"test.run yes" means "you can run 'sudo port test' to run the tests". Trying to run "sudo port test" without "test.run yes" in the portfile will generate an error that running tests is not supported by this port. > But it seems that the option is automagically added to the Perl modules > already. Yes, the perl5 portgroup sets "test.run yes". I guess perl modules are required to have tests. >>> Is there any shortcut to build + test + install at the same time >>> without modifying the port? >> >> You can also override many of the Portfile options on the command line, >> for example like this: >> >> sudo port test p5.20-foo test.run=yes >> >> There is no way to do an install with the tests other than running >> separate commands for 'port test' and then 'port install'. > > It would be nice if there was a way to run tests with a single command. > > Also, it might be handy to have "depends_test" available. Agreed. It's been filed but no evidence anybody's worked on it yet. https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38208 _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
