Re: Oddities in ECL tests on Linux
OK, that makes sense. These tests were passing for me on the Mac, but brew has ECL 16.1.3 instead of 16.1.2. On 1 Sep 2018, at 7:26, Marius Gerbershagen wrote: The patch works exactly as it should. All it does is to exit the current process with a return code of 1 if the process lands in the top level prompt. The tests you mention also failed before on ECL <= 16.1.2, the difference is just that instead of failing with a nonzero exit code (as they should), they failed by getting stuck in the top level prompt. As I already mentioned in the previous discussion, these failures are due to a bug in ECL, which has already been fixed in the 16.1.3 release.

Do you have any more information on your Jenkins job (what it does
differently than a plain run of `make test l=ecl` and how to reproduce
the failure)?

I can't reproduce this, for me the tests run fine without being thrown
in the debugger. I only get two harmlessly looking test failures
(test-program.script and test-require.script).

Well if you don't have a C compiler installed, ECL can not compile
anything unless you run `(ext:install-bytecodes-compiler)`. However,
asdf already contains a test target for the bytecodes compiler with
`make test l=ecl_bytecodes` (which will unfortunately fail at the moment
unless you apply the fix at
https://gitlab.com/embeddable-common-lisp/ecl/merge_requests/118).

Oddities in ECL tests on Linux
My Jenkins job is failing to test ECL successfully. What's interesting
is that it looks like the tests are successful, but the checker is
failing. Here's what I see in the transcript:
These two expressions fail comparison with EQUAL:
(UIOP/UTILITY:NEST (LISP-INVOCATION/LISP-INVOCATION:INVOKE-LISP
:IMPLEMENTATION-TYPE (LISP-INVOCATION/ALLEGRO-VARIANTS:CURRENT-LISP-VARIANT)
:CROSS-COMPILE NIL :IMAGE-PATH (UIOP/FILESYSTEM:NATIVE-NAMESTRING
ASDF-TEST::IMG) :CONSOLE T :EVAL "(uiop:restore-image :entry-point
'hello:entry-point :lisp-interaction nil)" :RUN-PROGRAM-ARGS '(:OUTPUT :LINES
:ERROR-OUTPUT T))) evaluates to ("No restarts available." "" "Top level in:
#." "> ")
'("hello, world") evaluates to ("hello, world")
Oddly, when I try to run this at the command line, ECL throws to the
interactive debugger on various signals and I have to restart it, before
make test l=ecl
will terminate successfully.
I think I have seen this before, and it may be that ECL implicitly
assumes that there will be some kind of C compilation tool chain present
that I don't have, but I'm not sure about that.
Suggestions for debugging would be welcom.
