is there at all.
It '''does''' return 1 on '''some''' errors, but not all. (And I suggested
to modify {{{testcases.c}}} to return a non-zero value ''on all errors''.
This is almost trivial.)

misunderstanding the situation.
The Makefile does not cause problems; just the comment is not (fully)
correct.

The correct way would be to redirect the output in the {{{make}}} rule
itself (with {{{> test.out}}}), or - if you want to see the test running
live - not redirect it at all. Of course you can also write it to a file
and use {{{tail [-f]}}}; the written file will usually be deleted after
the spkg is installed (and tested) anyhow, unless you use {{{sage-spkg -i
-s ...}}}. So I'd prefer changing the source code and let {{{testcases}}}
just write to {{{stdout}}} and {{{stderr}}}, s.t. the test output ends up
in {{{spkg/logs/*.log}}}, as usual.
