Subject: [openssl-dev] Code Health Tuesday - test modernisation

Next week on the 11th of April it is Code Health Tuesday again.

This fortnight it will be about updating the C unit tests to use the test 
framework. Everyone is invited to participate to help bring consistency and 
order to the unit tests.
                                                                                
                                                            
Many of the existing C tests are ad-hoc.  The desired form of C test 
executables is described at the end of test/README.  A brief description of the 
condition and output framework is in the list archives: 
https://www.mail-archive.com/openssl-dev@openssl.org/msg46648.html.  Some tests 
have already been updated to use both to serve as examples.


Regards,

Pauli
(at the suggestion of the dev team)


FAQ:

Q: How do I participate?
A: Once you've update your tests, create a Github pull request and put "code 
health" in the title. Such commits will be monitored for quick turnaround.

Q: Which tests should I convert?
A: There is a spreadsheet: conversion: 
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VJTmEVT1EyYxZ90GnhAPd4vtFg74Ij3Y-pthjXdmH80/edit#gid=0
 This lists all the C tests, select one you want to work on and tag it to avoid 
duplication.

Q: Which branch should I target?
A: Master is the one.  It is the only branch with the new infrastructure.

Q: Where do I go if the infrastructure isn't working?
A: Post the problem here.

Q: Can I suggest improvements to the infrastructure?
A: Sure thing, post them here too.
