Jeremy Hyltonc960f262006-01-27 15:18:39 +00001"""This module tests SyntaxErrors.

3Here's an example of the sort of thing that is tested.

5>>> def f(x):
6... global x

Jeremy Hyltonc960f262006-01-27 15:18:39 +00009
10The tests are all raise SyntaxErrors. They were created by checking
11each C call that raises SyntaxError. There are several modules that
12raise these exceptions-- ast.c, compile.c, future.c, pythonrun.c, and
13symtable.c.
14
15The parser itself outlaws a lot of invalid syntax. None of these
16errors are tested here at the moment. We should add some tests; since
17there are infinitely many programs with invalid syntax, we would need
18to be judicious in selecting some.
19
20The compiler generates a synthetic module name for code executed by
21doctest. Since all the code comes from the same module, a suffix like
22[1] is appended to the module name, As a consequence, changing the
23order of tests in this module means renumbering all the errors after
24it. (Maybe we should enable the ellipsis option for these tests.)
25
26In ast.c, syntax errors are raised by calling ast_error().

102If the left-hand side of an assignment is a list or tuple, an illegal
103expression inside that contain should still cause a syntax error.
104This test just checks a couple of cases rather than enumerating all of
105them.

Serhiy Storchakafe2bbb12018-03-18 09:56:52 +0200568 SyntaxError: 'continue' not properly in loop
Thomas Wouters89f507f2006-12-13 04:49:30 +0000569
570There is one test for a break that is not in a loop. The compiler
571uses a single data structure to keep track of try-finally and loops,
572so we need to be sure that a break is actually inside a loop. If it
573isn't, there should be a syntax error.
