Tracking issue for moving ui tests to subdirectories (original) (raw)

EDIT(@jieyouxu): I personally find just moving the tests to be not super useful. Consider also improving these tests in the process -- see #133895.

NOTE: see #73494 (comment) for mentoring instructions.

Looking at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/tree/master/src/test/ui, github truncates the list to just the first 1000 entries (of 1564 total entries).

This is especially frustrating since github also sorts by name, not by kind, and so its truncation is cutting off whole subdirectories from the view.

TODO:

• We should restructure the test suite so that no one directory has more than 1000 entries
• We should add code to tidy to ensure that future changes do not break the above invariant. (done by Check the number of entries in UI test on tidy #79959)
