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

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

337 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
339 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

498 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
500 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
501 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
502 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some

609 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Change test #4 to reflect
610 new way empty prerequisite list is handled.
613 2005-03-01 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
615 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Add a test for
618 2005-02-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
620 * scripts/options/dash-q: Add a test for Savannah bug # 7144.
622 * scripts/options/symlinks: New file to test checking of symlink
623 timestamps. Can't use filename dash-L because it conflicts with
624 dash-l on case-insensitive filesystems.
626 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST, scripts/variables/MFILE_LIST:
627 Rename MAKEFILE_LIST test to MFILE_LIST, for systems that need 8.3
630 2005-02-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
632 * scripts/variables/DEFAULT_TARGET: Test the .DEFAULT_TARGET
635 2005-02-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
637 * scripts/features/se_explicit: Test the second expansion in
639 * scripts/features/se_implicit: Test the second expansion in
641 * scripts/features/se_statpat: Test the second expansion in
642 static pattern rules.
643 * scripts/variables/automatic: Fix to work with the second
646 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test for bug #12091.
648 2005-02-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
650 * scripts/functions/eval: Check that eval of targets within
651 command scripts fails. See Savannah bug # 12124.
653 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
655 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
656 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes
657 to slashes and all CRLF to LF. This helps on DOS/Windows systems.
659 2005-02-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
661 * scripts/features/recursion: Test command line variable settings:
662 only one instance of a given variable should be provided.
664 2004-11-30 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
666 * tests/scripts/functions/abspath: New file: test `abspath'
669 * tests/scripts/functions/realpath: New file: test `realpath'
672 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
674 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
675 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
677 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
678 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
680 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
682 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
684 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
686 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test simple/recursive
689 2004-09-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
691 * scripts/features/include: Test dontcare flag inheritance
692 when rebuilding makefiles.
694 2004-09-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
696 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test exported variables.
698 2004-09-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
700 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Don't add newlines to the
701 makestring or answer if they are completely empty.
703 * scripts/features/patternrules: Rename from implicit_prereq_eval.
705 * scripts/test_template: Rework the template.
707 2004-09-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
709 * run_make_tests.pl: Change `#!/usr/local/bin/perl' to be
710 `#!/usr/bin/env perl'.
712 * scripts/features/implicit_prereq_eval: Test implicit rule
713 prerequisite evaluation code.
715 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
717 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
718 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
719 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
721 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
722 interacting with define/endef variables.
724 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
726 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
727 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
728 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
730 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
732 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
733 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of
734 individual tests, and report both sets of numbers.
736 2004-02-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
738 * scripts/functions/origin: Set our own environment variable
739 rather than relying on $HOME.
741 2004-01-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
743 * scripts/features/conditionals: Test arguments to ifn?def which
744 contain whitespace (such as a function that is evaluated). Bug
747 2004-01-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
749 * scripts/features/order_only: Test order-only prerequisites in
750 pattern rules (patch #2349).
752 2003-11-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
754 * scripts/functions/if: Test if on conditionals with trailing
755 whitespace--bug #5798.
757 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
759 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
761 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
762 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
764 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
766 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
767 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
770 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
772 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
773 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
775 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
777 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
778 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
779 length). Tests patch # 1022.
781 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
782 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
784 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
785 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
787 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
789 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
792 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
794 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
795 conditionals (Bug #1516).
797 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
799 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
800 with no commands (Bug #1418).
802 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
804 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
805 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
807 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
809 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
812 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
814 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
815 characters in targets and prerequisites.
817 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
819 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
820 variables in a single command.
822 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
824 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
825 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
826 double-colon targets.
828 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
830 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
833 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
834 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
836 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
837 in ifdef conditionals.
839 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
841 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
843 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
844 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
845 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
846 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
847 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
849 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
850 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
852 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
853 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
854 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
856 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
858 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
860 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
863 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
864 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
865 for now as it's not yet supported.
867 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
869 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
871 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
873 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
874 -valgrind option to the test suite.
875 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
876 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
877 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
878 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
880 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
882 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
885 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
886 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
887 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
888 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
889 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
891 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
893 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
895 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
897 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
899 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
901 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
902 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
903 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
905 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
907 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
908 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
910 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
912 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
913 directories in the script directories.
915 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
917 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
918 one of the command lines is quiet.
920 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
922 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
925 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
927 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
928 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
930 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
932 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
933 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
936 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
938 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
939 expect a warning message from Make.
941 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
943 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
944 jobs are not supported.
946 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
948 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
950 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
952 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
954 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
956 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
957 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
958 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
960 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
962 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
963 parallel jobs aren't supported.
965 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
967 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
969 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
971 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
972 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
973 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
975 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
976 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
977 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
978 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
980 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
981 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
982 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
983 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
984 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
986 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
987 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
989 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
991 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
992 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
994 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
996 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
997 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
1000 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1002 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
1003 in a target name (PR/1586).
1005 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1007 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
1008 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
1010 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1012 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
1013 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
1014 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
1016 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
1017 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
1018 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
1019 1 for other systems.
1020 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
1021 instead of hardcoding 2.
1022 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
1023 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
1025 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1027 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
1028 are really directories.
1030 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1032 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
1033 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
1036 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1038 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
1039 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
1040 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
1042 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1044 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
1045 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
1046 intermediate possibilities.
1048 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1050 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
1051 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
1052 to make sure they're handled serially.
1054 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1056 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
1057 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
1059 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
1060 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
1062 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1064 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
1065 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
1068 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1070 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
1071 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
1073 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1075 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
1076 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
1078 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1080 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
1081 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
1082 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
1083 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1085 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1087 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
1088 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
1089 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
1090 as many "sleep" commands.
1092 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1094 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
1095 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
1096 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
1097 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
1098 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
1099 general, actually... where practical.
1100 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
1101 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1103 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
1104 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
1105 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
1107 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
1108 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
1109 happens before the command line processing).
1110 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
1111 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
1112 the VOS stuff here, too.
1113 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
1114 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
1117 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
1118 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
1119 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
1121 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1123 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
1124 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
1125 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
1126 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
1127 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
1128 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
1129 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
1130 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
1131 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
1132 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
1133 time as it sees fit.
1135 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
1136 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
1137 to force the order we want.
1139 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1140 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1141 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1142 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1144 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1145 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1146 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1147 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1148 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1150 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1152 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
