This one demonstrates a bug in the current CFG. In a dictionary
comprehension `{k: v for k, v in d.items()}`, we evaluate the value
before the key, which is incorrect. (A fix for this bug has been
implemented in a separate PR.)
These use the annotated, self-verifying test files to check various
consistency requirements.
Some of these may be expressing the same thing in different ways, but
it's fairly cheap to keep them around, so I have not attempted to
produce a minimal set of queries for this.
These tests consist of various Python constructions (hopefully a
somewhat comprehensive set) with specific timestamp annotations
scattered throughout. When the tests are run using the Python 3
interpreter, these annotations are checked and compared to the "current
timestamp" to see that they are in agreement. This is what makes the
tests "self-validating".
There are a few different kinds of annotations: the basic `t[4]` style
(meaning this is executed at timestamp 4), the `t.dead[4]` variant
(meaning this _would_ happen at timestamp 4, but it is in a dead
branch), and `t.never` (meaning this is never executed at all).
In addition to this, there is a query, MissingAnnotations, which checks
whether we have applied these annotations maximally. Many expression
nodes are not actually annotatable, so there is a sizeable list of
excluded nodes for that query.
The ones that no longer require points-to no longer import
`LegacyPointsTo`. The ones that do use the specific
`...MetricsWithPointsTo` classes that are applicable.
In hindsight, having a `.getMetrics()` method that just returns `this`
is somewhat weird. It's possible that it predates the existence of the
inline cast, however.
I'm beginning to realise why I didn't do the `toString` overriding way
back when. Thankfully, now that all of our tests are in the same place,
this is actually not a terrible ordeal.
