Within a directory that includes test files, there may be
additional subdirectories, or files. Originally, test cases
were appended to one file that represented a particular section

+ The testsuite uses the DejaGnu framework to compile and run the tests.

+ and tell DejaGnu what to do and what kinds of behavior are to be expected
+ for a test. The core DejaGnu directives are documented in the

+ Test cases that use features of a particular C++ standard should specify

+</p><pre class="programlisting"> // { dg-do run { target c++11 } }</pre><p>
+ or
+</p><pre class="programlisting"> // { dg-require-effective-target c++11 }</pre><p>
+ Specifying the minimum required standard for a test allows it to be run
+ using later standards, so that we can verify that C++11 components still
+ work correctly when compiled as C++14 or later. Specifying a minimum also
+ means the test will be skipped if the test is compiled using
+ an older standard, e.g. using
+ <code class="option">RUNTESTFLAGS=--target_board=unix/-std=gnu++98</code>.
+ </p><p>
+ It is possible to indicate that a test should <span class="emphasis"><em>only</em></span>
+ be run for a specific standard (and not later standards) using an
+ effective target like <code class="literal">c++11_only</code>. However, this means
+ the test will be skipped by default (because the default mode is
+ <code class="literal">gnu++14</code>), and so will only run when
+ <code class="option">-std=gnu++11</code> or <code class="option">-std=c++11</code> is used
+ explicitly. For tests that require a specific standard it is better to
+ use a <code class="literal">dg-options</code> directive:
+</p><pre class="programlisting"> // { dg-options "-std=gnu++11" }</pre><p>
+ This means the test will not get skipped by default, and will always use
+ the specific standard dialect that the test requires. This isn't needed
+ often, and most tests should use an effective target to specify a
+ minimum standard instead, to allow them to be tested for all
+ possible variations.
+ </p><p>
+ Similarly, tests which depend on a newer standard than the default
+ should use <code class="literal">dg-options</code> instead of an effective target,
+ so that they are not skipped by default.
+ For example, tests for C++17 features should use

+ Test cases that use features of a particular C++ standard should specify

+<programlisting> // { dg-do run { target c++11 } }</programlisting>
+ or
+<programlisting> // { dg-require-effective-target c++11 }</programlisting>
+ Specifying the minimum required standard for a test allows it to be run
+ using later standards, so that we can verify that C++11 components still
+ work correctly when compiled as C++14 or later. Specifying a minimum also
+ means the test will be skipped if the test is compiled using

+ It is possible to indicate that a test should <emphasis>only</emphasis>
+ be run for a specific standard (and not later standards) using an
+ effective target like <literal>c++11_only</literal>. However, this means
+ the test will be skipped by default (because the default mode is
+ <literal>gnu++14</literal>), and so will only run when
+ <option>-std=gnu++11</option> or <option>-std=c++11</option> is used
+ explicitly. For tests that require a specific standard it is better to
+ use a <literal>dg-options</literal> directive:
+<programlisting> // { dg-options "-std=gnu++11" }</programlisting>
+ This means the test will not get skipped by default, and will always use
+ the specific standard dialect that the test requires. This isn't needed
+ often, and most tests should use an effective target to specify a
+ minimum standard instead, to allow them to be tested for all
+ possible variations.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Similarly, tests which depend on a newer standard than the default
+ should use <literal>dg-options</literal> instead of an effective target,
+ so that they are not skipped by default.
+ For example, tests for C++17 features should use
+<programlisting> // { dg-options "-std=gnu++17" }</programlisting>
+ and not
+<programlisting> // { dg-do run "c++1z" }</programlisting>

-# "{ target selector }" is a list of expressions that determine whether the

-# The target selector is always optional. The format is one of:

-# { target *-*-* ... } - the option only applies to the given targets

-# At least one target must be specified, use *-*-* for "all targets".
