+  Background:
+    Given a graph with space named "nba"
+
+  Scenario: crash double delete expr
+    When executing query:
+      """
+      match (v.player) return v;
+      """
+    Then a SyntaxError should be raised at runtime:  Invalid node pattern near `(v.player)'
+    When executing query:
+      """
+      match (v.player) return v;
+      """
