Hello makefile gurus,
To provide the next level of support to the tiered testing policy [1],
I'd like to get some advice on how best to tackle
JDK-8075571: Support tier1 and tier2 make targets
From the bug, currently one can invoke test groups like so:
make test-only TEST=jdk_lang
That this, this above make command will run the tests in the ":jdk_lang"
test group. By applying the simple edit
diff -r df4d75f58f15 test/Makefile
--- a/test/Makefile Thu May 28 11:31:40 2015 -0700
+++ b/test/Makefile Tue Jun 02 13:00:06 2015 -0700

for each in $@; do \
$(MAKE) -j 1 TEST_SELECTION=":$$each" UNIQUE_DIR=$$each
jtreg_tests; \
to the test/Makefile, I was hoping
make test-only TEST=tier1
would in turn be able to run the ":tier1" test group. But alas, that
does not occur and I don't see what is (not) happening for that omission
to take place.
Thanks,
