Set up the /usr/tests hierarchy.
This is a MFC of the following into stable/10:
- r257097 Set up the /usr/tests hierarchy.
- r257098 Add missing WITHOUTTESTS file.
- r257100 Add a tests(7) manual page.
- r257105 Disable WITHTESTS= for now.
- r257848 Fix buildworld when WITHTESTS is enabled.
- r257850 Subsume the functionality of MKATF into MKTESTS.
- r257851 Handle the removal of the test suite when WITHOUTTESTS=yes.
- r257852 Install category Kyuafiles from their category directories.
- r258232 Install BSD.tests.mtree when MKTESTS is yes.
Note that building with WITH_TESTS is still broken at this point (and
hence why WITHOUT_TESTS is the set as the default). Subsequent pullups
will fix the remaining issues.

+Before diving into the details of how to run the test suite, here are some +scenarios in which you should be running them: +.Bl -bullet -offset indent +.It +After a fresh installation of +.Fx +to ensure that the system works correctly on your hardware platform. +.It +After an upgrade of +.Fx +to a different version to ensure that the new code works well on your +hardware platform and that the upgrade did not introduce regressions in your +configuration. +.It +After performing changes to the source tree to catch any bugs and/or regressions +introduced by the modifications. +.It +Periodically, maybe from a +.Xr cron 8 +job, to ensure that any changes to the system (such as the installation of +third-party packages or manual modifications to configuration files) do not +introduce unexpected failures. +.El +.Ss Running the tests +First of all, you will need to install the +.Sq ports/devel/kyua +package. +.Pp +Use the following command to run the whole test suite: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +$ kyua test -k /usr/tests/Kyuafile +.Ed +.Pp +The above will go through all test programs in +.Pa /usr/tests +recursively, execute them, store their results and debugging data in Kyua +database (by default in +.Pa ~/.kyua/store.db ) , +and print a summary of the results. +This summary includes a brief count of all total tests run and how many of +them failed. +.Pp +It is possible to restrict which tests to run by providing their names in +the command line. +For example, this would execute the tests for the +.Xr cp 1 +and +.Xr cut 1 +utilities: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +$ kyua test -k /usr/tests/Kyuafile bin/cp usr.bin/cut +.Ed +.Ss Obtaining reports of the tests execution +Additional information of the results of the execution can be later extracted +from the database by using the various reporting commands of Kyua. +For example, the following would extract a plain-text report of the executed +tests and show which ones failed: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +$ kyua report +.Ed +.Pp +This other example would generate an HTML report ready to be published on a +web server: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +$ kyua report-html --output ~/public_html/tests +.Ed +.Pp +For further details on the command-line interface of Kyua, please refer +to its manual page +.Xr kyua 1 . +.\".Ss Configuring the tests +.\"Some test cases in the +.\".Fx +.\"test suite require the administrator to manually set up some configuration +.\"properties before they can run. +.\"Unless these properties are defined, the tests that require them will be marked +.\"as skipped and thus they will not be really executed. +.\".Pp +.\"Test suites are configured by defining the values to their configuration +.\"variables in +.\".Pa /usr/local/etc/kyua/kyua.conf . +.\"The format of this file is detailed in +.\".Xr kyua.conf 5 . +.\".Pp +.\"The following configuration variables are available in the +.\".Fx +.\"test suite: +.\".Bl -tag +.\".It NONE REGISTERED YET +.\"TBD. +.Ss What to do if something fails?
