2012-08-30	tests: get rid of the 'shell-or-perl' auxiliary script	Stefano Lattarini	1	-109/+0
	It's now easier and faster to simply run the perl ans shell test scripts directly with the appropriate interpreter and options. * tests/shell-or-perl: Delete. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove it. (SH_LOG_COMPILER): Re-define to invoke the correct shell. (PL_LOG_COMPILER): Re-define to invoke the correct perl interpreter ... (TESTSUITE_PERL_OPTIONS): ... with the correct options. (XPL_LOG_COMPILER): Use those options instead of inlining their expansion. (LOG_COMPILER): Delete, no longer needed.
2012-08-30	tests: detect missing perl at configure runtime	Stefano Lattarini	1	-9/+2
	* configure.ac (AM_CONDITIONAL): Set the conditional 'HAVE_PERL' to true if the configure-time checks (as run by gl_PERL) have been able to find a working perl. * tests/no-perl: New script, report a diagnostic about "missing perl" and exit with status 77. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute it. (TESTSUITE_PERL): New, define to '$(PERL)' if a perl interpreter has been found at configure time (i.e., if the 'HAVE_PERL' automake conditional is true), and to '$(srcdir)/no-perl' otherwise. (LOG_COMPILER): Use $(TESTSUITE_PERL) instead of $(PERL). (XPL_LOG_COMPILER): Likewise. * tests/shell-or-perl: Simplify: no need to actually check whether perl is working.
2012-08-30	tests: avoid use of '-T' in shebang line to enable perl taint mode	Stefano Lattarini	1	-7/+2
	* tests/rm/fail-eperm: Rename ... * tests/rm/fail-eperm.xpl: ... like this * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Adjust. (TEST_EXTENSIONS): New, list '.xpl'. (XPL_TEST_LOGS): New, run a perl test in tainted mode. * tests/shell-or-perl: Simplify this script: we no longer need to parse the shebang line and adjust the flags in the perl invocation accordingly.
2012-01-09	tests: change `...' to '...' on lines not matching /[=\$]/	Jim Meyering	1	-2/+2
	Exempt lines with '$' or '=', since those are prone to improper conversion. Run this: git grep -l "\`[^']'" tests \ \|xargs perl -pi -e '/[=\$]/ and next;s/\`([^'\''"]?'\'')/'\''$1/g'
2012-01-01	maint: update all copyright year number ranges	Jim Meyering	1	-1/+1
	Run "make update-copyright".
2011-08-04	tests: remove obsolete 'error_' shell function	Stefano Lattarini	1	-7/+9
	* tests/init.cfg (framework_failure, getlimits_): Use 'fatal_' instead of 'error_'. (error_): Delete, it's not used anymore (and one is anyway advised to use 'fatal_' instead). Update heading comments. * tests/shell-or-perl (error_): Renamed ... (fatal_): ... to this, for consistency. Also, add a useful comment.
2011-06-19	tests: avoid extra forks in the testsuite	Stefano Lattarini	1	-4/+12
	* tests/shell-or-perl: Prefer the `read' builtin over `grep' to look at the shebang line of test scripts. Since `read' is a special builtin, it might abort the whole program upon failures, so add extra sanity checks, verifying that the test script exists and is readable, before trying to read from it.
2011-06-19	tests: make test runner a script, not a shell function	Stefano Lattarini	1	-0/+111
	This change implements a more correct and idiomatic use of the features of the Automake-provided 'parallel-tests' harness. Moreover, this change is required in order for the testsuite to continue to work with the new testsuite harness that is planned to be introduced in Automake 1.12 (which, as of the writing date, is still under development and in alpha state). * tests/shell-or-perl: New auxiliary script. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute it. * tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Remove definition of the `shell_or_perl_' shell function, whose code has been moved in the new script above (with a few improvements and extensions). Do not use it to run the test scripts. (LOG_COMPILER): New, properly invoking `shell-or-perl'.
