The basics
npm run format
andnpm run lint
The details
Resolves
Turns out
process.exit()
was sometimes getting called before the (async)fs.writeFile
had finished writing the last of the generator output files. This was causing occasional failures where the last (or last several) generator tests would fail because they ended up writing 0 byte files.Proposed Changes
Use
fs.writeFileSync
instead offs.writeFile
Behaviour Before Change
Generator tests could fail due to a race condition.
Behaviour After Change
Generator tests no longer fail because of this particular race condition.
Reason for Changes
Changes made in one of my TS-related branches were causing this failure to happen almost every time.
