Summary:
In next diff, we are going to introduce a new mode of nullsafe
(gradual). For testing, we are going to employ the strategy used by jvillard
for Pulse.
In this diff we split tests into two subfolders, one for the default and one for the gradual
mode.
We are planning to make the gradual mode default eventually. For that, most
new features will make sense for gradual mode, and we will mostly evolve
tests for that mode.
As for 'default' mode, we need to preserve tests mostly to ensure we don't introduce
regressions.
Occasionally, we might make changes that make sense for both modes, in
this (expected relatively rare) cases we will make changes to both set
of tests.
An alternative strategy would be to have two sets of issues.exp files,
one for gradual and one for default mode. This has an advantage of each
java file to be always tested twice, but disadvantage is that it will be
harder to write meaningful test code so that it makes sense for both
modes simultaneously.
