These tests can be executed -in a single pass via a shell script run_tests.sh (on UNIX) or a batch -file run_tests.bat (on Win32). - -On UNIX, by default all the output from the tests will be stored in -separate files in the ./log/ directory. However, you can override -this by setting the ACE_TEST_DIR environment variable to another -prefix. On Win32 all the output is stored in separate files in -C:\temp\log\. - -________________________________________ - -Please follow these directions when adding a new test to -$ACE_ROOT/tests: - -1. Use appropriate ACE_START_TEST and ACE_END_TEST macros in main () -2. Add test to Makefile -3. Add test to MS project files (tests.dsp and version_tests/version_tests.dsp) - (... and tests.mdp and version_tests/version_tests.mdp (for MSVC 4.2)) -4. Add test to all or most of these: - - run_tests.bat, run_tests.psosim, run_tests.sh, and run_tests.vxworks. -________________________________________ - -We had problems running the batch file on Windows 95 and Windows NT -using the native DOS prompt. However we were able to get around this -problem by using a program called "4DOS for Windows NT" which also -displays a DOS prompt but allows us to run batch files through it. - -The tests have been run on UNIX, pSOS, Windows NT, and Windows 95 and they -all work with the following exceptions: - -1. Name_Server_Test on Windows 95: this does not work on Windows 95 - since Windows 95 has a different model for shared memory and does - not support explicitly selecting shared memory addresses. - -2. UPIPE_Test and SPIPE_Test on Windows 95: these do not work on - Windows 95 since Windows 95 does not support the server side - functionality of accepting connections from clients using named pipes. - -3. Proactor_Test (to be added) on Windows 95: this does not work on - Windows 95 since Windows 95 does not support I/O completion ports. - -4. Of the tests (believed) relevant to the single threaded port to pSOSim, - Sigset_Ops_Test, Sock_Connector_Test, Priority_Reactor_Test, - Process_Strategy_Test, and Service_Config_Test are still failing. - These are being debugged and will either be corrected or, if there - are unsupported features in these tests, removed from the test suite for - pSOSim. - -5. The set of tests for pSOSim will be expanded to include those that require - multiple threads, with the release of the multi-threaded port to pSOSim. - -Notes: - -1. Each test creates a log file and writes it to the ./log/ - directory. The log directory can be changed in the test_config.h - file. - -2. Each log file contains a time stamp of when the test began and also - a time stamp indicating when the test ended. If the ending time stamp - is missing, you can assume that the test did not succeed. - -3. None of the tests require any command line parameters. This is in - accordance with the keeping the test-suite a "one-button" test. If - any of the tests require any variable parameters these are - specified in test_config.h. - -4. Time_Service_Test executes the Time Server and Clerk components - as two processes and so the executable "main" need to be present in the - netsvcs/bin directory. These components rely on config files. Two - sample config files are also present in the test-suite, namely - UNIXserver.conf and UNIXclerk.conf (and for Win32, Win32server.conf - and Win32clerk.conf). - -Please see run_tests.vxworks for information on the status of -tests on VxWorks. - -Please see run_tests.psosim for information on the status of tests on pSOSim. -Run_tests.psosim is an executable shell script that runs all tests that are -(believed) relevant to the single threaded port to pSOSim. - - -If you have any questions/suggestions, please send email to -ace-users@cs.wustl.edu. |
