Matthijs Kooijman af8e1e6dc4 Tests: Do not read system user's data
The tests would initialize Base, PreferencesData with default settings
and/or run the arduino executable, without specifying any settings to
use. In practice, this would read settings from e.g. `~/.arduino15`,
load libraries from the user's sketchbook, etc.

This is not a good idea, since this can be influence the test. For
example, the presence of invalid libraries would cause extra output to
be generated, which breaks the `--version` test. Or having the "Use
external editor" setting set would break tests that try to edit a
sketch.

This commit fixes this. The core of this commit is in
`AbstractWithPreferencesTest`, which sets up a clean settings dir (to
replace `~/.arduino15`) with a sketchbook and `preferences.txt` file
inside before every test (and removes it again after the test.

For some tests, this is enough, but some tests create an instance of
`Base`, which again initializes everything, including preferences, from
the default location. To prevent that, `--preferences-file` is passed to
the `Base` constructor, loading the previously set up preferences. This
is handled by the new `AbstractWithPreferencesTest.createBase()` method.

Furthermore, CommandLineTest calls the actual Arduino executable, which
has the same problem. This is fixed by passing the same
`--preferences-file` option on the commandline (generated by
`AbstractWithPreferencesTest.getBaseArgs()`).

This should prevent all tests from reading the the default settings
files, fixing some tests on my system and even speeding up the tests
somewhat (due less libraries and cores to load, probably).

Arduino is an open-source physical computing platform based on a simple I/O board and a development environment that implements the Processing/Wiring language. Arduino can be used to develop stand-alone interactive objects or can be connected to software on your computer (e.g. Flash, Processing and MaxMSP). The boards can be assembled by hand or purchased preassembled; the open-source IDE can be downloaded for free at https://arduino.cc

Bug reports and technical discussions

  • To report a bug in the software or to request a simple enhancement go to Github Issues

  • More complex requests and technical discussion should go on the Arduino Developers mailing list

  • If you're interested in modifying or extending the Arduino software, we strongly suggest discussing your ideas on the Developers mailing list before starting to work on them. That way you can coordinate with the Arduino Team and others, giving your work a higher chance of being integrated into the official release

Installation

Contents of this repository

This repository contains just the code for the Arduino IDE itself. Originally, it also contained the AVR and SAM Arduino core and libraries (i.e. the code that is compiled as part of a sketch and runs on the actual Arduino device), but those have been moved into their own repositories. They are still automatically downloaded as part of the build process and included in built releases, though.

The repositories for these extra parts can be found here:

Building and testing

Instructions for building the IDE and running unit tests can be found on the wiki:

Credits

Arduino is an open source project, supported by many.

The Arduino team is composed of Massimo Banzi, David Cuartielles, Tom Igoe and David A. Mellis.

Arduino uses GNU avr-gcc toolchain, GCC ARM Embedded toolchain, avr-libc, avrdude, bossac, openOCD and code from Processing and Wiring.
