2008-02-23	Avoid test failures when root (/) is not readable.	Jim Meyering
	* tests/test-lib.sh (require_readable_root_): New function. * tests/misc/pwd-long: Skip this test when / is unreadable. * tests/du/slash: Likewise. This is required at least for Mandrake/Mandriva in "secure" mode. Reported by Theodoros V. Kalamatianos in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/12800
2008-02-11	tests: Migrate sourced strace file into a function, require_strace_.	Jim Meyering
	* tests/strace: Remove file. * tests/test-lib.sh (require_strace_): New function. * tests/mv/atomic: Use require_strace_, rather than ". strace". * tests/ls/stat-free-symlinks: Likewise. Peter Fales reported that stat-free-symlinks failed without strace.
2008-02-09	tests: Remove priv-check. Use new require_root_ function instead.	Jim Meyering
	* tests/priv-check: Remove file. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove priv-check. * tests/test-lib.sh (require_root_): New function. Use this function rather than sourcing the priv-check file. * tests/sample-test: Use require_root_ rather than priv-check. * tests/chown/basic: Likewise. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: Likewise. * tests/cp/preserve-gid: Likewise. * tests/cp/special-bits: Likewise. * tests/ls/nameless-uid: Likewise. * tests/misc/chcon: Likewise. * tests/mkdir/writable-under-readonly: Likewise. * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-2eperm: Likewise. * tests/rm/no-give-up: Likewise. * tests/rm/one-file-system: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/append-only: Likewise. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Use skip_if_root_ rather than priv-check. * Makefile.maint (sc_root_tests): Reflect this change: search for the new function name.
2008-02-09	tests: move the very-expensive file into test-lib.sh	Jim Meyering
	* tests/very-expensive: Remove file. * tests/test-lib.sh (very_expensive_): New function. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove very-expensive. * tests/cp/perm: Call the new function, rather than sourcing the file. * tests/tail-2/assert: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/assert-2: Likewise. * tests/du/2g: Likewise.

2007-11-30	Add quotes to protect against white space in build dir name.	Ralf Wildenhues

2007-11-01	Use mktemp, not mkdtemp, to create test directories.	Jim Meyering

2007-11-01	Make the new printf-surprise test more precise.	Jim Meyering
	* tests/test-lib.sh (require_ulimit_): New function. * tests/misc/printf-surprise: Use ulimit -v to trigger the fixed bug, and rather than checking printf's exit status (which would go wrong on FreeBSD 6.1, since their printf(3) function doesn't require lots of memory in this case) simply test whether it outputs the first 10 bytes.
2007-10-09	Skip the chcon test on a system with no SELinux support.	Jim Meyering
	* tests/test-lib.sh (require_selinux_): New function. * tests/misc/chcon: Use it. * tests/misc/selinux: Use it here, too. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: and here. * tests/selinux: Remove file. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove selinux. Reported by Mike Frysinger and Bauke Jan Douma.
