2016-01-01	maint: update all copyright year number ranges	Pádraig Brady
	Run "make update-copyright" and then... * gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted. * tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year. * bootstrap: Likewise. * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.
2015-11-10	tests: cleanup trapping of signal names	Pádraig Brady
	A side effect of this cleanup is we no longer depend on our own kill command being built. * init.cfg (require_trap_signame_): A new function to verify that the shell supports specifying traps by signal name. (require_kill_group_): A new function to ensure the shell supports sending a signal to a group. * tests/du/move-dir-while-traversing.sh: Ensure trap supports signal names. * tests/misc/stty-invalid.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/stty-pairs.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/stty-row-col.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/stty.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-compress.sh: Likewise. Also simplify trap call. * tests/install/trap.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/timeout.sh: Likewise. * tests/dd/stats.sh: Likewise. Also use default kill command. * tests/misc/timeout-group.sh: Likewise.
2015-01-01	maint: update all copyright year number ranges	Pádraig Brady
	Run "make update-copyright" and then... * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year. * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: Fix case in copyright message, so that year is updated automatically in future.
2014-07-02	tests: use "env builtin" in place of "$abs_top_builddir/src/builtin"	Jim Meyering
	This works for any program that might also be a shell built-in. It is more concise. In addition, it makes output more reproducible: some diagnostics include argv[0], which will now be just the program name, rather than the full absolute name of the executable. * tests/misc/sort-compress.sh: Use env kill, rather than absolute name. * tests/install/trap.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/timeout.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-dereference.sh: Do the same for two uses of "test". * tests/touch/no-create-missing.sh: Likewise.
2014-01-02	maint: update all copyright year number ranges	Bernhard Voelker
	Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this, perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test to make that one script use the single most recent year number.
2013-01-01	maint: update all copyright year number ranges	Jim Meyering
	Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this, perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test to make that one script use the single most recent year number.
2012-11-24	tests: use sub-second timeouts to speed up a timeout test	Pádraig Brady
	* tests/misc/timeout.sh: Take advantage of recent support for sub-second timeouts to decrease runtime from about 6s to 2s.
2012-11-04	timeout: add --preserve-status to always propagate the exit status	Ángel González
	It's useful for commands that support running for an indeterminite amount of time, to not return a specific timeout exit status (124), and instead let the command handle the timeout signal and return a status for the work done so far. * doc/coreutils.texi (timeout invocation): Describe the new option. * src/timeout.c (preserve_status): A new global boolean to enable the --preserve-status behavior. (usage): Describe the new option. (main): Don't return EXIT_TIMEOUT of preserve_status is set. * tests/misc/timeout.sh: Add a test for the new option.
2012-09-05	build: don't use recursive make for tests/ subdirectory	Stefano Lattarini
	* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove 'tests'. (include): The '$(top_srcdir)/tests/local.mk' file. (check-root): Remove this convenience target, it's no longer needed now that the "real" check-root target once in 'tests/Makefile' will land in the top-level makefile. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'tests/Makefile'. * tests/Makefile.am: Rename ... * tests/local.mk: ... like this, with a lot of adjustments. * tests/init.cfg: Move ... * init.cfg: ... here. This is necessary, for a limitation of the gnulib-provided 'tests/init.sh', which unconditionally look for 'init.cfg' in the $(srcdir) directory. * tests//.sh: Adjust: expect init.sh to be in '$srcdir/tests', not in '$srcdir', and extend $PATH with './src', not with '../src'. * tests/Coreutils.pm: Adjust similarly. * tests/pr/pr-tests.pl ($pfx): Likewise.
2012-08-30	tests: add .sh and .pl suffixes to shell and perl tests, respectively	Stefano Lattarini
	Not only this shrinks the size of the generated Makefile (from > 6300 lines to ~3000), but will allow further simplifications in future changes. * tests/Makefile.am (TEST_EXTENSIONS): Add '.sh' and '.pl'. (PL_LOG_COMPILER, SH_LOG_COMPILER): New, still defined simply to $(LOG_COMPILER) for the time being. (TESTS, root_tests): Adjust as described. * All tests: Rename as described.
