I note that there are some notes on the OpenJDK website about running
tests.
See here: http://openjdk.java.net/jtreg/#makefile
In particular, it includes this text:
When using these targets, it is recommended to set the following
variables, either as environment variables or on the "make" command
line:
* |JT_HOME|: the jtreg installation directory
* |PRODUCT_HOME|: the JDK build to be tested: this is typically a
file path ending in /j2sdk-image/
If someone makes any changes such that this is no longer true, please
let me know so that I can update these notes.
The PRODUCT_HOME is definitiely still correct, I set this when running
test from the build-infra makefile. However, the documentation does not
seem to mention what this is about: some way to override were test
output/logs are stored. This is currently hard-coded in langtools. In
jdk, there is a default but it is possible to override, which is used by
the build-infra makefile.
It would probably make sense to make such a override mechanism official
and documented, once you all have agreed on a good name on the variable. ;-)
