126 * scripts/functions/eval: Update error message for command -> recipe.
128 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Allow the answer to be a regex,
129 if surrounded by '/'.
130 * scripts/misc/close_stdout: Use a regex for the answer, since

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

181 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
183 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

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

219 guarantees that we have to merge variable lists of different
220 sizes. Tests for Savannah bug #15757.
222 2006-02-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

299 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): If we can't get the value
300 of $(MAKE) from make, then fatal immediately.
302 2005-08-31 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
304 * run_make_tests.pl (get_this_pwd): Require the POSIX module (in
305 an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
306 find the working directory. If it doesn't exist, go back to the
307 previous methods. This tries to be more accurate on Windows
310 2005-08-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
312 * scripts/functions/abspath: Add some text to the error messages
313 to get a better idea of what's wrong. Make warnings instead of

340 for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
342 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
344 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
345 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
346 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some

365 to be sure it will be considered updated when it's remade.
367 2005-06-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
369 * scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.
371 2005-06-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

497 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
499 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
500 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes

617 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
619 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
621 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
622 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
623 length). Tests patch # 1022.
625 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
626 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
628 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
629 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
631 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
633 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
636 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
638 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
639 conditionals (Bug #1516).
641 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
643 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
644 with no commands (Bug #1418).
646 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
648 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
649 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
651 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
653 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
656 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
658 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
659 characters in targets and prerequisites.
661 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
663 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
664 variables in a single command.
666 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
668 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
669 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
670 double-colon targets.
672 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
674 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
677 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
678 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
680 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
681 in ifdef conditionals.
683 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
685 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
687 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
688 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
689 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
690 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
691 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
693 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
694 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
696 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
697 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
698 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
700 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
702 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
704 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
707 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
708 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
709 for now as it's not yet supported.
711 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
713 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
715 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
717 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
718 -valgrind option to the test suite.
719 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
720 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
721 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
722 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
724 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
726 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
729 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
730 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
731 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
732 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
733 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
735 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
737 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
739 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
741 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
743 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
745 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
746 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
747 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
749 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
751 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
752 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
754 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
756 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
757 directories in the script directories.
759 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
761 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
762 one of the command lines is quiet.
764 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
766 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
769 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
771 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
772 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
774 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
776 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
777 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
780 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
782 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
783 expect a warning message from Make.
785 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
787 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
788 jobs are not supported.
790 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
792 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
794 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
796 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
798 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
800 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
801 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
802 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
804 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
806 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
807 parallel jobs aren't supported.
809 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
811 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
813 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
815 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
816 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
817 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
819 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
820 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
821 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
822 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
824 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
825 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
826 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
827 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
828 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
830 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
831 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
833 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
835 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
836 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
838 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
840 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
841 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
844 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
846 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
847 in a target name (PR/1586).
849 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
851 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
852 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
854 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
856 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
857 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
858 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
860 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
861 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
862 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
864 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
865 instead of hardcoding 2.
866 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
867 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
869 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
871 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
872 are really directories.
874 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
876 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
877 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
880 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
882 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
883 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
884 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
886 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
888 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
889 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
890 intermediate possibilities.
892 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
894 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
895 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
896 to make sure they're handled serially.
898 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
900 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
901 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
903 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
904 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
906 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
908 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
909 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
912 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
914 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
915 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
917 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
919 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
920 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
922 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
924 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
925 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
926 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
927 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
929 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
931 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
932 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
933 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
934 as many "sleep" commands.
936 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
938 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
939 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
940 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
941 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
942 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
943 general, actually... where practical.
944 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
945 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
947 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
948 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
949 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
951 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
952 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
953 happens before the command line processing).
954 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
955 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
956 the VOS stuff here, too.
957 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
958 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
961 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
962 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
963 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
965 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
967 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
968 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
969 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
970 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
971 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
972 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
973 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
974 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
975 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
976 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
979 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
980 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
981 to force the order we want.
983 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
984 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
985 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
986 the environment rather than require specific versions.
988 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
989 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
990 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
991 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
992 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
994 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
996 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
