Inline snapshot roadmap

[nedtwigg]

The bones of inline snapshots landed in:

• Barebones of int selfie #23

Things which we'll need to implement

• handle toBe(LITERAL), not just toBe_TODO() Implement toBe(LITERAL), not just toBe_TODO() #49
• breakup long integers 1_000 not 1000, 1_000_000 not 1000000 Int Literal: encode long integers #70
• implement LongSelfie Long Literal: Add long literal support #71
• implement BooleanSelfie Literal: bool literal/selfie #72
• implement StringLiteral single-line Inline string literals (single line) #56
• implement StringLiteral multi-line
  • Kotlin """ Add support for Kotlin multiline (and single line) literals #90
  • Java 15+ """ Add support for multiline java #87
  • Java <15 "foo\n" + "bar\n", but we should support this last not necessary for 1.0
• whitespace inside the toBe (e.g. .toBe( 35 ) instead of .toBe(35), and also newlines
  • we need to "parse" the file enough to survive auto formatters changing the location of the literal
  • Make the parsing of toBe more flexible to (eventually) support multiline strings #86
• error message if it isn't a literal (e.g. .toBe(27 + 8))
  • before we ever change a snapshot, we always make sure first that we can parse it correctly as a sanity check
  • tell the user that it must be a literal, and point them to toBe_TODO() to get back on track
  • Make the parsing of toBe more flexible to (eventually) support multiline strings #86
