simple one is simply running gmake with no arguments. This will
compile and run all programs in the tree using a number of different methods
and compare results. Any failures are reported in the output, but are likely
- drowned in the other output. Passes are not reported explicitely.
+ drowned in the other output. Passes are not reported explicitly.
Somewhat better is running gmake TEST=sometest test, which runs
the specified test and usually adds per-program summaries to the output
(depending on which sometest you use). For example, the nightly test
- explicitely outputs TEST-PASS or TEST-FAIL for every test after each program.
+ explicitly outputs TEST-PASS or TEST-FAIL for every test after each program.
Though these lines are still drowned in the output, it's easy to grep the
output logs in the Output directories.
