11.1SjmmvThe tests in this directory where written at the same time tmpfs was 21.1Sjmmvdeveloped. This is why, if you follow the order of tests in the Atffile, 31.1Sjmmvyou will notice that they start checking the most basic things and end 41.1Sjmmvchecking the less common ones. Furthermore, tests try not to use features 51.1Sjmmvtested by further tests in the lists. 61.1Sjmmv 71.1SjmmvHowever, the above is not the most appropriate testing procedure when you 81.1Sjmmvhave a working file system because some separation in test programs does 91.1Sjmmvnot make sense afterwards. 101.1Sjmmv 111.1SjmmvMany of the tests here are applicable to any file system. They should be 121.1Sjmmvrefactored to be reusable on any mounted file system, which could also 131.1Sjmmvremove the need to do the mount/unmount steps in each and every test case. 141.1Sjmmv 151.1SjmmvPossibly take a look at the file system tests in FreeBSD. They seem to be 161.1Sjmmvmuch more complete, even though they are written in Perl and therefore not 171.1Sjmmvdirectly usable. 18
