The new client is hopefully faster. Why, you ask?
Instead of spawning a new Lua process each time a test asks for a new window,
there is a "daemon process" which gets commands to open new windows from its
standard input. That way, Lua doesn't have to load LGI all the time and lots of
pointless work is skipped. The daemon process exits when its stdin is closed and
thus should automatically exit when awesome exits.

This test changes the mouse cursor's position and afterwards has an
assert that checks something on the tooltip. This really looks a lot
like it expects the mouse cursor's position to be already updated and
its enter and leave events to be handled. However, this is now how
things actually work.
Fix this by moving the assert into its own step, so that in between the
normal main loop runs.

run.sh waits for awesome's startup to be done by having awesome execute "return
1" via its dbus interface. However, by default dbus has a 25 second timeout
before it fails a dbus-send invocation. This defeats the purpose of this
exercise.
So instead of using awesome-client, this commit makes the code use dbus-send
directly and specifies a relative low reply timeout (which should still be
plenty so that this doesn't erroneously fail).

Before this commit: When we are GC'ing an object, we clear its metatable, since
otherwise crashes could occur in various places. This means that if someone
tries to use such an object, they get an unhelpful error message like "attempt
to index userdata object" and they don't understand what the problem is. Also,
this means that foo.valid does not actually work after GC.
This commit changes this behaviour. Instead of setting an empty metatable, we
now create a metatable with an __index and __newindex method. These metamethods
produce better error messages that they sat the underlying object was already
garbage collected. Better yet, the __index metamethod makes foo.valid be false
instead of causing an error, so that the existing machinery for detecting
invalid objects continues to work.
This commit also adds a functional test that verifies this behaviour.

To ensure that some features such as SNID rules work, we need
to ensure that the screen isn't set by other code paths. Only
a single algorithm can be executed for the screen. As soon
as many algorithms are executed on events such as "manage", it
will most likely regress again.
This commit make sure of that by disabling the default normal source
of c.screen. After that, any other c.screen changes can be
considered bugs.
The code was written so that it assumes that disconnecting the last signal also
removed the corresponding entry in the signal array. This lead e.g. to an
index-out-of-bounds access in some cases.

The "test launching client on a specific screen" suit is very slow.
However, it is also necessary to avoid issues such as #1069 or #154
from regressing again.
This is a temporary fix until a faster test client "daemon" is
developped.
While testing using "the real deal" and with all the tests would be
better, it would add a lot of complexity to the testing framework.
This module generate multiple multi-screen scenarios and some obvious
issues that they can cause. Over time, as more steps are added, it
will provide "good enough" testing for multiple screens.
Individual test suits can require() this utility to replicate their
steps for each multi-screen scenarios.
This uses the new support introduced in f0f31bc305 in the docs and in
tests/run.sh, removing an useless use of cat/echo.

When e.g. test-leaks.lua fails, it will cause a Lua error before starting the
test runner. This means that the test will just hang, because nothing causes
awesome to quit.
Handle this by starting a timer when the test runner is loaded and quitting
awesome in there if no test run was started yet. This only works if all tests
load the runner before doing anything that could fail, so the require("_runner")
is moved to the beginning in every test.

Step 1 starts a client and uses awful.rules to move it to a not-selected tag.
Because this rule still has focus=true, this calls awful.ewmh.activate() via the
request::activate signal. This function makes the client urgent because it is on
a not-selected tag.
Step 3 does the same thing, but also uses switchtotag=true. Now
awful.ewmh.activate() doesn't make the client urgent because it successfully
focused this client. However, the test was wrongly assuming that the client
became urgent (copy&paste error? I don't know).
The fix is of course not to require the client to become urgent.

Both the test runner and the wibox use gears.timer.delayed_call(). The test
runner uses this to call steps and the wibox uses it to trigger redraws. When
running under LuaCov, the Lua code becomes slow enough that the wibox didn't
redraw yet when the leak check is run. This causes the check to fail, because
the client is still referenced by the tasklist and thus cannot be garbage
collected.
Fix this by waiting one more iteration before running the leak check.

The benchmarks in tests/test-benchmark.lua have two modes. When CI=1 is set in
the environment, only a "quick" and less exact test is done. Otherwise, a slower
and more exact measurements is taken. This was added so that we do not waste CPU
time on travis.
However, most of the time the user running "make check" doesn't want exact
measurements either. So instead of only being quick when CI=1 is set, this
commit changes the logic to always being quick unless BENCHMARK_EXACT=1 is set.
Additionally, a message is printed next to the benchmark results so that the
user is reminded to set this var if the measurements should actually mean

When using `spawn` without startup notification support, the
`startup_id` property on the client should be nil.
This adds rxvt-unicode to the Travis build, because it supports startup
notifications, but xterm does not. We should replace xterm with it in
the existing tests then later.
* This commit add a new module to avoid a (4 level) loop dependency
* It is now possible to call awful.spawn() with a table of properties
* awful.rules is used to execute the rules.
* Everything is public to allow alternative workflow modules such as
Tyrannical to use their own callback implementation.
This makes it possible to add something similar to a __index / __newindex
metamethod to all our C objects. Based on this, Lua can then easily implement
arbitrary properties on our capi objects.
I have no idea why this needs collectgarbage() to be called twice.
On the other hand, I can explain the change in tooltip.lua. Lua 5.2 introduced
"ephermeron tables". This means that in the following sitation, lua 5.2 can
collect the entry from the table, while 5.1 keeps the entry alive, because the
table has a strong reference to the value and that in turn has a strong
reference to the key:
t = setmetatable({}, { __mode = "k"})
do
local k = {}
t[k] = function() print(k) end
end
collectgarbage("collect")
print(next(t, nil))
To handle this incompatibility, this commit just removes the whole indirection
through the module-level variable "data".

Apparently some of the last commits speeds up create_wibox() a lot. This
highlights that this is a bad test: After creating thousands of wiboxes, awesome
needed 15 seconds to draw all of them and in the end some dbus timeout aborted
the test run.
However, it's irrelevant how quickly we can create wibox. The interesting number
is how quickly we can display a new wibox. Thus, this commits changes the code
so that it also measures the time that is needed to update the wibox. This way,
we don't accumulate a huge number of pending repaints and everything's fine.

When using Xephyr, this already starts the server with -noreset, but for Xvfb we

lost at server reset.
This wasn't a problem before commit 6d4837a53a. That commit moved the launch
of the dbus session after the setting of the DPI. So previously, waiting for
server startup was half broken (the dbus session already tried to connect to the
server to check for when it shuts down), but due to this no server reset
occurred and thus the DPI was correctly applied. After this commit, the server
immediately resets after xrdb is done setting the DPI and the value set is lost.
