testing-conventions 0.0.18

//! Rust unit-isolation lint (#44): an inline `#[cfg(test)] mod` may call only into
//! the unit under test — its parent module, reached via `super::`. A call *out of
//! the test's own module* — into another first-party module (`crate::…`), an
//! external crate, or effectful `std` — is a violation. Inject a trait double
//! (hand-rolled or `mockall`) instead; the compiler checks the double.
//!
//! Detection is AST-based: each `*.rs` file under the crate root is parsed with
//! `syn` and its `#[cfg(test)]` modules are walked with a [`Visit`]or. This is the
//! deterministic `syn` heuristic; full name-resolution precision is a future
//! `dylint` pass. The design and its precision limits live in
//! `internals/rust/isolation.md`.
//!
//! Implemented detector:
//! - **`no-out-of-module-call`** (D1): a call expression `A::…::f(…)` inside a
//!   `#[cfg(test)]` module whose leading segment `A` reaches out of the module —
//!   `crate::` (first-party, another module), `super::super::…` (an ancestor),
//!   an external crate from `Cargo.toml`, or effectful `std`. A single `super::`,
//!   `self`/`Self`, a bare/unqualified call, and pure `std` (incl. `io::Cursor`)
//!   stay in-module and are not flagged.
