2016-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig 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.
2015-11-10tests: ensure programs are built before testingPádraig Brady
programs may not be built due to missing system dependencies, or any program can be excluded at configure time with --enable-no-install-program. So ensure we're not testing the system versions in these cases. * init.cfg (print_ver_): Call require_built_ first. * tests/misc/tty-eof.pl: Skip programs not built. * tests/Coreutils.pm (run_tests): Likewise. * tests/misc/ls-misc.pl: Use 'env test' rather than abs path. * tests/misc/test-diag.pl: Likewise. * tests/local.mk: Adjust include order for dependencies. * tests/misc/arch.sh: Remove redundant calls to require_built_. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/groups-dash.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/groups-version.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/stdbuf.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/acl.sh: Remove problematic call to print_ver_ [gs]etfacl. * tests/mv/acl.sh: Likewise. * cfg.mk (sc_env_test_dependencies): A new syntax check to enforce specifying dependencies with print_ver_ for programs specified through the env command. * du/bigtime.sh: Add new print_ver_ dependencies. * du/max-depth.sh: Likewise. * dd/ascii.sh: Likewise. * tests/ls/capability.sh: Likewise. * tests/ls/root-rel-symlink-color.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/readlink-fp-loop.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-debug-keys.sh: Likewise. * tests/readlink/can-e.sh: Likewise. * tests/readlink/can-f.sh: Likewise. * tests/readlink/can-m.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-race2.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-create-missing.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-dereference.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printenv.sh: Tweak to avoid syntax check trigger. * tests/misc/help-version.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/yes.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printf-quote.sh: Use previously unused $prog. * configure.ac (EXTRA_MANS): Add $gl_no_install_prog to the list so that check-x-vs-1 syntax check is satisfied.
2015-01-14tests: use compare-vs-/dev/null instead of 'test -s'Bernhard Voelker
When some program produces unexpected output, that use of compare-vs-/dev/null will ensure that the surprising output is printed in the test's output. With "test -s err" only, one would have to instrument and rerun in order to see the offending output. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_and_fail_1): Exempt 'compare' from this check. * tests/dd/misc.sh: Change "tests -s ... || fail=1" to "compare /dev/null ... && fail=1". * tests/misc/nice.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/read-only.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-dereference.sh: Likewise. Suggested by Jim Meyering in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2015-01/msg00042.html
2015-01-14tests: add extra protection against unexpected exitsPádraig Brady
Many tests use `program ... && fail=1` to ensure expected error situations are indicated. However that would mask an unexpected exit (like a crash). Therefore explicitly check the expected exit code. Note where error messages are also verified, the extra protection is not added. * tests/init.sh (returns_): A new helper function to check the return code of a command, and used throughout the tests. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_and_fail_1): Add a syntax check to avoid new instances of this issue.
2015-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig Brady
Run "make update-copyright" and then... * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year. * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: Fix case in copyright message, so that year is updated automatically in future.
2014-07-02tests: use "env builtin" in place of "$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.
2014-05-07tests: improve diagnostics when asserting empty filesPádraig Brady
* tests/chmod/c-option.sh: Use `compare /dev/null ... || fail=1` rather than `test -s ... && fail=1`, so that the file contents are output, thus improving diagnostics for failing tests. * tests/cp/acl.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/cp-mv-enotsup-xattr.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/reflink-perm.sh: Likewise. * tests/dd/misc.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/env-null.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/env.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/nice.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/nohup.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printenv.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/xattr.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/update.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/deep-2.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/read-only.sh: Likewise. * tests/split/r-chunk.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/follow-stdin.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/wait.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-dereference.sh: Likewise. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_empty:): New syntax-check. * tests/cp/proc-zero-len.sh: Adjust to avoid false syntax-check failure. * tests/cp/proc-zero-len.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/part-symlink.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/infloop-1.sh: Likewise.
2014-01-02maint: update all copyright year number rangesBernhard 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.

2012-09-05build: don't use recursive make for tests/ subdirectoryStefano 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.
2012-08-30tests: add .sh and .pl suffixes to shell and perl tests, respectivelyStefano 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.
