+ * FILE-LOCAL TESTING MACROS
+ *
+ * Purpose:
+ *
+ *     1) Upon test failure, goto-jump to single-location teardown in test
+ *        function. E.g., `error:` (consistency with HDF corpus) or
+ *        `failed:` (reflects purpose).
+ *            >>> using "error", in part because `H5E_BEGIN_TRY` expects it.
+ *     2) Increase clarity and reduce overhead found with `TEST_ERROR`.
+ *        e.g., "if(somefunction(arg, arg2) < 0) TEST_ERROR:"
+ *        requires reading of entire line to know whether this if/call is
+ *        part of the test setup, test operation, or a test unto itself.
+ *     3) Provide testing macros with optional user-supplied failure message;
+ *        if not supplied (NULL), generate comparison output in the spirit of
+ *        test-driven development. E.g., "expected 5 but was -3"
+ *        User messages clarify test's purpose in code, encouraging description
+ *        without relying on comments.
+ *     4) Configurable expected-actual order in generated comparison strings.
+ *        Some prefer `VERIFY(expected, actual)`, others
+ *        `VERIFY(actual, expected)`. Provide preprocessor ifdef switch
+ *        to satifsy both parties, assuming one paradigm per test file.
+ *        (One could #undef and redefine the flag through the file as desired,
+ *         but _why_.)
+ *
+ *     Provided as courtesy, per consideration for inclusion in the library
+ *     proper.
+ *
+ *     Macros:
+ *
+ *         JSVERIFY_EXP_ACT - ifdef flag, configures comparison order
+ *         FAIL_IF()        - check condition
+ *         FAIL_UNLESS()    - check _not_ condition
+ *         JSVERIFY()       - long-int equality check; prints reason/comparison
+ *         JSVERIFY_NOT()   - long-int inequality check; prints
+ *         JSVERIFY_STR()   - string equality check; prints

- *
- * FILE-LOCAL TESTING MACROS
- *
- * Purpose:
- *
- *     1) Upon test failure, goto-jump to single-location teardown in test
- *        function. E.g., `error:` (consistency with HDF corpus) or
- *        `failed:` (reflects purpose).
- *            >>> using "error", in part because `H5E_BEGIN_TRY` expects it.
- *     2) Increase clarity and reduce overhead found with `TEST_ERROR`.
- *        e.g., "if(somefunction(arg, arg2) < 0) TEST_ERROR:"
- *        requires reading of entire line to know whether this if/call is
- *        part of the test setup, test operation, or a test unto itself.
- *     3) Provide testing macros with optional user-supplied failure message;
- *        if not supplied (NULL), generate comparison output in the spirit of
- *        test-driven development. E.g., "expected 5 but was -3"
- *        User messages clarify test's purpose in code, encouraging description
- *        without relying on comments.
- *     4) Configurable expected-actual order in generated comparison strings.
- *        Some prefer `VERIFY(expected, actual)`, others
- *        `VERIFY(actual, expected)`. Provide preprocessor ifdef switch
- *        to satifsy both parties, assuming one paradigm per test file.
- *        (One could #undef and redefine the flag through the file as desired,
- *         but _why_.)
- *
- *     Provided as courtesy, per consideration for inclusion in the library
- *     proper.
- *
- *     Macros:
- *
- *         JSVERIFY_EXP_ACT - ifdef flag, configures comparison order
- *         FAIL_IF()        - check condition
- *         FAIL_UNLESS()    - check _not_ condition
- *         JSVERIFY()       - long-int equality check; prints reason/comparison
- *         JSVERIFY_NOT()   - long-int inequality check; prints
- *         JSVERIFY_STR()   - string equality check; prints

+ *
+ * FILE-LOCAL TESTING MACROS
+ *
+ * Purpose:
+ *
+ *     1) Upon test failure, goto-jump to single-location teardown in test
+ *        function. E.g., `error:` (consistency with HDF corpus) or
+ *        `failed:` (reflects purpose).
+ *            >>> using "error", in part because `H5E_BEGIN_TRY` expects it.
+ *     2) Increase clarity and reduce overhead found with `TEST_ERROR`.
+ *        e.g., "if(somefunction(arg, arg2) < 0) TEST_ERROR:"
+ *        requires reading of entire line to know whether this if/call is
+ *        part of the test setup, test operation, or a test unto itself.
+ *     3) Provide testing macros with optional user-supplied failure message;
+ *        if not supplied (NULL), generate comparison output in the spirit of
+ *        test-driven development. E.g., "expected 5 but was -3"
+ *        User messages clarify test's purpose in code, encouraging description
+ *        without relying on comments.
+ *     4) Configurable expected-actual order in generated comparison strings.
+ *        Some prefer `VERIFY(expected, actual)`, others

+ *         JSVERIFY_NOT()   - long-int inequality check; prints

+ *                + "dataset" (dset_id)
+ *                + if n > 1 then include "dataset2" (dset_id2)
+ *                + if n > 2 then include "dataset3" (dset_id3)
+ *                + file (file_id)
+ *

- *
- * FILE-LOCAL TESTING MACROS
- *
- * Purpose:
- *
- *     1) Upon test failure, goto-jump to single-location teardown in test
- *        function. E.g., `error:` (consistency with HDF corpus) or
- *        `failed:` (reflects purpose).
- *            >>> using "error", in part because `H5E_BEGIN_TRY` expects it.
- *     2) Increase clarity and reduce overhead found with `TEST_ERROR`.
- *        e.g., "if(somefunction(arg, arg2) < 0) TEST_ERROR:"
- *        requires reading of entire line to know whether this if/call is
- *        part of the test setup, test operation, or a test unto itself.
- *     3) Provide testing macros with optional user-supplied failure message;
- *        if not supplied (NULL), generate comparison output in the spirit of
- *        test-driven development. E.g., "expected 5 but was -3"
- *        User messages clarify test's purpose in code, encouraging description
- *        without relying on comments.
- *     4) Configurable expected-actual order in generated comparison strings.
- *        Some prefer `VERIFY(expected, actual)`, others
- *        `VERIFY(actual, expected)`. Provide preprocessor ifdef switch
- *        to satifsy both parties, assuming one paradigm per test file.
- *        (One could #undef and redefine the flag through the file as desired,
- *         but _why_.)
- *
- *     Provided as courtesy, per consideration for inclusion in the library
- *     proper.
- *
- *     Macros:
- *
- *         JSVERIFY_EXP_ACT - ifdef flag, configures comparison order
- *         FAIL_IF()        - check condition
- *         FAIL_UNLESS()    - check _not_ condition
- *         JSVERIFY()       - long-int equality check; prints reason/comparison
- *         JSVERIFY_NOT()   - long-int inequality check; prints
- *         JSVERIFY_STR()   - string equality check; prints
