236 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Allow the answer to be a regex,
237 if surrounded by '/'.
238 * scripts/misc/close_stdout: Use a regex for the answer, since

261 Original idea and patch for a single-test version provided by
262 Icarus Sparry <savannah@icarus.freeuk.com>
264 * test_driver.pl (_run_command): New function: this is called by
265 other functions to actually run a command. Before we run it,

289 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
291 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

310 when a test fails to execute. Fixes Savannah bug #15942.
312 * scripts/functions/foreach: Use a different environment variable

407 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): If we can't get the value
408 of $(MAKE) from make, then fatal immediately.
410 2005-08-31 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
412 * run_make_tests.pl (get_this_pwd): Require the POSIX module (in
413 an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
414 find the working directory. If it doesn't exist, go back to the
415 previous methods. This tries to be more accurate on Windows
418 2005-08-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
420 * scripts/functions/abspath: Add some text to the error messages
421 to get a better idea of what's wrong. Make warnings instead of

448 for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
450 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
452 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
453 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
454 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some
455 variables are leaking out beyond the tests they are intended for.
456 Create an %extraENV hash tests can set to add more env. vars.

473 to be sure it will be considered updated when it's remade.
475 2005-06-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
477 * scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.

574 * scripts/options/symlinks: New file to test checking of symlink
575 timestamps. Can't use filename dash-L because it conflicts with
576 dash-l on case-insensitive filesystems.
578 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST, scripts/variables/MFILE_LIST:
579 Rename MAKEFILE_LIST test to MFILE_LIST, for systems that need 8.3

605 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
607 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
608 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes

611 2005-02-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
613 * scripts/features/recursion: Test command line variable settings:
614 only one instance of a given variable should be provided.
616 2004-11-30 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
618 * tests/scripts/functions/abspath: New file: test `abspath'
621 * tests/scripts/functions/realpath: New file: test `realpath'
624 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
626 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
627 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
629 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
630 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
632 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
634 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
636 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
638 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test simple/recursive
641 2004-09-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
643 * scripts/features/include: Test dontcare flag inheritance
644 when rebuilding makefiles.
646 2004-09-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
648 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test exported variables.
650 2004-09-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
652 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Don't add newlines to the
653 makestring or answer if they are completely empty.
655 * scripts/features/patternrules: Rename from implicit_prereq_eval.
657 * scripts/test_template: Rework the template.
659 2004-09-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
661 * run_make_tests.pl: Change `#!/usr/local/bin/perl' to be
662 `#!/usr/bin/env perl'.
664 * scripts/features/implicit_prereq_eval: Test implicit rule
665 prerequisite evaluation code.
667 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
669 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
670 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
671 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
673 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
674 interacting with define/endef variables.
676 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
678 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
679 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
680 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
682 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
684 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
685 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of
686 individual tests, and report both sets of numbers.
688 2004-02-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
690 * scripts/functions/origin: Set our own environment variable
691 rather than relying on $HOME.
693 2004-01-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
695 * scripts/features/conditionals: Test arguments to ifn?def which
696 contain whitespace (such as a function that is evaluated). Bug
699 2004-01-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
701 * scripts/features/order_only: Test order-only prerequisites in
702 pattern rules (patch #2349).
704 2003-11-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
706 * scripts/functions/if: Test if on conditionals with trailing
707 whitespace--bug #5798.
709 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
711 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
713 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
714 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
716 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
718 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
719 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
722 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
724 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
725 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
727 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
729 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
730 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
731 length). Tests patch # 1022.
733 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
734 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
736 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
737 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
739 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
741 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
744 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
746 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
747 conditionals (Bug #1516).
749 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
751 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
752 with no commands (Bug #1418).
754 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
756 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
757 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
759 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
761 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
764 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
766 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
767 characters in targets and prerequisites.
769 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
771 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
772 variables in a single command.
774 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
776 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
777 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
778 double-colon targets.
780 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
782 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
785 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
786 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
788 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
789 in ifdef conditionals.
791 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
793 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
795 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
796 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
797 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
798 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
799 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
801 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
802 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
804 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
805 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
806 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
808 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
810 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
812 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
815 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
816 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
817 for now as it's not yet supported.
819 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
821 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
823 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
825 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
826 -valgrind option to the test suite.
827 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
828 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
829 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
830 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
832 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
834 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
837 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
838 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
839 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
840 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
841 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
843 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
845 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
847 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
849 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
851 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
853 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
854 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
855 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
857 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
859 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
860 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
862 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
864 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
865 directories in the script directories.
867 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
869 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
870 one of the command lines is quiet.
872 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
874 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
877 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
879 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
880 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
882 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
884 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
885 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
888 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
890 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
891 expect a warning message from Make.
893 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
895 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
896 jobs are not supported.
898 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
900 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
902 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
904 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
906 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
908 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
909 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
910 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
912 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
914 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
915 parallel jobs aren't supported.
917 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
919 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
921 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
923 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
924 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
925 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
927 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
928 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
929 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
930 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
932 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
933 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
934 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
935 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
936 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
938 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
939 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
941 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
943 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
944 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
946 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
948 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
949 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
952 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
954 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
955 in a target name (PR/1586).
957 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
959 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
960 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
962 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
964 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
965 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
966 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
968 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
969 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
970 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
972 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
973 instead of hardcoding 2.
974 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
975 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
977 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
979 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
980 are really directories.
982 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
984 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
985 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
988 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
990 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
991 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
992 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
994 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
996 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
997 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
998 intermediate possibilities.
1000 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1002 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
1003 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
1004 to make sure they're handled serially.
1006 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1008 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
1009 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
1011 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
1012 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
1014 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1016 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
1017 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
1020 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1022 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
1023 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
1025 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1027 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
1028 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
1030 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1032 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
1033 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
1034 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
1035 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1037 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1039 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
1040 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
1041 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
1042 as many "sleep" commands.
1044 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1046 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
1047 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
1048 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
1049 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
1050 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
1051 general, actually... where practical.
1052 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
1053 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1055 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
1056 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
1057 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
1059 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
1060 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
1061 happens before the command line processing).
1062 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
1063 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
1064 the VOS stuff here, too.
1065 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
1066 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
1069 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
1070 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
1071 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
1073 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1075 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
1076 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
1077 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
1078 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
1079 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
1080 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
1081 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
1082 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
1083 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
1084 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
1085 time as it sees fit.
1087 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
1088 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
1089 to force the order we want.
1091 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1092 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1093 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1094 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1096 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1097 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1098 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1099 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1100 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1102 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1104 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
1107 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1109 ChangeLog file for the test suite created.
