Stefano Lattarini 2838ad57 2011-06-06T14:40:22 tests: can use also $SHELL to check shell scripts from `lib/' * tests/ar-lib.test: If the variable `$test_prefer_config_shell' is set to "yes", run the script under test with configure-time determined $SHELL, rather than with /bin/sh. The `$test_prefer_config_shell' variable defaults to empty, but can be overridden at runtime by the user, thus allowing more coverage. * tests/compile.test: Likewise. * tests/compile2.test: Likewise. * tests/compile3.test: Likewise. * tests/compile4.test: Likewise. * tests/compile5.test: Likewise. * tests/compile6.test: Likewise. * tests/instsh2.test: Likewise. * tests/instsh3.test: Likewise. * tests/mkinst3.test: Likewise. * tests/missing.test: Likewise. * tests/missing2.test: Likewise. * tests/missing3.test: Likewise. * tests/missing5.test: Likewise. * tests/defs (get_shell_script): New subroutine, factoring out code common to the tests above. (xsi-lib-shell): If `$test_prefer_config_shell' is set to "yes", check that $SHELL, not /bin/sh, supports XSI constructs, as we expect the test will use $SHELL and not /bin/sh to run the script being tested.
Stefano Lattarini 9986bd92 2011-06-05T12:16:48 Revert "tests: use `$SHELL' to run the shell scripts from `lib/'" This reverts commit f977d00e0a3ab9af3555bb3bc8ea78726cb7a143. See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2011-06/msg00018.html> for the reasons behind this revert.
Stefano Lattarini f977d00e 2011-06-02T17:05:51 tests: use `$SHELL' to run the shell scripts from `lib/' This should offer greater testsuite coverage for those developers that override CONFIG_SHELL at configure time in order to test more shells on a single system, instead of just the default `/bin/sh'. This change also fixes few spurious failures in tests using the `xsi-shell' requirement, where inconsistencies could crop up if the shell probed for XSI features (which, by default, is $SHELL) was not the same shell later used to run the scripts using those features (which was hard-coded to `/bin/sh'). Such failures have already occurred in practice, for examples on Solaris systems which had also GNU Bash installed. * tests/ar-lib.test: Run the `ar-lib' script with `$SHELL', rather than directly with `./ar-lib', which would make run unconditionally with `/bin/sh'. * tests/compile.test: Likewise, but for the `compile' script. * tests/compile2.test: Likewise. * tests/compile3.test: Likewise. * tests/compile4.test: Likewise. * tests/compile5.test: Likewise. * tests/compile6.test: Likewise. * tests/instsh2.test: Likewise, but for the `install' script. * tests/instsh3.test: Likewise. * tests/mkinst3.test: Likewise, but for the `mkinstalldirs' script. * tests/missing.test: Likewise, but for the `missing' script. * tests/missing2.test: Likewise. * tests/missing3.test: Likewise. * tests/missing5.test: Likewise.
Stefano Lattarini 4f73c9f7 2010-06-03T00:30:03 testsuite: use `skip_' for skipping of tests * tests/defs: Use the `skip_' subroutine for test skipping.

Stefano Lattarini 79103003 2011-01-08T19:40:04 tests: enable 'errexit' shell flag by default. * tests/defs: Enable `errexit' shell flag (near the end). Removed redundant comment about the enabling of shell traces. * tests/README (Writing test cases): Update, and use nicer formatting in a couple of places. * All tests: Adjusted by removing now-redundant calls to 'set -e'.
Ralf Wildenhues fcf2f560 2009-05-17T15:32:40 Revert Automake license to GPLv2+. Automake will move to GPLv3+ once the Exception statement has been rewritten to use the new GPLv3 exception language. This change does not impact the COPYING file that may be installed by `automake --add-missing'. * COPYING: Revert to GPLv2. All uses changed. * NEWS: Update.

Ralf Wildenhues 20594c08 2008-09-06T19:20:32 Use `Exit' instead of `exit' in test suite. Cater to Bourne shells like Solaris sh that do not pass the `exit' argument as status to the cleanup trap. * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check that here-documents use only `END' or `EOF' as delimiter in the test suite. Check that, outside of here-documents, the tests do not use `exit' with an argument, but use `Exit' instead. * tests/defs.in (Exit): New function. Use it throughout, starting with the introduction of the exit trap. * tests/*.test: Use `Exit $arg' instead of `exit $arg' throughout, except inside created files.

Ralf Wildenhues 54906084 2008-03-03T23:02:58 Skip instsh3.test if `touch -t' does not work. * tests/instsh3.test: Test for `touch -t', fails with Solaris /usr/ucb/touch. * THANKS: Update. Report by Younes Younes.
Ralf Wildenhues eed74334 2008-01-30T21:23:16 Split instsh2.test, so that only the new part requires non-root. * tests/instsh2.test: Split off testing of `install-sh -C' ... * tests/instsh3.test: ... to this new test, requiring non-root. * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust. * THANKS: Update. Report by Theodoros V. Kalamatianos.
