When .js files in src/mongo/shell import stuff from jstests, it can work in mongodb/mongo repo for resmoke.py tests, but it will fail when legacy mongo shell is run for performance tests in mongodb/mongo-perf because "mongo" shell is sent there as a standalone binary.
We should either support this (somehow) or by banning this via linting
To reproduce a simple example:
diff --git a/src/mongo/shell/assert.js b/src/mongo/shell/assert.js index a557388e69a..05525f3e8b5 100644 --- a/src/mongo/shell/assert.js +++ b/src/mongo/shell/assert.js @@ -1,4 +1,6 @@ import {stringdiff, colorize} from "src/mongo/shell/stringdiff.js"; +import {FeatureFlagUtil} from "jstests/libs/feature_flag_util.js";
Will cause the shell to crash on startup outside of the repository
$ (cd /tmp && /home/ubuntu/mongo/bazel-bin/install-mongo/bin/mongo --nodb)
