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

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

351 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
353 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

475 an eval to trap errors) and if it exists, use POSIX::getcwd to
476 find the working directory. If it doesn't exist, go back to the

510 for all its children in some situations during parallel builds.
512 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
514 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
515 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
516 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some
517 variables are leaking out beyond the tests they are intended for.

539 * scripts/functions/shell: New test suite for the shell function.
541 2005-06-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>

615 2005-03-03 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
617 * scripts/features/se_implicit: Add a test for stem
618 termination bug. Add a test for stem triple-expansion bug.
620 * scripts/features/se_statpat: Add a test for stem
621 triple-expansion bug.
623 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Change test #4 to reflect
624 new way empty prerequisite list is handled.
627 2005-03-01 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
629 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Add a test for
632 2005-02-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
634 * scripts/options/dash-q: Add a test for Savannah bug # 7144.
636 * scripts/options/symlinks: New file to test checking of symlink
637 timestamps. Can't use filename dash-L because it conflicts with
638 dash-l on case-insensitive filesystems.
640 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST, scripts/variables/MFILE_LIST:
641 Rename MAKEFILE_LIST test to MFILE_LIST, for systems that need 8.3
644 2005-02-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
646 * scripts/variables/DEFAULT_TARGET: Test the .DEFAULT_TARGET
649 2005-02-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
651 * scripts/features/se_explicit: Test the second expansion in
653 * scripts/features/se_implicit: Test the second expansion in
655 * scripts/features/se_statpat: Test the second expansion in
656 static pattern rules.
657 * scripts/variables/automatic: Fix to work with the second
660 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test for bug #12091.
662 2005-02-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
664 * scripts/functions/eval: Check that eval of targets within
665 command scripts fails. See Savannah bug # 12124.
667 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
669 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
670 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes
671 to slashes and all CRLF to LF. This helps on DOS/Windows systems.
673 2005-02-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
675 * scripts/features/recursion: Test command line variable settings:
676 only one instance of a given variable should be provided.
678 2004-11-30 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
680 * tests/scripts/functions/abspath: New file: test `abspath'
683 * tests/scripts/functions/realpath: New file: test `realpath'
686 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
688 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
689 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
691 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
692 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
694 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
696 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
698 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
700 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test simple/recursive
703 2004-09-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
705 * scripts/features/include: Test dontcare flag inheritance
706 when rebuilding makefiles.
708 2004-09-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
710 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test exported variables.
712 2004-09-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
714 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Don't add newlines to the
715 makestring or answer if they are completely empty.
717 * scripts/features/patternrules: Rename from implicit_prereq_eval.
719 * scripts/test_template: Rework the template.
721 2004-09-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
723 * run_make_tests.pl: Change `#!/usr/local/bin/perl' to be
724 `#!/usr/bin/env perl'.
726 * scripts/features/implicit_prereq_eval: Test implicit rule
727 prerequisite evaluation code.
729 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
731 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
732 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
733 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
735 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
736 interacting with define/endef variables.
738 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
740 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
741 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
742 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
744 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
746 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
747 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of
748 individual tests, and report both sets of numbers.
750 2004-02-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
752 * scripts/functions/origin: Set our own environment variable
753 rather than relying on $HOME.
755 2004-01-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
757 * scripts/features/conditionals: Test arguments to ifn?def which
758 contain whitespace (such as a function that is evaluated). Bug
761 2004-01-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
763 * scripts/features/order_only: Test order-only prerequisites in
764 pattern rules (patch #2349).
766 2003-11-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
768 * scripts/functions/if: Test if on conditionals with trailing
769 whitespace--bug #5798.
771 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
773 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
775 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
776 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
778 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
780 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
781 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
784 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
786 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
787 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
789 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
791 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
792 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
793 length). Tests patch # 1022.
795 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
796 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
798 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
799 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
801 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
803 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
806 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
808 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
809 conditionals (Bug #1516).
811 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
813 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
814 with no commands (Bug #1418).
816 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
818 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
819 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
821 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
823 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
826 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
828 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
829 characters in targets and prerequisites.
831 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
833 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
834 variables in a single command.
836 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
838 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
839 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
840 double-colon targets.
842 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
844 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
847 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
848 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
850 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
851 in ifdef conditionals.
853 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
855 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
857 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
858 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
859 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
860 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
861 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
863 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
864 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
866 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
867 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
868 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
870 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
872 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
874 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
877 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
878 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
879 for now as it's not yet supported.
881 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
883 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
885 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
887 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
888 -valgrind option to the test suite.
889 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
890 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
891 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
892 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
894 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
896 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
899 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
900 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
901 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
902 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
903 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
905 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
907 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
909 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
911 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
913 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
915 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
916 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
917 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
919 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
921 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
922 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
924 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
926 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
927 directories in the script directories.
929 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
931 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
932 one of the command lines is quiet.
934 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
936 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
939 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
941 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
942 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
944 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
946 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
947 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
950 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
952 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
953 expect a warning message from Make.
955 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
957 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
958 jobs are not supported.
960 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
962 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
964 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
966 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
968 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
970 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
971 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
972 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
974 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
976 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
977 parallel jobs aren't supported.
979 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
981 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
983 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
985 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
986 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
987 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
989 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
990 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
991 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
992 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
994 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
995 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
996 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
997 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
998 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
1000 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
1001 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
1003 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1005 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
1006 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
1008 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1010 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
1011 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
1014 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1016 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
1017 in a target name (PR/1586).
1019 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1021 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
1022 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
1024 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1026 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
1027 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
1028 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
1030 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
1031 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
1032 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
1033 1 for other systems.
1034 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
1035 instead of hardcoding 2.
1036 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
1037 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
1039 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1041 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
1042 are really directories.
1044 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1046 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
1047 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
1050 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1052 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
1053 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
1054 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
1056 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1058 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
1059 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
1060 intermediate possibilities.
1062 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1064 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
1065 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
1066 to make sure they're handled serially.
1068 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1070 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
1071 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
1073 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
1074 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
1076 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1078 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
1079 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
1082 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1084 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
1085 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
1087 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1089 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
1090 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
1092 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1094 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
1095 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
1096 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
1097 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1099 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1101 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
1102 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
1103 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
1104 as many "sleep" commands.
1106 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1108 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
1109 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
1110 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
1111 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
1112 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
1113 general, actually... where practical.
1114 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
1115 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1117 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
1118 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
1119 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
1121 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
1122 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
1123 happens before the command line processing).
1124 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
1125 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
1126 the VOS stuff here, too.
1127 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
1128 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
1131 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
1132 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
1133 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
1135 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1137 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
1138 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
1139 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
1140 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
1141 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
1142 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
1143 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
1144 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
1145 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
1146 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
1147 time as it sees fit.
1149 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
1150 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
1151 to force the order we want.
1153 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1154 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1155 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1156 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1158 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1159 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1160 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1161 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1162 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1164 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1166 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
