Regression tests for fetcher-based derivations

Open sternenseemann opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

By supplying an URL to e.g. an archive or git repository, cabal2nix can generate expressions using fetcher functions from nixpkgs. We have no regression tests for this, as it requires running a nix-prefetch-* script, unfortunately, which lead to this problem not being caught. Not sure how we can make a comprehensive test suite for this.
