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

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

340 2006-04-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
342 * scripts/functions/realpath: Don't run tests with multiple

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

501 2005-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
503 * test_driver.pl: Reset the environment to a clean value every
504 time before we invoke make. I'm suspicious that the environment
505 isn't handled the same way in Windows as it is in UNIX, and some
506 variables are leaking out beyond the tests they are intended for.

610 triple-expansion bug.
612 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Change test #4 to reflect
613 new way empty prerequisite list is handled.
616 2005-03-01 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
618 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Add a test for
621 2005-02-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
623 * scripts/options/dash-q: Add a test for Savannah bug # 7144.
625 * scripts/options/symlinks: New file to test checking of symlink
626 timestamps. Can't use filename dash-L because it conflicts with
627 dash-l on case-insensitive filesystems.
629 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST, scripts/variables/MFILE_LIST:
630 Rename MAKEFILE_LIST test to MFILE_LIST, for systems that need 8.3
633 2005-02-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
635 * scripts/variables/DEFAULT_TARGET: Test the .DEFAULT_TARGET
638 2005-02-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
640 * scripts/features/se_explicit: Test the second expansion in
642 * scripts/features/se_implicit: Test the second expansion in
644 * scripts/features/se_statpat: Test the second expansion in
645 static pattern rules.
646 * scripts/variables/automatic: Fix to work with the second
649 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test for bug #12091.
651 2005-02-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
653 * scripts/functions/eval: Check that eval of targets within
654 command scripts fails. See Savannah bug # 12124.
656 2005-02-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
658 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): If a basic comparison of the
659 log and answer doesn't match, try harder: change all backslashes
660 to slashes and all CRLF to LF. This helps on DOS/Windows systems.
662 2005-02-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
664 * scripts/features/recursion: Test command line variable settings:
665 only one instance of a given variable should be provided.
667 2004-11-30 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
669 * tests/scripts/functions/abspath: New file: test `abspath'
672 * tests/scripts/functions/realpath: New file: test `realpath'
675 2004-11-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
677 * scripts/options/dash-C [WINDOWS32]: Add a test for bug #10252;
678 this doesn't really test anything useful in UNIX but...
680 * scripts/variables/SHELL: New file: test proper handling of SHELL
681 according to POSIX rules. Fixes bug #1276.
683 2004-10-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
685 * scripts/functions/word: Test $(firstword ) and $(lastword ).
687 2004-10-05 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
689 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test simple/recursive
692 2004-09-28 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
694 * scripts/features/include: Test dontcare flag inheritance
695 when rebuilding makefiles.
697 2004-09-27 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
699 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test exported variables.
701 2004-09-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
703 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Don't add newlines to the
704 makestring or answer if they are completely empty.
706 * scripts/features/patternrules: Rename from implicit_prereq_eval.
708 * scripts/test_template: Rework the template.
710 2004-09-21 Boris Kolpackov <boris@kolpackov.net>
712 * run_make_tests.pl: Change `#!/usr/local/bin/perl' to be
713 `#!/usr/bin/env perl'.
715 * scripts/features/implicit_prereq_eval: Test implicit rule
716 prerequisite evaluation code.
718 2004-09-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
720 * run_make_tests.pl (run_make_test): Enhance to allow the make
721 string to be undef: in that case it reuses the previous make
722 string. Allows multiple tests on the same makefile.
724 * scripts/variables/flavors: Add some tests for prefix characters
725 interacting with define/endef variables.
727 2004-09-20 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
729 * scripts/functions/substitution: Rewrite to use run_make_test()
730 interface, and add test for substitution failures reported by
731 Markus Mauhart <qwe123@chello.at>.
733 2004-03-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
735 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test, toplevel, compare_output): Change
736 to track both the testing categories _AND_ the number of
737 individual tests, and report both sets of numbers.
739 2004-02-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
741 * scripts/functions/origin: Set our own environment variable
742 rather than relying on $HOME.
744 2004-01-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
746 * scripts/features/conditionals: Test arguments to ifn?def which
747 contain whitespace (such as a function that is evaluated). Bug
750 2004-01-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
752 * scripts/features/order_only: Test order-only prerequisites in
753 pattern rules (patch #2349).
755 2003-11-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
757 * scripts/functions/if: Test if on conditionals with trailing
758 whitespace--bug #5798.
760 * scripts/functions/eval: Test eval in a non-file context--bug #6195.
762 2003-04-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
764 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Test multiple patterns
765 matching the same target--Bug #1405.
767 2003-04-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
769 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): A new $port_type of
770 'OS/2' for (surprise!) OS/2. Also choose a wait time of 2 seconds
773 2003-03-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
775 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Test the "global" .SECONDARY (with
776 not prerequisites)--Bug #2515.
778 2003-01-30 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
780 * scripts/features/targetvars: Test very long target-specific
781 variable definition lines (longer than the default make buffer
782 length). Tests patch # 1022.
784 * scripts/functions/eval: Test very recursive $(eval ...) calls
785 with simple variable expansion (bug #2238).
787 * scripts/functions/word: Test error handling for word and
788 wordlist functions (bug #2407).
790 2003-01-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
792 * scripts/functions/call: Test recursive argument masking (bug
795 2002-10-25 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
797 * scripts/functions/eval: Test using $(eval ...) inside
798 conditionals (Bug #1516).
800 2002-10-14 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
802 * scripts/options/dash-t: Add a test for handling -t on targets
803 with no commands (Bug #1418).
805 2002-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
807 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for exporting
808 target-specific vars (Bug #1391).
810 2002-10-05 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
812 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add tests for $$(@), $${@}, $${@D},
815 2002-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
817 * scripts/features/escape: Test handling of escaped comment
818 characters in targets and prerequisites.
820 2002-09-18 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
822 * scripts/features/export: Test export/unexport of multiple
823 variables in a single command.
825 2002-09-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
827 * scripts/features/targetvars: Tests for Bug #940: test
828 target-specific and pattern-specific variables in conjunction with
829 double-colon targets.
831 2002-09-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
833 * test_driver.pl (compare_output): Match the new format for time
836 * scripts/features/export: Created. Add tests for export/unexport
837 capabilities, including exporting/unexporting expanded variables.
839 * scripts/features/conditionals: Add a test for expanded variables
840 in ifdef conditionals.
842 2002-09-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
844 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Change touch/sleep combos to utouch
846 * scripts/features/vpathgpath: Ditto.
847 * scripts/features/vpathplus: Ditto.
848 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
849 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
850 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
852 * scripts/options/dash-t: Added a test for the -t bug fixed by
853 Henning Makholm. This test was also contributed by Henning.
855 * scripts/misc/general4: Add a test suite for obscure algorithmic
856 features of make. First test: make sure creation subdirectories
857 as prerequisites of targets works properly.
859 * scripts/misc/version: Remove this bogus test.
861 2002-08-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
863 * scripts/misc/general3: Add a test for makefiles that don't end
866 * scripts/variables/special: Create tests for the special
867 variables (.VARIABLES and .TARGETS). Comment out .TARGETS test
868 for now as it's not yet supported.
870 2002-08-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
872 * scripts/options/dash-B: Add a test for the new -B option.
874 2002-07-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
876 * run_make_tests.pl (valid_option): Add support for Valgrind. Use
877 -valgrind option to the test suite.
878 (set_more_defaults): Set up the file descriptor to capture
879 Valgrind output. We have to unset its close-on-exec flag; we
880 hardcode the value for F_SETFD (2) rather than load it; hopefully
881 this will help us avoid breaking the Windows/DOS test suite.
883 2002-07-10 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
885 * scripts/variables/automatic: Add some tests for $$@, $$(@D), and
888 * test_driver.pl (utouch): Create a new function that creates a
889 file with a specific timestamp offset. Use of this function will
890 let us avoid lots of annoying sleep() invocations in the tests
891 just to get proper timestamping, which will make the tests run a
892 lot faster. So far it's only used in the automatic test suite.
894 2002-07-09 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
896 * scripts/variables/automatic: Create a test for automatic variables.
898 2002-07-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
900 * scripts/features/order_only: Test new order-only prerequisites.
902 2002-07-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
904 * scripts/functions/eval: Test new function.
905 * scripts/functions/value: Test new function.
906 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILE_LIST: Test new variable.
908 2002-04-28 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
910 * scripts/functions/call: New test: transitive closure
911 implementation using $(call ...) to test variable recursion.
913 2002-04-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
915 * test_driver.pl (compare_dir_tree): Ignore CVS and RCS
916 directories in the script directories.
918 2001-05-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
920 * scripts/variables/flavors: Test define/endef scripts where only
921 one of the command lines is quiet.
923 2000-06-22 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
925 * scripts/options/dash-q: New file; test the -q option. Includes
928 2000-06-21 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
930 * scripts/features/targetvars: Added a test for PR/1709: allowing
931 semicolons in target-specific variable values.
933 2000-06-19 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
935 * scripts/functions/addsuffix: Test for an empty final argument.
936 Actually this bug might have happened for any function, but this
939 2000-06-17 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
941 * scripts/options/general: If parallel jobs are not supported,
942 expect a warning message from Make.
944 2000-06-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
946 * scripts/options/general: Don't try -jN with N != 1 if parallel
947 jobs are not supported.
949 2000-05-24 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
951 * scripts/options/general: Test general option processing (PR/1716).
953 2000-04-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
955 * scripts/functions/strip: Test empty value to strip (PR/1689).
957 2000-04-08 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
959 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Sleep before updating the target
960 files in the first test, to ensure its time stamp really gets
961 newer; otherwise Make might re-exec more than once.
963 2000-04-07 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
965 * scripts/features/double_colon: Don't run the parallel tests if
966 parallel jobs aren't supported.
968 2000-04-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
970 * scripts/functions/word: wordlist doesn't swap arguments anymore.
972 2000-03-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
974 * scripts/features/statipattrules: Test that static pattern rules
975 whose prerequisite patterns resolve to empty strings throw an
976 error (instead of dumping core). Fixes PR/1670.
978 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Make more robust by touching "b"
979 first, to ensure it's not newer than "a".
980 Reported by Marco Franzen <Marco.Franzen@Thyron.com>.
981 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
983 * scripts/functions/call: Whoops. The fix to PR/1527 caused
984 recursive invocations of $(call ...) to break. I can't come up
985 with any way to get both working at the same time, so I backed out
986 the fix to 1527 and added a test case for recursive calls. This
987 also tests the fix for PR/1610.
989 * scripts/features/double_colon: Test that circular dependencies
990 in double-colon rule sets are detected correctly (PR/1671).
992 2000-03-26 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
994 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Test that make doesn't remove
995 .INTERMEDIATE files when given on the command line (PR/1669).
997 2000-03-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
999 * scripts/options/dash-k: Add a test for error detection by
1000 multiple targets depending on the same prerequisite with -k.
1003 2000-02-07 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1005 * scripts/features/escape: Add a test for backslash-escaped spaces
1006 in a target name (PR/1586).
1008 2000-02-04 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1010 * scripts/features/patspecific_vars: Add a test for pattern-specific
1011 target variables inherited from the parent target (PR/1407).
1013 2000-02-02 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1015 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Hard-code the LANG to C
1016 to make sure sorting order, etc. is predictable.
1017 Reported by Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de>.
1019 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Set the $wtime variable
1020 depending on the OS. Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il> reports
1021 this seems to need to be *4* on DOS/Windows, not just 2. Keep it
1022 1 for other systems.
1023 * scripts/features/vpathplus (touchfiles): Use the $wtime value
1024 instead of hardcoding 2.
1025 * scripts/targets/SECONDARY: Ditto.
1026 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Ditto.
1028 2000-01-27 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1030 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): Don't try to run test scripts which
1031 are really directories.
1033 2000-01-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1035 * scripts/features/include: Remove a check; the fix caused more
1036 problems than the error, so I removed it and removed the test for
1039 2000-01-11 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1041 * scripts/functions/call: Add a test for PR/1517 and PR/1527: make
1042 sure $(call ...) doesn't eval its arguments and that you can
1043 invoke foreach from it without looping forever.
1045 1999-12-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1047 * scripts/targets/INTERMEDIATE: Add a test for PR/1423: make sure
1048 .INTERMEDIATE settings on files don't disable them as implicit
1049 intermediate possibilities.
1051 1999-12-01 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1053 * scripts/features/double_colon: Add a test for PR/1476: Try
1054 double-colon rules as non-goal targets and during parallel builds
1055 to make sure they're handled serially.
1057 1999-11-17 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1059 * scripts/functions/if: Add a test for PR/1429: put some text
1060 after an if-statement to make sure it works.
1062 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a test for PR/1380: handling +=
1063 in target-specific variable definitions correctly.
1065 1999-10-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1067 * scripts/variables/MAKEFILES: This was really broken: it didn't
1068 test anything at all, really. Rewrote it, plus added a test for
1071 1999-10-13 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1073 * scripts/options/dash-n: Add a test for PR/1379: "-n doesn't
1074 behave properly when used with recursive targets".
1076 1999-10-08 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1078 * scripts/features/targetvars: Add a check for PR/1378:
1079 "Target-specific vars don't inherit correctly"
1081 1999-09-29 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1083 * test_driver.pl (get_osname): Change $fancy_file_names to
1084 $short_filenames and reverse the logic.
1085 (run_each_test): Change test of non-existent $port_host to use
1086 $short_filenames--problem reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1088 1999-09-23 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1090 * scripts/features/parallelism: Add a check to ensure that the
1091 jobserver works when we re-invoke. Also cleaned up the tests a
1092 little, reducing the number of rules we use so the test won't need
1093 as many "sleep" commands.
1095 1999-09-16 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1097 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Remove invocations of "touch" in
1098 makefiles. See the comments on the touch function rewrite below.
1099 Note that UNIX touch behaves the same way if the file already
1100 exists: it sets the time to the _local_ time. We don't want
1101 this. This is probably a good tip for makefile writers in
1102 general, actually... where practical.
1103 * scripts/options/dash-l: Ditto.
1104 * scripts/options/dash-n: Ditto.
1106 * test_driver.pl (run_each_test): In retrospect, I don't like the
1107 .lN/.bN/.dN postfix required by DOS. So, for non-DOS systems I
1108 changed it back to use .log, .base, and .diff.
1110 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Move the check for the
1111 make pathname to here from set_defaults (that's too early since it
1112 happens before the command line processing).
1113 Create a new variable $port_type, calculated from $osname, to
1114 specify what kind of system we're running on. We should integrate
1115 the VOS stuff here, too.
1116 (valid_option): Comment out the workdir/-work stuff so people
1117 won't be fooled into thinking it works... someone needs to fix
1120 * scripts/functions/origin: Use $port_type instead of $osname.
1121 * scripts/functions/foreach: Ditto.
1122 * scripts/features/default_names: Ditto.
1124 1999-09-15 Paul D. Smith <psmith@gnu.org>
1126 * test_driver.pl (touch): Rewrite this function. Previously it
1127 used to use utime() to hard-set the time based on the current
1128 local clock, or, if the file didn't exist, it merely created it.
1129 This mirrors exactly what real UNIX touch does, but it fails badly
1130 on networked filesystems where the FS server clock is skewed from
1131 the local clock: normally modifying a file causes it to get a mod
1132 time based on the _server's_ clock. Hard-setting it based on the
1133 _local_ clock causes gratuitous errors and makes the tests
1134 unreliable except on local filesystems. The new function will
1135 simply modify the file, allowing the filesystem to set the mod
1136 time as it sees fit.
1138 * scripts/features/parallelism: The second test output could
1139 change depending on how fast some scripts completed; use "sleep"
1140 to force the order we want.
1142 * test_driver.pl (toplevel): A bug in Perl 5.000 to Perl 5.004
1143 means that "%ENV = ();" doesn't do the right thing. This worked
1144 in Perl 4 and was fixed in Perl 5.004_01, but use a loop to delete
1145 the environment rather than require specific versions.
1147 * run_make_tests.pl (set_more_defaults): Don't use Perl 5 s///
1148 modifier "s", so the tests will run with Perl 4.
1149 (set_more_defaults): Set $pure_log to empty if there's no -logfile
1150 option in PURIFYOPTIONS.
1151 (setup_for_test): Don't remove any logs unless $pure_log is set.
1153 1999-09-15 Eli Zaretskii <eliz@is.elta.co.il>
1155 * scripts/features/reinvoke: Put the SHELL definition in the right
