Generate Abstract Code From Tests

[AlexDarigan]

Inspired by this tweet I think we could implement a basic version where when we write projects test-first, we could automatically generate code by parsing the test script.

extends WAT.Test

const Player = preload("pathwhichdoesnotyetexist")
const Coin = preload("anotherpaththatdoesnotexist")

func test_player_pickup() -> void:
    var player = Player.new()
    var coin = Coin.new()
    coin.value = 100
    player.pickup(coin)

    asserts.is_equal(player.score, coin.value`)

After running our generation code, this would create a player script with a score int property and a coin along with a value int property. Player would also have a pickup method that takes a coin type and returns void. They would then be saved at the paths in the const.

This is cool and all but I think between how complicated is to implement plus how much people will actually use it isn't worth the effort.

Reopening unresolved issue. This might be better as a separate plugin.
