processes instead of forking the current process. This makes it much easier to port the tests to more platforms, since a lot of platforms don't support forking since it's a very intrusive and expensive operation.

I'm ambivalent on this patch because it leaves us in a state where we have two frameworks for death tests and both are reasonably heavyweight. Instead, if we wanted to improve significantly on top of what we have today, I think we would need to implement support for these tests in the test harness (Lit).
We explored this a bit and it could look something like this:
#define TEST_EXPECTED_ERROR(expr, message) do { if (gather_tests) { print(f"{test_counter} [[[{message}]]]"); } else if (test_counter-- == 0) { expr(); } } while (false) // From lit: // 1. Run the test with no arguments. // 2. Parse the output and build a mapping like this: // {test-number => expected-error-message} // 3. Then you run the executable with each test number and you check the error message. TEST_RUN_VERIFY_MAIN() { { typedef std::array<int, 0> C; C c = {}; C const& cc = c; TEST_EXPECTED_ERROR(c[0], "cannot call array<T, 0>::operator[] on a zero-sized array"); TEST_EXPECTED_ERROR(c[1], "cannot call array<T, 0>::operator[] on a zero-sized array"); TEST_EXPECTED_ERROR(cc[0], "cannot call array<T, 0>::operator[] on a zero-sized array"); TEST_EXPECTED_ERROR(cc[1], "cannot call array<T, 0>::operator[] on a zero-sized array"); } { typedef std::array<const int, 0> C; C c = {{}}; C const& cc = c; TEST_EXPECTED_ERROR(c[0], "cannot call array<T, 0>::operator[] on a zero-sized array"); TEST_EXPECTED_ERROR(c[1], "cannot call array<T, 0>::operator[] on a zero-sized array"); TEST_EXPECTED_ERROR(cc[0], "cannot call array<T, 0>::operator[] on a zero-sized array"); TEST_EXPECTED_ERROR(cc[1], "cannot call array<T, 0>::operator[] on a zero-sized array"); } return 0; }
Unfortunately, the "From Lit" part ends up being quite complicated (we prototyped) and so it's not clear it's worth pursuing at this time. Barring that, I think we should instead improve the current death test framework to support intentional calls to std::terminate, which should be doable roughly with

20 | Should this be TEST_TERMINATIONS? It's also problematic that the test is going to appear to work if you misuse the "test framework" like this. Could probably be detected by referencing something that TEST_TERMINATIONS defines from EXPECT_LIBCPP_ASSERT_FAILURE. | |
