TESTonce is written in Perl in order to do a bit of manipulation that I found too tedious to do in shell.
TESTrun.sh is written in shell, and contains a bunch of work arounds (.passed and .failed files) to deal how shell creates sub-shells. This would be trivial to do properly in Perl. I think that Perl is now ubiquitous enough on Windows that we could just use one program to drive it all? OpenSSL uses the Perl unit test framework; I'm not sure I'd want to go that far, but I'd consider it. -- ] Never tell me the odds! | ipv6 mesh networks [ ] Michael Richardson, Sandelman Software Works | IoT architect [ ] m...@sandelman.ca http://www.sandelman.ca/ | ruby on rails [ _______________________________________________ tcpdump-workers mailing list tcpdump-workers@lists.tcpdump.org https://lists.sandelman.ca/mailman/listinfo/tcpdump-workers
