ptest-runner2
The ptest-runner2 is C written program for run ptests of Yocto/Openembedded, is fully compatible with previous version of ptest-runner [1] that was a shell script that runs ptests sequencially.
What's new in ptest-runner2?
The mainly reason for the new ptest-runner in C is because is designed for run in tiny systems also the old shell script version have problems when certain ptest hang it becomes blocked indefinitely.
Now the ptest-runner2 support the next features:
- Specify the directory for search ptests.
- List available ptests.
- Specify the timeout for avoid blocking indefinetly.
- Only run certain ptests.
- XML-ouput
Proposed features:
- Adds support for per ptest output file.
- Adds support for run ptests in parallel (review possible colisions in ptests).
How to compile?
$ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/ptest-runner2
$ cd ptest-runner2
$ make
How to run testsuite?
For run the test suite you need to install check unittest framework [2],
$ make check
Also if you want to run memory leaks tests you need mcheck available in glibc,
$ MEMCHECK=1 make
$ export MALLOC_TRACE=/tmp/t
$ ./ptest-runner -d tests/data -t 1
$ mtrace ./ptest-runner $MALLOC_TRACE
