Changes in README http://nxr.netbsd.org/rss/src/external/bsd/atf/dist/README en Copyright 2005 Java branches: 1.1.1; Initial revision /src/external/bsd/atf/dist/README - 1.1 Mon Jan 19 07:11:51 UTC 2009 jmmv Import atf-0.20: Experimental version released on February 7th, 2014. This is the first release without the code for the deprecated tools. If you require such code, please fetch a copy of the 0.19 release and extract the 'tools' directory for your own consumption. * Removed the deprecated tools. This includes atf-config, atf-report, atf-run and atf-version. /src/external/bsd/atf/dist/README - 1.1.1.4 Tue Feb 11 16:07:06 UTC 2014 jmmv branches: 1.1.1.3.6; 1.1.1.3.12; Import atf 0.10: Miscellaneous features * Added expected failures support to test cases and atf-run. These include, for example, expected clean exits, expected reception of fatal signals, expected timeouts and expected errors in condition checks. These statuses can be used to denote test cases that are known to fail due to a bug in the code they are testing. atf-report reports these tests separately but they do not count towards the failed test cases amount. * Added the ATF_CHECK_ERRNO and ATF_REQUIRE_ERRNO to the C library to allow easy checking of call failures that update errno. * Added the has.cleanup meta-data property to test caes that specifies whether the test case has a cleanup routine or not; its value is automatically set. This property is read by atf-run to know if it has to run the cleanup routine; skipping this run for every test case significantly speeds up the run time of test suites. * Reversed the order of the ATF_CHECK_THROW macro in the C++ binding to take the expected exception as the first argument and the statement to execute as the second argument. Changes in atf-check * Changed atf-check to support negating the status and output checks by prefixing them with not- and added support to specify multiple checkers for stdout and stderr, not only one. * Added the match output checker to atf-check to look for regular expressions in the stdout and stderr of commands. * Modified the exit checks in atf-check to support checking for the reception of signals. Code simplifications and cleanups * Removed usage messages from test programs to simplify the implementation of every binding by a significant amount. They just now refer the user to the appropriate manual page and do not attempt to wrap lines on terminal boundaries. Test programs are not supposed to be run by users directly so this minor interface regression is not important. * Removed the atf-format internal utility, which is unused after the change documented above. * Removed the atf-cleanup internal utility. It has been unused since the test case isolation was moved to atf-run in 0.8 * Splitted the Makefile.am into smaller files for easier maintenance and dropped the use of M4. Only affects users building from the repository sources. * Intermixed tests with the source files in the source tree to provide them more visibility and easier access. The tests directory is gone from the source tree and tests are now suffixed by _test, not prefixed by t_. * Simplifications to the atf-c library: removed the io, tcr and ui modules as they had become unnecessary after all simplifications introduced since the 0.8 release. * Removed the application/X-atf-tcr format introduced in 0.8 release. Tests now print a much simplified format that is easy to parse and nicer to read by end users. As a side effect, the default for test cases is now to print their results to stdout unless otherwise stated by providing the -r flag. * Removed XML distribution documents and replaced them with plain-text documents. They provided little value and introduced a lot of complexity to the build system. * Simplified the output of atf-version by not attempting to print a revision number when building form a distfile. Makes the build system easier to maintain. /src/external/bsd/atf/dist/README - 1.1.1.3 Sat Jul 03 08:04:47 UTC 2010 jmmv Import atf 0.7. Changes in this release: * Added build-time checks to atf-c and atf-c++. A binding for atf-sh will come later. * Migrated all build-time checks for header files to proper ATF tests. This demonstrates the use of the new feature described above. * Added an internal API for child process management. * Converted all plain-text distribution documents to a Docbook canonical version, and include pre-generated plain text and HTML copies in the distribution file. * Simplified the contents of the Makefile.am by regenerating it from a canonical Makefile.am.m4 source. As a side-effect, some dependency specifications were fixed. * Migrated all checks from the check target to installcheck, as these require ATF to be installed. * Fixed sign comparison mismatches triggered by the now-enabled -Wsign-compare. * Fixed many memory and object leaks. /src/external/bsd/atf/dist/README - 1.1.1.2 Tue Dec 22 13:25:45 UTC 2009 jmmv Import ATF 0.6. Replaces the old ATF 0.5 that was in dist/atf. Changes in this release: * Make atf-exec be able to kill its child process after a certain period of time; this is controlled through the new -t option. * Change atf-sh to use atf-exec's -t option to control the test case's timeouts, instead of doing it internally. Same behavior as before, but noticeably faster. * atf-exec's -g option and atf-killpg are gone due to the previous change. * Added the atf-check(1) tool, a program that executes a given command and checks its exit code against a known value and allows the management of stdout and stderr in multiple ways. This replaces the previous atf_check function in the atf-sh library and exposes this functionality to both atf-c and atf-c++. * Added the ATF_REQUIRE family of macros to the C interface. These help in checking for fatal test conditions. The old ATF_CHECK macros now perform non-fatal checks only. I.e. by using ATF_CHECK, the test case can now continue its execution and the failures will not be reported until the end of the whole run. * Extended the amount of ATF_CHECK_* C macros with new ones to provide more features to the developer. These also have their corresponding counterparts in the ATF_REQUIRE_* family. The new macros (listing the suffixes only) are: _EQ (replaces _EQUAL), _EQ_MSG, _STREQ and _STREQ_MSG. /src/external/bsd/atf/dist/README - 1.1.1.1 Mon Jan 19 07:11:51 UTC 2009 jmmv Rebase to HEAD as of a few days ago. /src/external/bsd/atf/dist/README - 1.1.1.3.12.1 Tue Aug 19 23:45:53 UTC 2014 tls sync with head. for a reference, the tree before this commit was tagged as yamt-pagecache-tag8. this commit was splitted into small chunks to avoid a limitation of cvs. ("Protocol error: too many arguments") /src/external/bsd/atf/dist/README - 1.1.1.3.6.1 Thu May 22 15:40:11 UTC 2014 yamt
