runtest - DejaGnu test driver
DejaGnu is a framework for testing programs using Expect.
runtest is the driver program for DejaGnu. It controls what
tests to run and how to run them.
- --all, -a
- Output all test results. By default, only unexpected results are
displayed.
- --build TRIPLET
- The configuration TRIPLET for the build system.
- --debug
- Turn on Expect internal debugging output. The output is logged to a
file called dbg.log.
- --directory DIRECTORY
- Run only tests in the specified DIRECTORY.
- --help
- Prints a usage message and then exits.
- --host TRIPLET
- The configuration TRIPLET for the host system.
- --host_board NAME
- The host board definition to use.
- --ignore test1.exp test2.exp ...
- Do not run the specified tests.
- --log_dialog
- Emit Expect output to standard output.
- --mail ´name1 name2 ...´
- Electronic mail addresses to receive test results.
- --name HOSTNAME
- The network HOSTNAME of the target board.
- --objdir PATH
- PATH is a directory containing compiled test code.
- --outdir DIRECTORY
- The name of a DIRECTORY for test log output.
- --reboot
- Reboot the target board when runtest initializes (if
supported).
- --srcdir PATH
- PATH is a directory containing test directories.
- --strace N
- Turns on Expect internal tracing to N levels deep. The
output is logged to a file called dbg.log.
- --target TRIPLET
- The configuration TRIPLET for the target.
- --target_board NAME
- A list of target board NAMEs to run tests on.
- --tool TOOLNAME
- Specify the tool to be tested. TOOLNAME controls the test suite
applied, and the associated initialization module.
- --tool_exec PATH
- Specify the PATH to the executable to test.
- --tool_opts OPTIONS
- Additional OPTIONS to pass to the tool.
- -v, --verbose
- Turns on more debugging output from test cases and DejaGnu utility code.
Use more than once to increase output further.
- -V, --version
- Prints out the versions of DejaGnu, Expect and Tcl.
- -x, --xml
- Generate XML output. The output file is named after the tool with an .xml
extension.
- -D[number]
- Activate the Tcl debugger. number can be either 1 or 0. If it is 1,
then the Expect shell will break when it starts to run. The interrupt key
will cause DejaGnu to drop to the debugger prompt. If it is 0, DejaGnu
starts as usual, but Control-C drops to the debugger prompt.
- Any file name on the command
line is assumed to be a subset of the
- test names to run. Usually these are the names of the test scripts (eg.
foo.exp).
Makefile-style variables are used to specify tool names and their
flags; these and other configuration dependent values are saved in the file
site.exp, created during configuration.
- 0
- if all tests passed including expected failures and unsupported
tests,
- 1
- if any test failed, passed unexpectedly, or was unresolved,
- 2
- if Expect encountered any error in the test scripts.
