86 Original idea and patch for a single-test version provided by
87 Icarus Sparry <savannah@icarus.freeuk.com>
89 * test_driver.pl (_run_command): New function: this is called by
90 other functions to actually run a command. Before we run it,
91 install a SIGALRM handler and set up a timer to go off in the
92 future (default is 5s; this can be overridden by individual tests).

114 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
116 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

232 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): If we can't get the value
233 of $(MAKE) from make, then fatal immediately.
235 2005-08-31 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
237 * run_make_tests.pl (get_this_pwd): Require the POSIX module (in
238 an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
239 find the working directory. If it doesn't exist, go back to the
240 previous methods. This tries to be more accurate on Windows
243 2005-08-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
245 * scripts/functions/abspath: Add some text to the error messages
246 to get a better idea of what's wrong. Make warnings instead of

273 for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
275 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
277 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
278 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
279 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some

298 to be sure it will be considered updated when it's remade.
300 2005-06-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
302 * scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.

430 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

616 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
618 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
620 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
621 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
622 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
623 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
624 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
626 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
627 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
629 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
630 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
631 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
633 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
635 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
637 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
640 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
641 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
642 for now as it's not yet supported.
644 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
646 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
648 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
650 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
651 -valgrind option to the test suite.
652 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
653 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
654 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
655 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
657 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
659 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
662 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
663 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
664 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
665 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
666 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
668 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
670 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
672 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
674 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
676 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
678 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
679 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
680 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
682 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
684 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
685 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
687 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
689 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
690 directories in the script directories.
692 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
694 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
695 one of the command lines is quiet.
697 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
699 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
702 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
704 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
705 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
707 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
709 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
710 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
713 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
715 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
716 expect a warning message from Make.
718 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
720 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
721 jobs are not supported.
723 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
725 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
727 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
729 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
731 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
733 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
734 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
735 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
737 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
739 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
740 parallel jobs aren't supported.
742 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
744 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
746 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
748 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
749 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
750 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
752 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
753 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
754 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
755 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
757 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
758 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
759 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
760 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
761 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
763 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
764 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
766 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
768 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
769 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
771 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
773 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
774 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
777 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
779 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
780 in a target name (PR/1586).
782 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
784 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
785 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
787 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
789 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
790 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
791 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
793 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
794 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
795 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
797 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
798 instead of hardcoding 2.
799 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
800 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
802 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
804 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
805 are really directories.
807 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
809 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
810 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
813 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
815 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
816 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
817 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
819 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
821 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
822 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
823 intermediate possibilities.
825 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
827 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
828 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
829 to make sure they're handled serially.
831 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
833 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
834 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
836 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
837 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
839 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
841 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
842 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
845 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
847 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
848 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
850 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
852 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
853 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
855 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
857 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
858 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
859 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
860 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
862 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
864 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
865 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
866 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
867 as many "sleep" commands.
869 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
871 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
872 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
873 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
874 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
875 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
876 general, actually... where practical.
877 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
878 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
880 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
881 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
882 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
884 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
885 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
886 happens before the command line processing).
887 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
888 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
889 the VOS stuff here, too.
890 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
891 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
894 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
895 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
896 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
898 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
900 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
901 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
902 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
903 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
904 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
905 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
906 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
907 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
908 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
909 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
912 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
913 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
914 to force the order we want.
916 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
917 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
918 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
919 the environment rather than require specific versions.
921 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
922 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
923 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
924 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
925 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
927 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
929 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
