46 * scripts/functions/eval: Update error message for command -> recipe.
48 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Allow the answer to be a regex,

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

101 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
103 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple
104 initial slashes on Windows: those paths mean something different.
106 2006-03-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

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

219 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): If we can't get the value
220 of $(MAKE) from make, then fatal immediately.
222 2005-08-31 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
224 * run_make_tests.pl (get_this_pwd): Require the POSIX module (in
225 an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
226 find the working directory. If it doesn't exist, go back to the
227 previous methods. This tries to be more accurate on Windows
230 2005-08-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
232 * scripts/functions/abspath: Add some text to the error messages
233 to get a better idea of what's wrong. Make warnings instead of

260 for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
262 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
264 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
265 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
266 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some

281 * scripts/features/patternrules: False exits with different error
282 codes on different systems (for example, Linux => 1, Solaris => 255).

285 to be sure it will be considered updated when it's remade.
287 2005-06-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
289 * scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.
291 2005-06-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

417 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
419 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the

616 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
617 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
618 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
620 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
622 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
624 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
627 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
628 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
629 for now as it's not yet supported.
631 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
633 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
635 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
637 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
638 -valgrind option to the test suite.
639 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
640 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
641 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
642 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
644 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
646 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
649 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
650 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
651 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
652 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
653 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
655 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
657 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
659 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
661 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
663 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
665 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
666 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
667 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
669 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
671 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
672 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
674 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
676 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
677 directories in the script directories.
679 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
681 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
682 one of the command lines is quiet.
684 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
686 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
689 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
691 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
692 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
694 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
696 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
697 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
700 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
702 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
703 expect a warning message from Make.
705 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
707 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
708 jobs are not supported.
710 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
712 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
714 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
716 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
718 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
720 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
721 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
722 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
724 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
726 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
727 parallel jobs aren't supported.
729 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
731 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
733 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
735 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
736 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
737 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
739 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
740 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
741 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
742 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
744 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
745 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
746 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
747 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
748 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
750 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
751 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
753 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
755 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
756 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
758 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
760 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
761 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
764 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
766 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
767 in a target name (PR/1586).
769 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
771 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
772 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
774 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
776 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
777 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
778 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
780 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
781 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
782 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
784 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
785 instead of hardcoding 2.
786 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
787 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
789 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
791 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
792 are really directories.
794 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
796 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
797 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
800 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
802 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
803 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
804 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
806 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
808 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
809 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
810 intermediate possibilities.
812 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
814 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
815 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
816 to make sure they're handled serially.
818 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
820 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
821 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
823 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
824 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
826 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
828 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
829 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
832 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
834 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
835 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
837 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
839 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
840 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
842 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
844 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
845 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
846 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
847 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
849 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
851 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
852 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
853 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
854 as many "sleep" commands.
856 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
858 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
859 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
860 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
861 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
862 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
863 general, actually... where practical.
864 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
865 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
867 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
868 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
869 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
871 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
872 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
873 happens before the command line processing).
874 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
875 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
876 the VOS stuff here, too.
877 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
878 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
881 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
882 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
883 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
885 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
887 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
888 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
889 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
890 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
891 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
892 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
893 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
894 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
895 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
896 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
899 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
900 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
901 to force the order we want.
903 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
904 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
905 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
906 the environment rather than require specific versions.
908 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
909 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
910 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
911 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
912 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
914 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
916 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
