This is the page of testcases for: [[Template:Val]].
__TOC__
==Overview==
The testcases, listed below, are intended to show the working options for [[Template:Val]], and for its experimental variation [[Template:Val/sandbox]] (to develop new options). The variety of testcases is intended to be a broad sample of all possible options, so as to better catch any mistakes introduced during updates.

==Live testcases for Template:Val==
Here are some tests to see if {{tl|val}} works correctly:
* <nowiki>{{val|1}}</nowiki> = {{val|1}}
* <nowiki>{{val|-1}}</nowiki> = {{val|-1}}
* <nowiki>{{val|1|2}}</nowiki> = {{val|1|2}}
* <nowiki>{{val|1|(2)}}</nowiki> = {{val|1|(2)}}
* <nowiki>{{val|1|2|-3}}</nowiki> = {{val|1|2|-3}}

==Multiple error messages==
''10-Dec-2010:'' The [[Template:Val]] has been performing too many nested if-else-if-else checks on parameters, and has been nested over 20 deep (of the tiny 40-level "Expansion depth limit" in [[MediaWiki]] 1.6), ''before'' Val processes all decimal digits, nesting 1 level deeper for each digit after 4. This nesting is reduced by checking each validation of parameters as non-nested simple if-then logic (not if-else logic). By contrast, [[Template:Gaps]] nests only 2 levels deep (for {gaps|0.123|456|789|u=m} → {{gaps|0.123|456|789|u=m}} or such).
During 2008-2010, the [[MediaWiki]] 1.6 software has been using a 40-nest limit to stop "runaway" formatting of pages, when 60 (or 200) levels would be more practical (and stop any looping templates soon enough).

Meawhile, by changing the if-else validation checks to non-nested if-then logic, all error conditions are reported as a sequence of messages, and then the output will still be attempted. However, that is a good tactic because if 2 parameters are wrong, then getting a message for each of them is better (at one time), and then seeing a partial result can help to spot which instance of {Val} has those invalid parameters. Template {Val} had been reporting 1 error and stopping:
* For {val|0.1234S6|0.L} using 5=S, 1=L gives: {{val|0.1234S6|0.L |nocategory=true}}
With the internal nesting reduced, then Val also reports "0.L" as an invalid number.
* For {val/sandbox|0.1234S6|0.L} using "S" as 5, "L" as 1, gives: {{val/sandbox|0.1234S6|0.L |nocategory=true}}
These results were confirmed using the sandbox variation of Val to show the proposed changes. -[[User:Wikid77|Wikid77]] ([[User talk:Wikid77|talk]]) 21:00, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

==Using multi-nested templates==
''10-Dec-2010:'' The [[Template:Val/sandbox]] variation was used to develop non-nested validation of parameters. It continues to show messages for each invalid parameter, then always attempts the output, rather than nest the logic when checking for errors, else nest for further processing.

The problems with nesting beyond the tiny 40-level limit (in [[MediaWiki]] 1.6 during 2009-2010), which restricts the nesting of templates and if-else logic, is shown in the following examples.

<pre><nowiki>
* Nest 27 deep & try {Val/sandbox|9888.12345}: {{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|→ {{Val/sandbox|9888.12345}}
}}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}}
}}}} }}}} }}}} }}
</nowiki></pre>
* Nest 27 deep & try {Val/sandbox|9888.12345}: {{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|→ {{Val/sandbox|9888.12345}}
}}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}}
}}}} }}}} }}}} }}

* Nest 20 deep & try {Val|9888.12345}: {{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|→ {{Val|9888.12345 |nocategory=true}}
}}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}}
* Nest 16 deep & try {Val|9888.123456789}: {{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x|{{1x
|→ {{Val|9888.123456789 |nocategory=true}}
}}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}} }}}}
Because {Val} had been coded with nested if-else-if-else-if-else, to check for 8 error conditions, it could not run within other templates nested to 20 deep, during 2009-2010, but the sandbox version could run even when nested 27 deep. When Val processes the decimal digits, it nests 1 level deeper for each decimal digit after 4 (beyond 0.0001). -[[User:Wikid77|Wikid77]] ([[User talk:Wikid77|talk]]) 21:00, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
