Navigator.nvim VS vim-test

If screen real estate is not an issue I prefer multiple panes and having neovim zoomed in when Im mostly coding. I also recommend setting up neovim and tmux so that moving between tmux panes and nvim windows is done transparently with the same key combinations. See this snippet in my tmux config that enables that on the tmux side: https://github.com/eclbg/dotfiles/blob/main/tmux/tmux.conf#L31 And you'll need Navigator.nvim so you can move out of nvim and into tmux

Moving left and right between Neovim and Wezterm panes was a pain (no pun intended), and especially so since the existing navigator.nvim integration wasn't able to detect that nvim was the foreground process in some scenaros.

if I'm not mistaken navigator does help with switching between nvim/wezterm panes

Do you by chance use this plugin: https://github.com/numToStr/Navigator.nvim/wiki/WezTerm-Integration

Thanks for doing this. I dropped Tmux for Wezterm's native panes earlier this year. Glad WezTerm finally added the support for this. However, I think there may be a mistake in the Wezterm config in your wiki.

especially Navigator.nvim?

I open a tmux split pane, or a floating terminal window in Neovim for one-off commands. I also use Navigator.nvim for seamless navigation between Neovim splits and tmux panes.

If you need inspiration, you can use vim-test as a reference. It's the Vim equivalent of neotest, written in Vimscript (doesn't support tree-sitter and diagnostics).

My plugin NeoTerm.lua supports "run test at cursor" out of the box with vim-test, i.e. zero configuration.

Vim test is great, supports a lot of frameworks and is easy to extend (with vi script) https://github.com/vim-test/vim-test

I am trying to set up the popular vim-test (https://github.com/vim-test/vim-test) plugin so that when I run tests they run on a tmux pane. vim-test uses a default strategy of running the tests via neovim’s built-in terminal. They also support many strategies which include running on a tmux pane.

I use https://github.com/vim-test/vim-test runs tests in a lot of languages. Very fast and clean output.

vim-test run your test with a simple mapping. Works with rSpec and Minitest (and dozens other languages)

I've made the move from vim to Emacs with Evil-mode for a little while now, but still miss https://github.com/vim-test/vim-test. I wonder if there's a port for evil-mode or if you know of something closer to it you can recommend. Thanks

One project that does a fantastic job on these two points is https://github.com/vim-test/vim-test Both adding new execution environments and test-runners can be done with minimal fuzz. Only thing is I would like a tutorial of how to add a new runner.
