Which it should be when running tests, because config.status is sourced. But it's too late in the release process to change this now; after the release, can try keeping a non-empty MTIME_RESOLUTION. | |

c7ac3e43 | 2024-06-20 10:04:55 | test: sync list-of-tests. * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_TESTS): add back t/instdir-ltlib.sh; turns out all tests need to be listed there, XFAIL_TESTS is not included, and that seems ok. * t/CheckListOfTests.am (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): only delete temp files if result is successful. | |
|
bc1042e7 | 2024-06-19 10:02:39 | automake: insane typo * instead of 2. * m4/sanity.m4 (AM_SANITY_CHECK): managed to replace 2 with * in ls -t test. Clearly I have gone insane. | |

fad36f78 | 2024-06-17 15:38:11 | automake: omit 1s test in _AM_FILESYSTEM_TIMESTAMP_RESOLUTION, for speed. From https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2024-06/msg00055.html plus https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2024-06/msg00054.html. * m4/sanity.m4 (_AM_FILESYSTEM_TIMESTAMP_RESOLUTION): Don't test whether 1 sec works; instead just accept the 2 sec delay in the Automake test $sleep in exchange for not incurring the 2s delay of running the test for all packages on 1s-resolution platforms. Platforms that support subsecond mtimes will still use them. | |

Discussed in https://bugs.gnu.org/71596. * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_TESTS): move t/instdir-ltlib.sh (XFAIL_TESTS): to here. It previously worked by accident because lib_LTLIBRARIES was misspelled as lib_LTIBRARIES; Paul Eggert fixed that on June 7, commit 1d35638b23e95fe6f41c828a3442f6d7f242f4c4, and the test started failing as a result. * t/instdir-ltlib.sh: add some doc. * t/all.sh: likewise. (Another xfail test, which is mysterious to me.) | |

|
1d35638b | 2024-06-07 08:41:45 | maint: spelling and whitespace fixes Most of these spelling fixes are just to comments and documentation. However, some affect tests as follows: * t/cond36.sh (tparse.h): Fix misspelling of dependency. * t/disthook.sh: Fix misspelling of file. * t/help3.sh: Fix misspelling of long option. * t/instdir-ltlib.sh: Fix misspellings of macro names.

0d49ecb2 | 2024-05-21 09:54:35 | doc: test-driver option args are separate words. For https://bugs.gnu.org/70638. As now mentioned in the manual, the description of the test-driver command-line interface has been wrong since 2011 when it was first added. The manual, and the driver usage messages themselves, have consistently shown option arguments joined to the option name with `=' characters, while the implementation of Automake has always provided option arguments in the following argument word, and the provided test drivers only accepted option arguments in the following argument word. Because Automake has never used the `=' syntax, there can't possibly be a working driver which actually follows the specification as written, so, despite the fierce language of the manual, we agreed that changing the specification was the right approach. The `test-driver' program's usage message has already been fixed (#22445), but the full extent of the problem wasn't noticed at that time. * doc/automake.texi (Command-line arguments for test drivers): Fix the table of options to show arguments passed as separate words; add footnote explaining this rather sorry situation. * doc/automake.texi (Use TAP with the Automake test harness): Remove `=' from documentation of `--diagnostic-string', because that was never acceptable either. * lib/tap-driver.sh: Fix usage message. * contrib/tap-driver.pl: Change usage message to match the defined protocol. (This implementation parses options using Perl's `Getopt::Long' module, so it accepts the `=' syntax as specified, but this program isn't actually used.) | |

Apparently there are plenty of systems which supposedly support subsecond-mtimes down to the millisecond and yet randomly fail parallelized tests.
