----------- For: User ----------- The following make variables may help you in testing: - UCLIBC_ONLY - only run tests against uClibc - GLIBC_ONLY - only run tests against glibc - COMPILE_ONLY - just build the tests, don't run them - CHECK_ONLY - only run the tests, don't compile or link them - V / VERBOSE - run tests with a lot of output So, to just run the uClibc tests, try this: make check UCLIBC_ONLY=1 ---------------- For: Developer ---------------- The structure of this test system is: test/ toplevel dir containing common test code test/Rules.mak Common build code test/Test.mak Runtime test make code test/subdir/ code specific to a subsystem is stored in a subdir test/subdir/Makefile describe the tests to run test/subdir/*.c the tests Each subdir Makefile must include the toplevel Test.mak file. Before doing so, you may define the TESTS and TESTS_DISABLED variables. If you do not, TESTS is built automatically based upon all the .c files in the subdir. TESTS := foo TESTS_DISABLED := bar include ../Test.mak Each test must use a similar .c name; so the "foo" test needs a "foo.c". Additionally, the following options further control specific test behavior: CFLAGS_foo := extra cflags to use to compile test DODIFF_foo := compare the output of the glibc and uClibc tests (see below) LDFLAGS_foo := extra ldflags to use to link test OPTS_foo := extra options to pass to test RET_foo := expected exit code of test; default is 0 WRAPPER_foo := execute stuff just before test Or to control all tests in a subdir: EXTRA_CLEAN := extra files to remove in the clean target EXTRA_CFLAGS := -DFOO EXTRA_LDFLAGS := -lpthread OPTS := WRAPPER := If you want to compare the output of a test with known good output, then just create a local file named "foo.out.good" and the output generated by the test "foo" will be automatically stored in "foo.out" and compared to "foo.out.good".
