vim-test VS targets.vim

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.

targets is nice too.

The thing that has the biggest impact on me is ci”, ca”, da”, etc.. so I suggested getting used to using those.. and then you can get more pedantic with it using https://github.com/wellle/targets.vim

I do recommend getting, targets.vim https://github.com/wellle/targets.vim .. which unlocks the n(ext) and l(ast) verbs(?) ..ahhhh it’s REALLY REALLY good, I use 2in” like a lot

In fact, as /u/Chillbrosaurus_Rex points out, there's a plugin, targets.vim, that expands on Vim's built-in text objects, and one of the things it does is to provide this kind of forward and reverse direction functionality.

Hey, I use targets.vim, how does it compare with that?

You might benefit from targets.vim, it works well with your thought process. It adds a bunch of new really useful editing targets (which should be builtin imo).

Thanks for the through explanation. I has seen that and considered using it in the past. Can I ask how it compares to https://github.com/wellle/targets.vim? Would you consider mini.ai a replacement or complementary?

This is provided by targets.vim, along with a bunch of other useful text objects.
