* tests: prefer including 'test-init.sh' rather than './defs'Stefano Lattarini2012-10-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a follow-up to today's commit v1.12.4-22-g0610fc8, "tests: prepare to move ./defs to t/ax/test-init.sh" * All tests: To run the common setup, use the command: . test-init.sh instead of the older, "historical" one: . ./defs || exit 1 Note that the "|| exit 1" wasn't really useful, since the 'errexit' shell flag is in effect in both './defs' and 'test-init.sh', and all the known shells that are good enough to run the automake testsuite do automatically exit with error when a sourced file cannot be found (at least, they do so in non-interactive mode, which is the only mode that concerns us in the testsuite). * t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: Likewise. * gen-testsuite-part: Do the same in the generated tests.

* tests: simplify sourcing of helper shell filesStefano Lattarini2012-07-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the early $PATH setup in both 'runtest' and AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT allow the '.' built-in to find to-be-sourced shell scripts in the 't/ax/' directory automatically, we can simplify several usages like: . "$am_testauxdir"/foo.sh to just: . foo.sh Also, because our test scripts run with the 'errexit' flag active, and because POSIX mandates that, when the '.' built-in is used, ... if no readable file is found, a non-interactive shell shall abort ... we can further simplify usages like: . "$am_testauxdir"/foo.sh || fatal_ "sourcing foo.sh" once again to to just: . foo.sh * ./defs, several tests: Adjusted. Signed-off-by: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
* tests: simpler workaround for shells losing the exit status in exit trapStefano Lattarini2012-06-251-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we can assume our tests are run by a decent POSIX shell, we can simplify our workaround aimed at having the exit status propagated correctly to the code in the exit trap. Unfortunately, we cannot dispense with such a workaround altogether, because it's still required by some shells we need to support (at least Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh). For more information about the need of that workaround, see the entry about 'trap' in the section "Limitations of Shell Builtins" in the Autoconf manual: <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#trap> The new workaround has been tested successfully with the following shells: - Bash 4.1 - Bash 3.2 - Bash 3.0 - Bash 2.05b - dash 0.5.5.1 - dash 0.5.2 - AT&T Ksh 93u (from official Debian package) - MirBSD Korn Shell 40.2 (from official Debian package) - Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /bin/ksh - Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /usr/xpg4/bin/sh - NetBSD 5.1 /bin/sh - NetBSD 5.1 /bin/ksh * t/ax/test-init.sh (Exit): Rename ... (_am_exit): ... like this. (exit): New alias for '_am_exit'. We cannot simply redefine 'exit' as a shell function, because some shells (dash 0.5.5.1, Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh) do not allow it. (_am_exit, trap): Add extra escaping for 'exit' calls, to ensure we really invoke the 'exit' builtin and not our alias with the same name. * configure.ac: Check that the shell selected to run our testsuite supports aliases named like shell builtins. * t/REAMDE: Adjust. * All tests: Adjust, by simply using 'exit' instead of 'Exit'. * t/self-check-explicit-skips.sh: Adjust: the first usage of 'exit' after it has been redefined as an alias must be on a new line w.r.t. that where the alias is defined, in order for the redefinition to be honored. * syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_Exit_not_exit): Delete. (sc_tests_exit_not_Exit): New. (syntax_check_rules): Adjust. (sc_tests_automake_fails): Simplify the recipe a little. * Several tests: Remove now useless spurious quoting once required to placate the 'sc_tests_Exit_not_exit' maintainer check. * gen-testsuite-part: Likewise. Also, avoid uses of 'Exit' in the generated scripts. Signed-off-by: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
* tests: use 'parallel-tests' Automake option by defaultStefano Lattarini2012-05-181-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will help our transition from 'serial-tests' to 'parallel-tests' as the default test suite driver enabled by a TESTS assignment in the input Makefile.am. Note that that change of default will only take place in master, though. * defs: Pass the 'parallel-tests' option to the AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE invocation in the created 'configure.ac' stub, unless the variable 'am_serial_tests' is set to "yes". Don't pay attention anymore to the 'am_parallel_tests' variable, that's obsolete now. * defs-static.in: Warn if the 'am_serial_tests' variable is set in the environment; conversely, don't warn anymore about 'am_parallel_tests' being set in the environment. * Makefile.am (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Nullify the 'am_serial_tests' variable instead of the now-obsolete 'am_parallel_tests' one. * syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_obsolete_variables): Also warn against uses of 'am_parallel_tests', which is now deprecated in favor of 'am_serial_tests'. Similarly, if a use of 'parallel_tests' is seen, suggest using 'am_serial_tests' instead, not 'am_parallel_tests'. * gen-testsuite-part: Now that we use the 'parallel-tests' by default in our tests, we need to completely change the logic and semantics of generation of sibling tests for those tests that check the Automake generated testsuite harness itself. Do that, and give a complete explanation of the new logic and semantics in the relevant comments. * t/README: Update. * Lots of test cases: Adjust.

* tests: rename 'tests/' => 't/', '*.test' => '*.sh'Stefano Lattarini2012-04-061-0/+56
When we (soon) convert the Automake testsuite to a non-recursive make setup, we'll have to fix the entries of $(TESTS) to be prepended with the subdirectory they are in; this will increase the length of $(TESTS), and thus increase the possibility of exceeding the command-line length limits on some systems (most notably, MinGW/MSYS). See automake bug#7868 for more information. Thus we rename the 'tests/' subdirectory to 't/', and each 'x.test' script in there to 'x.sh'; this way, the $(TESTS) entry 'foo.test' will become 't/foo.sh', which have the same number of characters. * tests/: Rename ... * t/: ... to this. * t/*.test: Rename ... * t/*.sh: ... to this. * t/.gitignore: Removed as obsolete. * t/defs: Adjust. * t/gen-testsuite-part: Likewise. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Likewise. * t/ccnoco.sh: Likewise. * t/ccnoco3.sh: Likewise. * t/self-check-cleanup.tap: Likewise. * t/self-check-dir.tap: Likewise. * t/self-check-me.tap: Likewise. * t/self-check-reexec.tap: Likewise. * README: Likewise. * bootstrap: Likewise * configure.ac: Likewise. * Makefile.am: Likewise. * .gitignore: Likewise. * syntax-check.mk: Likewise.
