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). - -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, 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 also since Windows 95 does not support I/O completion - ports and overlapped I/O. - -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, it can be assumed 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 - server.conf and clerk.conf (and for Win32, NTserver.conf and - NTclerk.conf). - -If you have any questions/suggestions, please let me know. - -Prashant Jain -(pjain@cs.wustl.edu) |
