2008-05-27	in 280+ tests/* files, use $srcdir, not $top_srcdir/tests	Jim Meyering

2008-04-21	Revamp test-related Makefiles.	Jim Meyering
	One side-effect of this change is that "make check" now works even if you put "." early in your shell's search PATH (don't do that!). Remove all test-related Makefile.am files, except those generated by mk-script. Instead, tests/Makefile.am now lists not only the tests directly under tests/, but also those in tests// that are not generated by mk-script, e.g., cp/abuse, cp/acl, mv/i-1, etc. A lot of these changes are like this: -. $srcdir/../lang-default +. $top_srcdir/tests/lang-default -. $srcdir/../test-lib.sh +. $top_srcdir/tests/test-lib.sh configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove corresponding Makefiles. * tests/check.mk (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Relax syntax requirements. * tests/rwx-to-mode: Remove file. Rewritten as... * tests/test-lib.sh (rwx_to_mode_): ...this new function. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rwx-to-mode. (SUBDIRS): Remove each dir with a removed Makefile.am. (EXTRA_DIST): Add $(TESTS). (TESTS): Add over 300 entries.
2007-11-16	Port readlink-fp-loop to Solaris.	Paul Eggert
	* tests/misc/readlink-fp-loop (symlink_loop_msg): New var, which records the symlink-loop message, whose wording is not standardized by Posix. Do not rely on "echo x > p/1" to work when p/1 has a lot of indirect symlinks. (I'm surprised that it works on Linux. Perhaps a Linux bug?)
2007-09-27	Add a test to exercise a readlink bug.	Jim Meyering
	* tests/misc/readlink-fp-loop: New file. Test for the readlink bug fixed through today's change to Gnulib's canonicalize module. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add readlink-fp-loop. Bug report and a test case from mpb.mail@gmail.com.
