Re: [lojban] jbogenturfa'i grammar testing



Dude, you are awesome!

I've been lurking these threads of yours about your accounts with the PEG and honestly, well done.  Round of applause for your hard work in this area.

I've just checked in my first batch of tests for jbogenturfa'i.
I have tests for the selma'o ZOI and CLL 19.10 (which covers ZOI):


http://bugs.call-cc.org/browser/release/4/jbogenturfahi/trunk/tests/selmaho/zoi.scm

http://bugs.call-cc.org/browser/release/4/jbogenturfahi/trunk/tests/cll/19/10.scm

Both of these files compare Lojban statements to the parse tree
generated by jbogenturfa'i.  I don't return the literal parse tree
generated by the grammar but rather an idealized one.  For example,
here is CLL example 19.10.1:

 text:

   zo si cu lojbo valsi

 jbogenturfa'i.  Note that the structure of the text is evident,
   and that the sentence has a defined selbri and x1 place:

   (text (paragraphs
           (paragraph
             (sentence
               (term (sumti (ZO-clause (cmavo (ZO "zo"))
                                       (cmavo (SI "si")))))
               (CU-clause (cmavo (CU "cu")))
               (selbri
                 (BRIVLA-clause (gismu "lojbo"))
                 (BRIVLA-clause (gismu "valsi")))))))


 camxes.  This is the default, camxes has flags that affect the
   way the parse tree is written:

   text
     sentence
     |- ZOPre
     |  |- CMAVO
     |  |     ZO: zo
     |  |- CMAVO
     |        SI: si
     |- CMAVO
     |     CU: cu
     |- selbri3
        |- BRIVLA
        |     gismu: lojbo
        |- BRIVLA
              gismu: valsi


 jbofi'e -x -b:

[ ( zo si            ) cu      << |  lojbo              valsi          | >> ]
[ ( "erase word"     ) is/does << |  Lojbanic [type-of] being word(s)  | >> ]
[ ( valsi1 (word(s)) )         <<  \                                  /  >> ]
1 2                  2         3  4                                   4  3  1

I have not developed enough test cases yet to consider the parse
tree I'm generating final, but the basic idea is there: generate
a parse tree where the logical structure can be programatically
manipulated and the productions generating the grammar can change
without affecting the logical parse tree.

My next step is to test the remaining selma'o and CLL sections.
While I do this, I plan on developing a comprehensive test suite
for the grammar and using it to optimize and simplify the PEG
grammar, with the goal of getting it sufficiently well tested
to become the official grammar.
