Bob Nystrom 64eccdd9be Reorganize tests and benchmark scripts.
Mainly to get rid of one top level directory. But this will
also be useful when there are tests of the embedding API.

This contains the automated validation suite for the VM and built-in libraries.

  • benchmark/ - Performance tests. These aren't strictly pass/fail, but let us compare performance both against other languages and against previous builds of Wren itself.

  • core/ - Tests for the built in core library, mainly methods on the core classes. If a bug is in wren_core.c or wren_value.c, it will most likely break one of these tests.

  • io/ - Tests for the built in IO library. In other words, methods on the IO class. If a bug is in wren_io.c, it should break one of these tests.

  • language/ - Tests of the language itself, its grammar and runtime semantics. If a bug is in wren_compiler.c or wren_vm.c, it will most likely break one of these tests. This includes tests for the syntax for the literal forms of the core classes.

  • limit/ - Tests for various hardcoded limits. The language doesn't officially specify these limits, but the Wren implementation has them. These tests ensure that limit behavior is well-defined and tested.
