242 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Allow the answer to be a regex,
243 if surrounded by '/'.

268 Icarus Sparry <savannah@icarus.freeuk.com>
270 * test_driver.pl (_run_command): New function: this is called by

458 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
459 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment

614 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes
615 to slashes and all CRLF to LF. This helps on DOS/Windows systems.
617 2005-02-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
619 * scripts/features/recursion: Test command line variable settings:
620 only one instance of a given variable should be provided.
622 2004-11-30 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
624 * tests/scripts/functions/abspath: New file: test `abspath'
627 * tests/scripts/functions/realpath: New file: test `realpath'
630 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
632 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
633 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
635 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
636 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
638 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
640 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
642 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
644 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test simple/recursive
647 2004-09-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
649 * scripts/features/include: Test dontcare flag inheritance
650 when rebuilding makefiles.
652 2004-09-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
654 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test exported variables.
656 2004-09-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
658 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Don't add newlines to the
659 makestring or answer if they are completely empty.
661 * scripts/features/patternrules: Rename from implicit_prereq_eval.
663 * scripts/test_template: Rework the template.
665 2004-09-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
667 * run_make_tests.pl: Change `#!/usr/local/bin/perl' to be
668 `#!/usr/bin/env perl'.
670 * scripts/features/implicit_prereq_eval: Test implicit rule
671 prerequisite evaluation code.
673 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
675 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
676 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
677 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
679 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
680 interacting with define/endef variables.
682 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
684 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
685 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
686 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
688 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
690 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
691 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of
692 individual tests, and report both sets of numbers.
694 2004-02-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
696 * scripts/functions/origin: Set our own environment variable
697 rather than relying on $HOME.
699 2004-01-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
701 * scripts/features/conditionals: Test arguments to ifn?def which
702 contain whitespace (such as a function that is evaluated). Bug
705 2004-01-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
707 * scripts/features/order_only: Test order-only prerequisites in
708 pattern rules (patch #2349).
710 2003-11-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
712 * scripts/functions/if: Test if on conditionals with trailing
713 whitespace--bug #5798.
715 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
717 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
719 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
720 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
722 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
724 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
725 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
728 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
730 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
731 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
733 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
735 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
736 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
737 length). Tests patch # 1022.
739 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
740 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
742 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
743 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
745 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
747 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
750 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
752 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
753 conditionals (Bug #1516).
755 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
757 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
758 with no commands (Bug #1418).
760 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
762 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
763 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
765 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
767 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
770 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
772 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
773 characters in targets and prerequisites.
775 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
777 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
778 variables in a single command.
780 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
782 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
783 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
784 double-colon targets.
786 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
788 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
791 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
792 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
794 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
795 in ifdef conditionals.
797 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
799 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
801 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
802 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
803 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
804 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
805 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
807 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
808 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
810 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
811 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
812 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
814 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
816 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
818 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
821 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
822 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
823 for now as it's not yet supported.
825 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
827 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
829 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
831 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
832 -valgrind option to the test suite.
833 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
834 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
835 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
836 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
838 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
840 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
843 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
844 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
845 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
846 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
847 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
849 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
851 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
853 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
855 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
857 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
859 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
860 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
861 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
863 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
865 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
866 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
868 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
870 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
871 directories in the script directories.
873 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
875 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
876 one of the command lines is quiet.
878 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
880 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
883 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
885 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
886 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
888 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
890 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
891 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
894 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
896 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
897 expect a warning message from Make.
899 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
901 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
902 jobs are not supported.
904 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
906 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
908 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
910 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
912 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
914 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
915 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
916 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
918 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
920 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
921 parallel jobs aren't supported.
923 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
925 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
927 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
929 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
930 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
931 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
933 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
934 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
935 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
936 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
938 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
939 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
940 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
941 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
942 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
944 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
945 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
947 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
949 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
950 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
952 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
954 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
955 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
958 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
960 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
961 in a target name (PR/1586).
963 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
965 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
966 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
968 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
970 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
971 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
972 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
974 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
975 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
976 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
978 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
979 instead of hardcoding 2.
980 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
981 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
983 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
985 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
986 are really directories.
988 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
990 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
991 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
994 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
996 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
997 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
998 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
1000 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1002 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
1003 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
1004 intermediate possibilities.
1006 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1008 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
1009 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
1010 to make sure they're handled serially.
1012 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1014 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
1015 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
1017 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
1018 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
1020 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1022 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
1023 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
1026 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1028 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
1029 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
1031 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1033 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
1034 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
1036 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1038 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
1039 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
1040 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
1041 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1043 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1045 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
1046 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
1047 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
1048 as many "sleep" commands.
1050 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1052 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
1053 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
1054 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
1055 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
1056 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
1057 general, actually... where practical.
1058 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
1059 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1061 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
1062 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
1063 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
1065 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
1066 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
1067 happens before the command line processing).
1068 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
1069 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
1070 the VOS stuff here, too.
1071 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
1072 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
1075 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
1076 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
1077 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
1079 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1081 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
1082 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
1083 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
1084 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
1085 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
1086 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
1087 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
1088 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
1089 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
1090 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
1091 time as it sees fit.
1093 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
1094 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
1095 to force the order we want.
1097 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1098 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1099 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1100 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1102 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1103 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1104 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1105 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1106 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1108 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1110 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
1113 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
