software required to build LLVM, as well

<p>The LLVM testing infrastructure contains two major categories of tests:
|
|
|
|
|
regression tests and whole programs. The regression tests are contained inside
|
|
|
|
|
the LLVM repository itself under <tt>llvm/test</tt> and are expected to always
|
2012-03-16 06:19:35 +08:00
|
|
|
pass -- they should be run before every commit.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The whole programs tests are referred to as the "LLVM test suite" (or
|
|
|
|
|
"test-suite") and are in the <tt>test-suite</tt> module in subversion. For
|
|
|
|
|
historical reasons, these tests are also referred to as the "nightly tests" in
|
|
|
|
|
places, which is less ambiguous than "test-suite" and remains in use although we
|
|
|
|
|
run them much more often than nightly.</p>

<p>The regression tests are small pieces of code that test a specific feature of
|
|
|
|
|
LLVM or trigger a specific bug in LLVM. They are usually written in LLVM
|
|
|
|
|
assembly language, but can be written in other languages if the test targets a
|
|
|
|
|
particular language front end (and the appropriate <tt>--with-llvmgcc</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
options were used at <tt>configure</tt> time of the <tt>llvm</tt> module). These
|
|
|
|
|
tests are driven by the 'lit' testing tool, which is part of LLVM.</p>

|
|
|
<p>These code fragments are not complete programs. The code generated
|
|
|
|
|
from them is never executed to determine correct behavior.</p>
|
2008-05-23 19:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>These code fragment tests are located in the <tt>llvm/test</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
directory.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Typically when a bug is found in LLVM, a regression test containing
|
|
|
|
|
just enough code to reproduce the problem should be written and placed
|
|
|
|
|
somewhere underneath this directory. In most cases, this will be a small
|
|
|
|
|
piece of LLVM assembly language code, often distilled from an actual
|
|
|
|
|
application or benchmark.</p>

<p>The test suite contains whole programs, which are pieces of code which can be
|
|
|
|
|
compiled and linked into a stand-alone program that can be executed. These
|
|
|
|
|
programs are generally written in high level languages such as C or C++.</p>
|
2008-05-23 19:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2012-03-16 06:19:35 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>These programs are compiled using a user specified compiler and set of flags,
|
|
|
|
|
and then executed to capture the program output and timing information. The
|
|
|
|
|
output of these programs is compared to a reference output to ensure that the
|
|
|
|
|
program is being compiled correctly.</p>
|
2008-05-23 19:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>In addition to compiling and executing programs, whole program tests serve as
|
|
|
|
|
a way of benchmarking LLVM performance, both in terms of the efficiency of the
|
|
|
|
|
programs generated as well as the speed with which LLVM compiles, optimizes, and
|
|
|
|
|
generates code.</p>

2008-06-24 20:58:31 +08:00

|
|
<p>The regression test structure is very simple, but does require some
|
|
|
|
|
information to be set. This information is gathered via <tt>configure</tt> and
|
|
|
|
|
is written to a file, <tt>lit.site.cfg</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
in <tt>llvm/test</tt>. The <tt>llvm/test</tt> Makefile does this work for
|
|
|
|
|
you.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>In order for the regression tests to work, each directory of tests must
|
2012-04-18 16:02:25 +08:00
|
|
|
have a <tt>lit.local.cfg</tt> file. Lit looks for this file to determine how
|
|
|
|
|
to run the tests. This file is just Python code and thus is very flexible,
|
2010-08-02 09:20:23 +08:00
|
|
|
but we've standardized it for the LLVM regression tests. If you're adding a
|
2012-04-18 16:02:25 +08:00
|
|
|
directory of tests, just copy <tt>lit.local.cfg</tt> from another directory to
|
|
|
|
|
get running. The standard <tt>lit.local.cfg</tt> simply specifies which files
|
|
|
|
|
to look in for tests. Any directory that contains only directories does not
|
|
|
|
|
need the <tt>lit.local.cfg</tt> file. Read the
|
|
|
|
|
<a href="http://llvm.org/cmds/lit.html">Lit documentation</a> for more
|
|
|
|
|
information. </p>

|
2012-05-09 02:26:07 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>The <tt>llvm-runtests</tt> function looks at each file that is passed to
|
|
|
|
|
it and gathers any lines together that match "RUN:". These are the "RUN" lines
|
|
|
|
|
that specify how the test is to be run. So, each test script must contain
|
|
|
|
|
RUN lines if it is to do anything. If there are no RUN lines, the
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>llvm-runtests</tt> function will issue an error and the test will
|
|
|
|
|
fail.</p>
|
2007-04-15 05:46:15 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>RUN lines are specified in the comments of the test program using the
|
|
|
|
|
keyword <tt>RUN</tt> followed by a colon, and lastly the command (pipeline)
|
|
|
|
|
to execute. Together, these lines form the "script" that
|
2012-05-09 02:26:07 +08:00
|
|
|
<tt>llvm-runtests</tt> executes to run the test case. The syntax of the
|
|
|
|
|
RUN lines is similar to a shell's syntax for pipelines including I/O
|
|
|
|
|
redirection and variable substitution. However, even though these lines
|
|
|
|
|
may <i>look</i> like a shell script, they are not. RUN lines are interpreted
|
|
|
|
|
directly by the Tcl <tt>exec</tt> command. They are never executed by a
|
|
|
|
|
shell. Consequently the syntax differs from normal shell script syntax in a
|
|
|
|
|
few ways. You can specify as many RUN lines as needed.</p>
|
2007-04-15 05:46:15 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2011-01-04 01:30:25 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>lit performs substitution on each RUN line to replace LLVM tool
|
|
|
|
|
names with the full paths to the executable built for each tool (in
|
|
|
|
|
$(LLVM_OBJ_ROOT)/$(BuildMode)/bin). This ensures that lit does not
|
|
|
|
|
invoke any stray LLVM tools in the user's path during testing.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 05:46:15 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>Each RUN line is executed on its own, distinct from other lines unless
|
|
|
|
|
its last character is <tt>\</tt>. This continuation character causes the RUN
|
|
|
|
|
line to be concatenated with the next one. In this way you can build up long
|
|
|
|
|
pipelines of commands without making huge line lengths. The lines ending in
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>\</tt> are concatenated until a RUN line that doesn't end in <tt>\</tt> is
|
2008-05-23 19:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
found. This concatenated set of RUN lines then constitutes one execution.
|
2007-04-15 05:46:15 +08:00
|
|
|
Tcl will substitute variables and arrange for the pipeline to be executed. If
|
|
|
|
|
any process in the pipeline fails, the entire line (and test case) fails too.

|

|
|
<p> Below is an example of legal RUN lines in a <tt>.ll</tt> file:</p>
|
2007-09-22 17:16:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">

|
|
|
|
|
; RUN: llvm-as < %s | llvm-dis > %t1
|
|
|
|
|
; RUN: llvm-dis < %s.bc-13 > %t2
|
|
|
|
|
; RUN: diff %t1 %t2
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|

</div>

2007-04-15 16:01:04 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 07:27:06 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>As with a Unix shell, the RUN: lines permit pipelines and I/O redirection
|
|
|
|
|
to be used. However, the usage is slightly different than for Bash. To check
|
|
|
|
|
what's legal, see the documentation for the
|
|
|
|
|
<a href="http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/TclCmd/exec.htm#M2">Tcl exec</a>
|
|
|
|
|
command and the
|
|
|
|
|
<a href="http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/tutorial/Tcl26.html">tutorial</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
The major differences are:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>You can't do <tt>2>&1</tt>. That will cause Tcl to write to a
|
|
|
|
|
file named <tt>&1</tt>. Usually this is done to get stderr to go through
|
|
|
|
|
a pipe. You can do that in tcl with <tt>|&</tt> so replace this idiom:
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>... 2>&1 | grep</tt> with <tt>... |& grep</tt></li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>You can only redirect to a file, not to another descriptor and not from
|
|
|
|
|
a here document.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>tcl supports redirecting to open files with the @ syntax but you
|
|
|
|
|
shouldn't use that here.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 16:01:04 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>There are some quoting rules that you must pay attention to when writing
|
|
|
|
|
your RUN lines. In general nothing needs to be quoted. Tcl won't strip off any
|
2010-08-02 09:20:23 +08:00
|
|
|
quote characters so they will get passed to the invoked program. For
|
|
|
|
|
example:</p>
|
2007-09-22 17:16:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
... | grep 'find this string'
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 16:01:04 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>This will fail because the ' characters are passed to grep. This would
|
|
|
|
|
instruction grep to look for <tt>'find</tt> in the files <tt>this</tt> and
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>string'</tt>. To avoid this use curly braces to tell Tcl that it should
|
|
|
|
|
treat everything enclosed as one value. So our example would become:</p>
|
2007-09-22 17:16:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
... | grep {find this string}
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 16:01:04 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>Additionally, the characters <tt>[</tt> and <tt>]</tt> are treated
|
|
|
|
|
specially by Tcl. They tell Tcl to interpret the content as a command to
|
|
|
|
|
execute. Since these characters are often used in regular expressions this can
|
|
|
|
|
have disastrous results and cause the entire test run in a directory to fail.
|
|
|
|
|
For example, a common idiom is to look for some basicblock number:</p>
|
2007-09-22 17:16:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
... | grep bb[2-8]
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 16:01:04 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>This, however, will cause Tcl to fail because its going to try to execute
|
|
|
|
|
a program named "2-8". Instead, what you want is this:</p>
|
2007-09-22 17:16:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
... | grep {bb\[2-8\]}
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 16:01:04 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>Finally, if you need to pass the <tt>\</tt> character down to a program,
|
|
|
|
|
then it must be doubled. This is another Tcl special character. So, suppose
|
|
|
|
|
you had:
|
2007-09-22 17:16:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
... | grep 'i32\*'
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 16:01:04 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>This will fail to match what you want (a pointer to i32). First, the
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>'</tt> do not get stripped off. Second, the <tt>\</tt> gets stripped off
|
|
|
|
|
by Tcl so what grep sees is: <tt>'i32*'</tt>. That's not likely to match
|
|
|
|
|
anything. To resolve this you must use <tt>\\</tt> and the <tt>{}</tt>, like
|
|
|
|
|
this:</p>

|
|
|
2009-06-26 13:44:53 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>If your system includes GNU <tt>grep</tt>, make sure
|
|
|
|
|
that <tt>GREP_OPTIONS</tt> is not set in your environment. Otherwise,

<p>A powerful feature of the RUN: lines is that it allows any arbitrary commands
|
|
|
|
|
to be executed as part of the test harness. While standard (portable) unix
|
|
|
|
|
tools like 'grep' work fine on run lines, as you see above, there are a lot
|
2009-08-16 00:51:06 +08:00
|
|
|
of caveats due to interaction with Tcl syntax, and we want to make sure the
|
2009-08-15 23:40:48 +08:00
|
|
|
run lines are portable to a wide range of systems. Another major problem is
|
|
|
|
|
that grep is not very good at checking to verify that the output of a tools
|
|
|
|
|
contains a series of different output in a specific order. The FileCheck
|
|
|
|
|
tool was designed to help with these problems.</p>

<p>FileCheck (whose basic command line arguments are described in <a
|
|
|
|
|
href="http://llvm.org/cmds/FileCheck.html">the FileCheck man page</a> is
|
|
|
|
|
designed to read a file to check from standard input, and the set of things
|
|
|
|
|
to verify from a file specified as a command line argument. A simple example
|
|
|
|
|
of using FileCheck from a RUN line looks like this:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
; RUN: llvm-as < %s | llc -march=x86-64 | <b>FileCheck %s</b>
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This syntax says to pipe the current file ("%s") into llvm-as, pipe that into
|
|
|
|
|
llc, then pipe the output of llc into FileCheck. This means that FileCheck will
|
|
|
|
|
be verifying its standard input (the llc output) against the filename argument
|
|
|
|
|
specified (the original .ll file specified by "%s"). To see how this works,
|
2012-04-18 16:02:25 +08:00
|
|
|
let's look at the rest of the .ll file (after the RUN line):</p>
|
2009-08-16 00:51:06 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">

|
|
|
|
|
define void @sub1(i32* %p, i32 %v) {
|
|
|
|
|

|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
ret void
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
define void @inc4(i64* %p) {
|
|
|
|
|
entry:
|
|
|
|
|
; <b>CHECK: inc4:</b>
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
%0 = tail call i64 @llvm.atomic.load.add.i64.p0i64(i64* %p, i64 1)
|
|
|
|
|
ret void
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|

</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Here you can see some "CHECK:" lines specified in comments. Now you can see
|
|
|
|
|
how the file is piped into llvm-as, then llc, and the machine code output is
|
|
|
|
|
what we are verifying. FileCheck checks the machine code output to verify that
|
|
|
|
|
it matches what the "CHECK:" lines specify.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The syntax of the CHECK: lines is very simple: they are fixed strings that
|
|
|
|
|
must occur in order. FileCheck defaults to ignoring horizontal whitespace
|
|
|
|
|
differences (e.g. a space is allowed to match a tab) but otherwise, the contents
|
|
|
|
|
of the CHECK: line is required to match some thing in the test file exactly.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>One nice thing about FileCheck (compared to grep) is that it allows merging
|
|
|
|
|
test cases together into logical groups. For example, because the test above
|
|
|
|
|
is checking for the "sub1:" and "inc4:" labels, it will not match unless there
|
|
|
|
|
is a "subl" in between those labels. If it existed somewhere else in the file,
|
|
|
|
|
that would not count: "grep subl" matches if subl exists anywhere in the
|
|
|
|
|
file.</p>

<p>The CHECK: and CHECK-NOT: directives both take a pattern to match. For most
|
|
|
|
|
uses of FileCheck, fixed string matching is perfectly sufficient. For some
|
|
|
|
|
things, a more flexible form of matching is desired. To support this, FileCheck
|
|
|
|
|
allows you to specify regular expressions in matching strings, surrounded by
|
|
|
|
|
double braces: <b>{{yourregex}}</b>. Because we want to use fixed string
|
|
|
|
|
matching for a majority of what we do, FileCheck has been designed to support
|
|
|
|
|
mixing and matching fixed string matching with regular expressions. This allows
|
|
|
|
|
you to write things like this:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
; CHECK: movhpd <b>{{[0-9]+}}</b>(%esp), <b>{{%xmm[0-7]}}</b>
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>In this case, any offset from the ESP register will be allowed, and any xmm
|
|
|
|
|
register will be allowed.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Because regular expressions are enclosed with double braces, they are
|
|
|
|
|
visually distinct, and you don't need to use escape characters within the double
|
|
|
|
|
braces like you would in C. In the rare case that you want to match double
|
|
|
|
|
braces explicitly from the input, you can use something ugly like
|
|
|
|
|
<b>{{[{][{]}}</b> as your pattern.</p>

<p>It is often useful to match a pattern and then verify that it occurs again
|
|
|
|
|
later in the file. For codegen tests, this can be useful to allow any register,
|
|
|
|
|
but verify that that register is used consistently later. To do this, FileCheck
|
|
|
|
|
allows named variables to be defined and substituted into patterns. Here is a
|
|
|
|
|
simple example:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
; CHECK: test5:
|
2009-09-27 16:01:44 +08:00
|
|
|
; CHECK: notw <b>[[REGISTER:%[a-z]+]]</b>
|
|
|
|
|
; CHECK: andw {{.*}}<b>[[REGISTER]]</b>
|
2009-09-27 15:56:52 +08:00
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2009-09-27 16:01:44 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>The first check line matches a regex (<tt>%[a-z]+</tt>) and captures it into
|
|
|
|
|
the variables "REGISTER". The second line verifies that whatever is in REGISTER
|
|
|
|
|
occurs later in the file after an "andw". FileCheck variable references are
|
|
|
|
|
always contained in <tt>[[ ]]</tt> pairs, are named, and their names can be
|
|
|
|
|
formed with the regex "<tt>[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*</tt>". If a colon follows the
|
|
|
|
|
name, then it is a definition of the variable, if not, it is a use.</p>
|
2009-09-27 15:56:52 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>FileCheck variables can be defined multiple times, and uses always get the
|
|
|
|
|
latest value. Note that variables are all read at the start of a "CHECK" line
|
|
|
|
|
and are all defined at the end. This means that if you have something like
|
|
|
|
|
"<tt>CHECK: [[XYZ:.*]]x[[XYZ]]</tt>" that the check line will read the previous
|
|
|
|
|
value of the XYZ variable and define a new one after the match is performed. If
|
|
|
|
|
you need to do something like this you can probably take advantage of the fact
|
|
|
|
|
that FileCheck is not actually line-oriented when it matches, this allows you to
|
|
|
|
|
define two separate CHECK lines that match on the same line.
|
|
|
|
|

|

<p>With a RUN line there are a number of substitutions that are permitted. In

|
|
|
general, any Tcl variable that is available in the <tt>substitute</tt>
|
|
|

function (in <tt>test/lib/llvm.exp</tt>) can be substituted into a RUN line.
|
|

To make a substitution just write the variable's name preceded by a $.

|
Additionally, for compatibility reasons with previous versions of the test

the <tt>test/Makefile</tt> that creates the <tt>site.exp</tt> file. This will

|
"set" the variable as a global in the site.exp file. Second, in the
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>test/lib/llvm.exp</tt> file, in the substitute proc, add the variable name
|
|
|
|
|
to the list of "global" declarations at the beginning of the proc. That's it,
|
|
|
|
|
the variable can then be used in test scripts.</p>

<p>To make RUN line writing easier, there are several shell scripts located
|
2008-05-23 19:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
in the <tt>llvm/test/Scripts</tt> directory. This directory is in the PATH
|
|
|
|
|
when running tests, so you can just call these scripts using their name. For
|
|
|
|
|
example:</p>
|
2007-04-15 05:46:15 +08:00
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
|
|
|
<dt><b>ignore</b></dt>
|
|
|
|
|
<dd>This script runs its arguments and then always returns 0. This is useful
|
|
|
|
|
in cases where the test needs to cause a tool to generate an error (e.g. to
|
|
|
|
|
check the error output). However, any program in a pipeline that returns a
|
|
|
|
|
non-zero result will cause the test to fail. This script overcomes that
|
|
|
|
|
issue and nicely documents that the test case is purposefully ignoring the
|
|
|
|
|
result code of the tool</dd>
|
2007-09-22 17:16:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 05:46:15 +08:00
|
|
|
<dt><b>not</b></dt>
|
|
|
|
|
<dd>This script runs its arguments and then inverts the result code from
|
|
|
|
|
it. Zero result codes become 1. Non-zero result codes become 0. This is
|
|
|
|
|
useful to invert the result of a grep. For example "not grep X" means
|
|
|
|
|
succeed only if you don't find X in the input.</dd>
|
|
|
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Sometimes it is necessary to mark a test case as "expected fail" or XFAIL.
|
2010-02-23 15:56:28 +08:00
|
|
|
You can easily mark a test as XFAIL just by including <tt>XFAIL: </tt> on a
|
2007-04-15 05:46:15 +08:00
|
|
|
line near the top of the file. This signals that the test case should succeed
|
2010-08-02 09:20:23 +08:00
|
|
|
if the test fails. Such test cases are counted separately by the testing tool. To
|
2007-04-15 05:46:15 +08:00
|
|
|
specify an expected fail, use the XFAIL keyword in the comments of the test
|
|
|
|
|
program followed by a colon and one or more regular expressions (separated by
|
2010-02-23 15:56:28 +08:00
|
|
|
a comma). The regular expressions allow you to XFAIL the test conditionally by
|
|
|
|
|
host platform. The regular expressions following the : are matched against the
|
|
|
|
|
target triplet for the host machine. If there is a match, the test is expected
|
|
|
|
|
to fail. If not, the test is expected to succeed. To XFAIL everywhere just
|
|
|
|
|
specify <tt>XFAIL: *</tt>. Here is an example of an <tt>XFAIL</tt> line:</p>
|
2007-09-22 17:16:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="doc_code">

2010-02-23 15:56:28 +08:00

|
2007-09-22 17:16:44 +08:00

</pre>

|
|
|
|
2012-05-09 02:26:07 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>To make the output more useful, the <tt>llvm_runtest</tt> function wil
|
|
|
|
|
scan the lines of the test case for ones that contain a pattern that matches
|
|
|
|
|
PR[0-9]+. This is the syntax for specifying a PR (Problem Report) number that
|
|
|
|
|
is related to the test case. The number after "PR" specifies the LLVM bugzilla
|
|
|
|
|
number. When a PR number is specified, it will be used in the pass/fail
|
|
|
|
|
reporting. This is useful to quickly get some context when a test fails.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-15 05:46:15 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>Finally, any line that contains "END." will cause the special
|
|
|
|
|
interpretation of lines to terminate. This is generally done right after the
|
|
|
|
|
last RUN: line. This has two side effects: (a) it prevents special
|
|
|
|
|
interpretation of lines that are part of the test program, not the
|
|
|
|
|
instructions to the test case, and (b) it speeds things up for really big test
|
|
|
|
|
cases by avoiding interpretation of the remainder of the file.</p>

there are some testing scenarios which are not supported by the LNT approach. In

addition, LNT currently uses the Makefile setup under the covers and so

developers who are interested in how LNT works under the hood may want to
