Stefano Lattarini 72cae0a5 2012-02-19T14:53:53 tests: be stricter in determining whether "make -jN" works * tests/parallel-tests3.test: With at least Solaris 10 CCS make, "make -jN" does not fail, but merely prints a warning about "DistributedMake -j option" being ignored. This was causing this test case to fail spuriously. So we now use a stricter check in determining whether make works in parallel mode. Since we are at it, we try to cater also to Sun Distributed make, which understands "-j N" but *not* "-jN".
Stefano Lattarini e1606b32 2012-02-18T13:59:26 parallel-tests: fix another BSD parallel make issue When BSD make is run in parallel mode, it apparently strips any leading directory component from the automatic variable '$*' (of course, against what POSIX mandates). This was causing FreeBSD 9.0 make and NetBSD 5.1 make to spuriously fail with automake-generated test harnesses if subdir tests were present *and* make was being run in parallel mode. This issue affected also the Automake own testsuite. * lib/am/check2.am (am__set_b): New internal variable. (%OBJ%, %EXT%.log, %EXT%$(EXEEXT).log): Use it to work around the described BSD make issue. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Enhanced to expose the bug. * tests/parallel-tests-subdir.test: Enhance a little, since we are at it. * NEWS: Update.

Stefano Lattarini 2a0534da 2011-12-23T21:01:59 tests: remove FIXME comments from tricks to pacify syntax checks Originally, I myself had insisted on adding those "FIXME" comments near every unusual construct or use of "creative quoting" whose only purpose was to avoid false positive from out syntax checks. I did that with the expectation that we could have easily and soon added a whitelisting capability to our maintainer-specific syntax checks. This hasn't been the case unfortunately, and now those "FIXME" in the comments are just distracting noise, making it more difficult to grep the test cases for stuff that could really use a fix or an improvement. So just get rid of them. * tests/instdir-ltlib.test: Remove that extra "FIXME". * tests/instdir-prog.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests-dry-run.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests-console-output.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests-no-color-in-log.test: Likewise. * tests/tap-realtime.test: Likewise. * tests/test-trs-recover.test: Likewise. * tests/tap-deps.test: Likewise.

Stefano Lattarini 9579333e 2011-10-20T23:10:03 Merge branch 'maint' * maint: tests: fix spurious failures with "chatty" make implementations tests: fix spurious failure on fast machines tests: avoid spurious failure of 'uninstall-fail.test' on Solaris tests: avoid spurious failure in 'parallel-tests3.test' tests: fix spurious failure with FreeBSD make and Yacc in VPATH
Stefano Lattarini f5b69b8a 2011-10-18T21:05:24 tests: avoid spurious failure in 'parallel-tests3.test' This fixes automake bug#8788. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: To ensure that the serial run of the dummy testsuite is still ongoing when the parallel run has terminated, use `kill -0', not a bare `kill'. This will prevent a testsuite crash on NetBSD 5.1, and a testsuite hang on FreeBSD 8.2. Also, since we are at it, try harder to avoid possible hangs of the script in other unusual situations.

Stefano Lattarini eaac33fe 2011-07-01T11:12:31 parallel-tests: simplify testsuite summary Prefer a more deterministic, "tabular" format for the testsuite summary, always listing the numbers of passed, failed, xfailed, xpassed, skipped and errored tests, even when these numbers are zero. This simplify the logic of testsuite summary creation, makes it more easily machine-parseable, and will probably allow for easier addition of new kinds of test results in the future. * lib/am/check.am (am__tty_colors_dummy): New make variable, to reduce code duplication. Extracted from previous versions of $(am__tty_colors), and extended by defining two new variables `$mgn' and `$brg'. [%?COLOR%, %!?COLOR%] (am__tty_colors): Use that new variable. (am__text_box): Delete, is not needed anymore. ($(TEST_SUITE_LOG)): Rewrite associated rules to implement the new testsuite summary format. * NEWS: Update. * tests/check10.test: Don't run with the parallel-tests harness too, that makes no sense anymore. * tests/color.test: Update and adjust. * tests/color2.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests6.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests9.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests-unreadable-log.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests-empty-testlogs.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests-log-override-recheck.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests-no-spurious-summary.test: Likewise. * tests/test-driver-custom-multitest.test: Likewise. * tests/test-driver-end-test-results.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests-no-color-in-log.test: New test. * tests/testsuite-summary-color.test: Likewise. * tests/testsuite-summary-count.test: Likewise. * tests/testsuite-summary-count-many.test: Likewise. * tests/testsuite-summary-reference-log.test: Likewise. * tests/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: New auxiliary script, used by the new tests above. * tests/extract-testsuite-summary: Likewise. * tests/trivial-test-driver: Optimize for speed when there are lots of of tests. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute them. (testsuite-summary-color.log, testsuite-summary-count.log): Depend on them. (testsuite-summary-count-many.log): Depend on the auxiliary scripts 'trivial-test-driver' and 'extract-testsuite-summary'. (TESTS): Update.

Add trailing `:' command. * tests/check3.test: Likewise. Also, fix minor error in a comment. * tests/check4.test: Stricter grepping of make output. Use `using_gmake' subroutine instead of copy&paste from defs.in to determine whether $MAKE is GNU make. Add a trailing `:' command. * tests/check6.test: Add trailing `:' command. * tests/check10.test: Prefer redirection `>' over `>>' when creating new files. Ensure verbose printing of captured make output. * tests/check11.test: Likewise. * tests/check7.test: Likewise. Make grepping of make output stricter. Prefer "make distcheck" over a simple "make check" in a VPATH build. Add trailing `:' command. (a.c): Format following GNU coding standards. (Makefile.am): Explicitly declare target `print-xfail-tests' as PHONY. Distribute $(check_SCRIPTS), for distcheck. * tests/parallel-tests.test: Prefer redirection `>' over `>>' when creating new files. * tests/parallel-tests2.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests9.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests8.test: Likewise. Make grepping of automake stderr stricter. * tests/check8.test: Likewise.

(pass-prog.c, xfail-prog.c): Format them more consistently with GNU Coding Standards. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Use a shorter and clearer skip message. Use the `unindent' subroutine to improve readability of indented loop bodies. Simplify the hack used to please maintainer-check. * tests/parallel-tests5.test: Make formatting of created *.c files more consistent with GNU Coding Standards. Use the `unindent' subroutine to improve readability of indented loop bodies. * tests/parallel-tests10.test: Add blank line, for clarity. Prefer trailing `:' over trailing `Exit 0', for consistency with other tests.

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'.
Stefano Lattarini a7d14dfb 2011-01-02T15:49:16 Tests: normalize use of the 'errexit' shell flag. * tests/maken3.test (check_targets): Remove redundant call to 'set -e'. * tests/maken4.test: Likewise. * tests/ansi5.test: Call 'set -e' just after './defs' has been sourced. * tests/ansi6.test: Likewise. * tests/ansi7.test: Likewise. * tests/cond16.test: Likewise. * tests/cond17.test: Likewise. * tests/cond18.test: Likewise. * tests/cond19.test: Likewise. * tests/cond20.test: Likewise. * tests/cond21.test: Likewise. * tests/instdat2.test: Likewise. * tests/instdir-texi.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Likewise. * tests/remake1a.test: Likewise. * tests/ccnoco.test: Likewise, and add trailing `:' command. * tests/comment4.test: Likewise. * tests/gcj4.test: Likewise. * tests/nodist2.test: Likewise. * tests/nodist3.test: Enable 'errexit' shell flag (this should have been done in commit v1.11-248-g317e17b, but the relevant hunk has been forgotten somehow). * tests/output.test: Likewise. * tests/gnits2.test: Likewise, and display captured stderr to script's stderr, not to script's stdout. * tests/gnits3.test: Likewise. Also, prefer 'cat' over 'echo' to append to Makefile.am, and really check that the exit status of "make installcheck" indicates failure.
Stefano Lattarini 03449117 2010-03-04T20:22:17 Avoid generation of `tests/defs-p' file * tests/defs.in: In the generated `configure.in' snippet: call `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' with the `parallel-tests' option if the shell variable `parallel_tests' is set to `yes'. * tests/Makefile.am (defs-p): Target removed. (check_SCRIPTS): Removed `defs-p'. (clean-local-check): Do not unlink `defs-p' anymore. ($(parallel_tests)): Transformation rules for the test scripts adjusted. * tests/gen-parallel-tests: Selection rules for the test scripts adjusted. * tests/parallel-tests.test: Set `$parallel_tests' to `yes' then include `./defs' (rather than simply including `./defs-p'). * tests/parallel-tests2.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests4.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests5.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests6.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests7.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests8.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests9.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests10.test: Likewise. * tests/README (Section "Writing Test Cases", subsection "Do"): Adjusted the parts referring to tests checking `parallel-tests' behaviour.

Stefano Lattarini f923b46e 2010-03-04T21:09:13 Remove redundant unset of variable TESTS from some test scripts. * tests/color.test: Do not unset the `TESTS' variable, as it's already unset in the `defs' file. * tests/check5.test: Likewise. * tests/check8.test: Likewise. * tests/check9.test: Likewise. * tests/check10.test: Likewise. * tests/check11.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests4.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests5.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests6.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests7.test: Likewise.
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 e37e045a 2009-04-19T17:57:23 testsuite: minor w32 fixes. * tests/depend5.test: Don't fail if the system or file system cannot handle weird characters, instead just try a few. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Really wait until the serial test has finished, before letting the cleanup trap do its work. Report by Bruno Haible. Signed-off-by: Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
Ralf Wildenhues 1cf48284 2009-04-14T23:09:15 testsuite: parallel make fixes. This patch fixes a couple of testsuite bugs exposed with `MAKE=make\ -jN make check'. * tests/libtoo10.test: Do not run `clean' in same $MAKE invocation as `all check'. Fixes test failure with parallel NetBSD `make -jN'. * tests/nobase.test: Be sure to create a directory before creating files in it. Fixes test failure with MAKE=`make -jN' for NetBSD make. This issue is hidden with parallel GNU make due to its parallel breadth first update order. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Skip if $MAKE contains `-j', GNU make will use the environment variable $MAKE for recursion and thus run in parallel even if `$MAKE -j1' was used on the command line in the test. Also, after running the test proper, wait long enough so that background jobs have finished and there are no open files left when the cleanup code runs.
