226 * scripts/functions/eval: Update error message for command -> recipe.
228 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Allow the answer to be a regex,
229 if surrounded by '/'.
230 * scripts/misc/close_stdout: Use a regex for the answer, since
231 sometimes the error will have a description and sometimes it won't.

253 Original idea and patch for a single-test version provided by
254 Icarus Sparry <savannah@icarus.freeuk.com>
256 * test_driver.pl (_run_command): New function: this is called by
257 other functions to actually run a command. Before we run it,
258 install a SIGALRM handler and set up a timer to go off in the
259 future (default is 5s; this can be overridden by individual tests).
260 (run_command): Call it.
261 (run_command_with_output): Call it.

281 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
283 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple
284 initial slashes on Windows: those paths mean something different.

301 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): Set the status properly even
302 when a test fails to execute. Fixes Savannah bug #15942.
304 * scripts/functions/foreach: Use a different environment variable

318 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test a complex construction which
319 guarantees that we have to merge variable lists of different
320 sizes. Tests for Savannah bug #15757.
322 2006-02-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

399 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): If we can't get the value
400 of $(MAKE) from make, then fatal immediately.
402 2005-08-31 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
404 * run_make_tests.pl (get_this_pwd): Require the POSIX module (in
405 an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
406 find the working directory. If it doesn't exist, go back to the
407 previous methods. This tries to be more accurate on Windows
410 2005-08-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
412 * scripts/functions/abspath: Add some text to the error messages
413 to get a better idea of what's wrong. Make warnings instead of
416 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Don't use "test", which is

420 2005-08-25 Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

440 for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
442 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
444 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
445 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
446 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some
447 variables are leaking out beyond the tests they are intended for.
448 Create an %extraENV hash tests can set to add more env. vars.
449 * tests/scripts/features/export: Change to use %extraENV.

465 to be sure it will be considered updated when it's remade.
467 2005-06-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
469 * scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.
471 2005-06-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

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

595 command scripts fails. See Savannah bug # 12124.
597 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
599 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
600 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes

616 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
618 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
619 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
621 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
622 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
624 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
626 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
628 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
630 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test simple/recursive
633 2004-09-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
635 * scripts/features/include: Test dontcare flag inheritance
636 when rebuilding makefiles.
638 2004-09-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
640 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test exported variables.
642 2004-09-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
644 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Don't add newlines to the
645 makestring or answer if they are completely empty.
647 * scripts/features/patternrules: Rename from implicit_prereq_eval.
649 * scripts/test_template: Rework the template.
651 2004-09-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
653 * run_make_tests.pl: Change `#!/usr/local/bin/perl' to be
654 `#!/usr/bin/env perl'.
656 * scripts/features/implicit_prereq_eval: Test implicit rule
657 prerequisite evaluation code.
659 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
661 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
662 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
663 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
665 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
666 interacting with define/endef variables.
668 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
670 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
671 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
672 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
674 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
676 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
677 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of
678 individual tests, and report both sets of numbers.
680 2004-02-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
682 * scripts/functions/origin: Set our own environment variable
683 rather than relying on $HOME.
685 2004-01-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
687 * scripts/features/conditionals: Test arguments to ifn?def which
688 contain whitespace (such as a function that is evaluated). Bug
691 2004-01-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
693 * scripts/features/order_only: Test order-only prerequisites in
694 pattern rules (patch #2349).
696 2003-11-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
698 * scripts/functions/if: Test if on conditionals with trailing
699 whitespace--bug #5798.
701 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
703 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
705 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
706 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
708 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
710 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
711 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
714 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
716 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
717 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
719 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
721 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
722 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
723 length). Tests patch # 1022.
725 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
726 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
728 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
729 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
731 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
733 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
736 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
738 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
739 conditionals (Bug #1516).
741 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
743 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
744 with no commands (Bug #1418).
746 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
748 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
749 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
751 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
753 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
756 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
758 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
759 characters in targets and prerequisites.
761 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
763 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
764 variables in a single command.
766 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
768 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
769 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
770 double-colon targets.
772 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
774 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
777 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
778 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
780 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
781 in ifdef conditionals.
783 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
785 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
787 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
788 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
789 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
790 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
791 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
793 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
794 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
796 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
797 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
798 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
800 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
802 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
804 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
807 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
808 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
809 for now as it's not yet supported.
811 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
813 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
815 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
817 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
818 -valgrind option to the test suite.
819 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
820 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
821 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
822 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
824 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
826 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
829 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
830 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
831 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
832 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
833 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
835 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
837 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
839 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
841 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
843 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
845 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
846 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
847 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
849 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
851 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
852 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
854 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
856 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
857 directories in the script directories.
859 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
861 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
862 one of the command lines is quiet.
864 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
866 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
869 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
871 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
872 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
874 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
876 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
877 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
880 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
882 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
883 expect a warning message from Make.
885 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
887 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
888 jobs are not supported.
890 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
892 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
894 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
896 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
898 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
900 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
901 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
902 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
904 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
906 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
907 parallel jobs aren't supported.
909 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
911 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
913 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
915 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
916 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
917 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
919 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
920 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
921 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
922 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
924 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
925 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
926 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
927 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
928 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
930 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
931 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
933 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
935 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
936 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
938 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
940 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
941 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
944 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
946 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
947 in a target name (PR/1586).
949 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
951 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
952 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
954 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
956 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
957 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
958 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
960 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
961 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
962 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
964 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
965 instead of hardcoding 2.
966 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
967 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
969 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
971 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
972 are really directories.
974 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
976 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
977 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
980 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
982 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
983 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
984 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
986 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
988 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
989 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
990 intermediate possibilities.
992 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
994 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
995 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
996 to make sure they're handled serially.
998 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1000 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
1001 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
1003 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
1004 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
1006 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1008 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
1009 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
1012 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1014 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
1015 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
1017 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1019 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
1020 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
1022 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1024 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
1025 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
1026 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
1027 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1029 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1031 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
1032 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
1033 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
1034 as many "sleep" commands.
1036 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1038 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
1039 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
1040 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
1041 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
1042 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
1043 general, actually... where practical.
1044 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
1045 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1047 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
1048 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
1049 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
1051 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
1052 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
1053 happens before the command line processing).
1054 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
1055 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
1056 the VOS stuff here, too.
1057 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
1058 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
1061 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
1062 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
1063 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
1065 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1067 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
1068 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
1069 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
1070 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
1071 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
1072 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
1073 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
1074 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
1075 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
1076 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
1077 time as it sees fit.
1079 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
1080 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
1081 to force the order we want.
1083 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1084 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1085 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1086 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1088 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1089 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1090 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1091 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1092 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1094 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1096 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
