Letting the full test suite run in-tree fails almost immediately
because amend.test called repo_init which cannot be run inside a
checkout.
Any tests that require their own repository will fail if you run it from
within an open checkout. There are many test files that use repo_init.
Exactly. And I think it is a good idea for the test suite to run from a
folder outside of all checkouts for a lot of reasons.
* What am I missing here?
I usually do something like:
TESTDIR=/tmp/fossil-test
SRC=/path/to/repository
FOSSIL=$SRC/fossil
mkdir $TESTDIR
cd $TESTDIR
tclsh $SRC/test/tester.tcl $FOSSIL
Aside from the convenient variable declarations, that is what failed for me.
Does that work for you (anyone?) right now from trunk?
* Does "make test" work for anyone right now?
I've never used it, didn't even know there was a test target. I usually
follow:
http://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/doc/trunk/test/release-checklist.wiki
Specifically, what I mentioned above is really just step 1.
Which is where I started.
And that fails for me because a passel of cases in file1.test and
th1.test appear to require an open checkout, but don't provide one by
calling repo_init.
The very last test case in th1.test uses th1 to read a source file from
the repository, and so would require that it specifically run from an
open checkout of fossil's own repository. That could easily be changed
(and IMHO should be changed) to use a file checked into a test repo
instead, which would also eliminate a surprise dependence of a th1 test
case on the content of ajax/cgi-bin/fossil-json.cgi.example.
Before I dive into writing more test cases, I want to have the
confidence that I understand the existing test suite, and having a clean
build from trunk fail to pass all tests is not helping...
