We're in the process of converting the existing testsuite machinery to
use the new style DejaGnu framework.  Eventually, we'll abandon
../mkcheck.in in favor of this new testsuite framework.


// 1: How to write a testcase
As per the dejagnu instructions, always return 0 from main to indicate
success.

Basically, a testcase contains dg-keywords (see dg.exp) indicating
what to do and what kinds of behaviour are to be expected.  New
testcases should be written with the new style DejaGnu framework in
mind.

To ease transition, here is the list of dg-keyword documentation
lifted from dg.exp -- eventually we should improve DejaGnu
documentation, but getting checkin account currently demands Pyrrhic
effort. 

# The currently supported options are:
#
# dg-prms-id N
#	set prms_id to N
#
# dg-options "options ..." [{ target selector }]
#	specify special options to pass to the tool (eg: compiler)
#
# dg-do do-what-keyword [{ target/xfail selector }]
#	`do-what-keyword' is tool specific and is passed unchanged to
#	${tool}-dg-test.  An example is gcc where `keyword' can be any of:
#	preprocess|compile|assemble|link|run
#	and will do one of: produce a .i, produce a .s, produce a .o,
#	produce an a.out, or produce an a.out and run it (the default is
#	compile).
#
# dg-error regexp comment [{ target/xfail selector } [{.|0|linenum}]]
#	indicate an error message <regexp> is expected on this line
#	(the test fails if it doesn't occur)
#	Linenum=0 for general tool messages (eg: -V arg missing).
#	"." means the current line.
#
# dg-warning regexp comment [{ target/xfail selector } [{.|0|linenum}]]
#	indicate a warning message <regexp> is expected on this line
#	(the test fails if it doesn't occur)
#
# dg-bogus regexp comment [{ target/xfail selector } [{.|0|linenum}]]
#	indicate a bogus error message <regexp> use to occur here
#	(the test fails if it does occur)
#
# dg-build regexp comment [{ target/xfail selector }]
#	indicate the build use to fail for some reason
#	(errors covered here include bad assembler generated, tool crashes,
#	and link failures)
#	(the test fails if it does occur)
#
# dg-excess-errors comment [{ target/xfail selector }]
#	indicate excess errors are expected (any line)
#	(this should only be used sparingly and temporarily)
#
# dg-output regexp [{ target selector }]
#	indicate the expected output of the program is <regexp>
#	(there may be multiple occurrences of this, they are concatenated)
#
# dg-final { tcl code }
#	add some tcl code to be run at the end
#	(there may be multiple occurrences of this, they are concatenated)
#	(unbalanced braces must be \-escaped)
#
# "{ target selector }" is a list of expressions that determine whether the
# test succeeds or fails for a particular target, or in some cases whether the
# option applies for a particular target.  If the case of `dg-do' it specifies
# whether the testcase is even attempted on the specified target.
#
# The target selector is always optional.  The format is one of:
#
# { xfail *-*-* ... } - the test is expected to fail for the given targets
# { target *-*-* ... } - the option only applies to the given targets
#
# At least one target must be specified, use *-*-* for "all targets".
# At present it is not possible to specify both `xfail' and `target'.
# "native" may be used in place of "*-*-*".

Example 1: Testing compilation only
(to just have a testcase do compile testing, without linking and executing)
// { dg-do compile }

Example 2: Testing for expected warings on line 36
// { dg-warning "string literals" "" { xfail *-*-* } 36

Example 3: Testing for compilation errors on line 41
// { dg-do compile }
// { dg-error "no match for" "" { xfail *-*-* } 41 }

More examples can be found in the libstdc++-v3/testsuite/*/*.cc files.


// 2: Test harness notes, invocation, and debugging.
Configuring the dejagnu harness to work with libstdc++-v3 in a cross
compilation environment has been maddening. However, it does work now,
and on a variety of platforms. Including solaris, linux, and cygwin.

To debug the test harness during runs, try invoking with

make check-target-libstdc++-v3 RUNTESTFLAGS="-v"
or
make check-target-libstdc++-v3 RUNTESTFLAGS="-v -v"

There are two ways to run on a simulator: set up DEJAGNU to point to a
specially crafted site.exp, or pass down --target_board flags.

Example flags to pass down for various embedded builds are as follows:

--target=powerpc-eabism (libgloss/sim)
make check-target-libstdc++-v3 RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=powerpc-sim"

--target=calmrisc32 (libgloss/sid)
make check-target-libstdc++-v3 RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=calmrisc32-sid"

--target=xscale-elf (newlib/sim)
make check-target-libstdc++-v3 RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=arm-sim"


// 3: Future plans, to be done
Shared runs need to be implemented, for targets that support shared libraries.

Diffing of expected output to standard streams needs to be finished off.

The V3 testing framework supports, or will eventually support,
additional keywords for the purpose of easing the job of writing
testcases.  All V3-keywords are of the form @xxx@.  Currently plans
for supported keywords include:

  @require@ <files>
      The existence of <files> is essential for the test to complete
      successfully.  For example, a testcase foo.C using bar.baz as
      input file could say
	    // @require@ bar.baz
      The special variable % stands for the rootname, e.g. the
      file-name without its `.C' extension.  Example of use (taken
      verbatim from 27_io/filebuf.cc)
	   // @require@ %-*.tst %-*.txt

  @diff@ <first-list> <second-list>
      After the testcase compiles and ran successfully, diff
      <first-list> against <second-list>, these lists should have the
      same length.  The test fails if diff returns non-zero a pair of
      files.

Current testing problems with cygwin-hosted tools:

There are two known problems which I have not addressed.  The first is
that when testing cygwin hosted tools from the unix build dir, it does
the wrong thing building the wrapper program (testglue.c) because host
and target are the same in site.exp (host and target are the same from
the perspective of the target libraries)

Problem number two is a little more annoying.  In order for me to make
v3 testing work on Windows, I had to tell dejagnu to copy over the
debug_assert.h file to the remote host and then set the includes to
-I./.  This is how all the other tests like this are done so I didn't
think much of it.  However, this had some unfortunate results due to
gcc having a testcase called "limits" and C++ having an include file
called "limits".  The gcc "limits" binary was in the temporary dir
when the v3 tests were being built.  As a result, the gcc "limits"
binary was being #included rather than the intended one.  The only way
to fix this is to go through the testsuites and make sure binaries are
deleted on the remote host when testing is done with them.  That is a
lot more work than I want to do so I worked around it by cleaning out
D:\kermit on compsognathus and rerunning tests.
