OK, so I just rewrote my test file like this: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- * Speed command (this must be at level-1 headline) :PROPERTIES: :ID: 4ee368b8-cf7c-4269-98c0-b28dcf94ff2b :END: Some text. * Test #+begin_src emacs-lisp (ert-deftest ob-tangle/speed-command-r () "Test that speed command `r' does demote the headline." (org-test-at-id "4ee368b8-cf7c-4269-98c0-b28dcf94ff2b" (goto-char (point-at-bol)) (org-self-insert-command ?r) (goto-char (point-at-bol)) (should (looking-at "\\*\\* Speed command")) (delete-char 1))) #+end_src --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- When running the test _once_, I get my level-1 headline preceded by 114 occurrences of ^M (yes, 114 for 1 test run!): ^M^M^M...^M^M^M* Speed command (this must be at level-1 headline) and no demotion of my headline.

I now do think you're right: an error is an error, hence the test is aborting.

Thanks for the hint. I read thru the page you link to. Just a minor thing: link to "See ert-publish-test.el for the implementation" is broken. Do you have a solution for checking against internal broken links? I still have my idea of letting DOT draw an graph of the interconnection between pages, so that we see missing pages, and unreachable ones (files on the file system, but never linked). I should (find the time to) extend it enough to serve that purpose. Best regards, Seb -- Sebastien Vauban
