| To run the test suite, change to this directory and run "./runtest". It will |
| run all of the test cases, and list those with unexpected outcomes. Adding the |
| -v option will cause it to show expected outcomes as well. To only run the test |
| cases for particular applets: |
| |
| ./runtest <applet1> <applet2>... |
| |
| Set SKIP_KNOWN_BUGS environment variable to any non-empty value |
| to exclude tests which are known to fail. |
| |
| Set SKIP_INTERNET_TESTS to exclude tests which require working |
| internet connection. |
| |
| |
| Common causes of false positives: |
| |
| For busybox built against uclibc, /etc/TZ does not exist or does not match |
| host system timezone setting. For glibc based host systems, timezone settings |
| are in /etc/localtime. |
| |
| LANG and LC_xxx environment variables set to non-C locale. |
| |
| |
| Developer's notes: |
| |
| The test cases for an applet reside in the subdirectory of the applet name. |
| The name of the test case should be the assertion that is tested. |
| The test case should be a shell fragment that returns successfully |
| if the test case passes, and unsuccessfully otherwise. |
| |
| If the test case relies on a certain feature, it should include the string |
| "FEATURE: " followed by the name of the feature in a comment. If it is always |
| expected to fail, it should include the string "XFAIL" in a comment. |
