Thanks for the help.

But in the following C++ code, is it possible to make 
treesit-beginning/end-of-defun behaves the same as c++-mode ?

,----
| class Test       // LINE_D
| {
| public:
|     Test(int i)  // LINE_C
|     {
|         SWITCH(i)
|         {
|             CASE(A)
|             {
|                 ;
|             }
|             CASE(B) // LINE_B
|             {
|                 ; // LINE_A
|             }
|         }
|     }
| };
`----

When cursor is at LINE_A, if in c++-mode, `C-M-a` moves cursor to LINE_C, which 
is correct.
But in c++-ts-mode, behaviour of  `C-M-a` is wrong:
if treesit-defun-tactic is nested, it moves to line_B, and if 
treesit-defun-tactic is top-level,
it moves to LINE_D. Both of them are actually wrong...
