Libcharset testcases
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Testcases for Libcharset are self-contained binaries which test various parts
|
|
of the charset library. These may make use of external data files to drive
|
|
the testing.
|
|
|
|
Testcase command lines
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Testcase command lines are in a unified format, thus:
|
|
|
|
<aliases_file> [ <data_file> ]
|
|
|
|
The aliases file parameter will always be specified (as it is required for
|
|
the library to work at all).
|
|
|
|
The data file parameter is optional and may be provided on a test-by-test
|
|
basis.
|
|
|
|
Testcase output
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Testcases may output anything at all to stdout. The final line of the
|
|
output must begin with either PASS or FAIL (case sensitive), indicating
|
|
the success status of the test.
|
|
|
|
Test Index
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
In the test sources directory, is a file, named INDEX, which provides an
|
|
index of all available test binaries. Any new test applications should be
|
|
added to this index as they are created.
|
|
|
|
The test index file format is as follows:
|
|
|
|
file = *line
|
|
|
|
line = ( entry / comment / blank ) LF
|
|
|
|
entry = testname 1*HTAB description [ 1*HTAB datadir ]
|
|
comment = "#" *non-newline
|
|
blank = 0<OCTET>
|
|
|
|
testname = 1*non-reserved
|
|
description = 1*non-reserved
|
|
datadir = 1*non-reserved
|
|
|
|
non-newline = VCHAR / WSP
|
|
non-reserved = VCHAR / SP
|
|
|
|
Each entry contains a mandatory binary name and description followed by
|
|
an optional data directory specifier. The data directory specifier is
|
|
used to state the name of the directory containing data files for the
|
|
test name. This directory will be searched for within the "data"
|
|
directory in the source tree.
|
|
|
|
If a data directory is specified, the test binary will be invoked for
|
|
each data file listed within the data directory INDEX, passing the
|
|
filename as the second parameter (<data_file>, above).
|
|
|
|
Data Index
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Each test data directory contains a file, named INDEX, which provides an
|
|
index of all available test data files.
|
|
|
|
The data index file format is as follows:
|
|
|
|
file = *line
|
|
|
|
line = ( entry / comment / blank ) LF
|
|
|
|
entry = dataname 1*HTAB description
|
|
comment = "#" *non-newline
|
|
blank = 0<OCTET>
|
|
|
|
dataname = 1*non-reserved
|
|
description = 1*non-reserved
|
|
|
|
non-newline = VCHAR / WSP
|
|
non-reserved = VCHAR / SP
|
|
|
|
Each entry contains a mandatory data file name and description.
