1 | Update: doesn't work as described. Try "make check" from parent dir... | ||

4 | To run the test suite, change to this directory and run "./runtest". It will | ||
5 | run all of the test cases, and list those with unexpected outcomes. Adding the | ||
6 | -v option will cause it to show expected outcomes as well. To only run the test | ||
7 | cases for particular applets, specify them as parameters to runtest. | ||
8 | |||
9 | The test cases for an applet reside in the subdirectory of the applet name. The | ||
10 | name of the test case should be the assertion that is tested. The test case | ||
11 | should be a shell fragment that returns successfully if the test case passes, | ||
12 | and unsuccessfully otherwise. | ||
13 | |||
14 | If the test case relies on a certain feature, it should include the string | ||
15 | "FEATURE: " followed by the name of the feature in a comment. If it is always | ||
16 | expected to fail, it should include the string "XFAIL" in a comment. | ||
