* tests: prefer 'configure.ac' over 'configure.in'Stefano Lattarini2012-02-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this change, our testsuite now uses 'configure.ac' as the name for the typical autoconf input, instead of the obsolescent 'configure.in' (which has been deprecated for several years, at least since autoconf 2.50). Most of the test cases changed by this commit have been automatically modified with this sed command (using GNU sed): sed -i 's/\<configure\(\\\?\)\.in\>/configure\1.ac/g' * syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_no_configure_in): New syntax check. (syntax_check_rules): Add it. * tests/defs: Create stub for autoconf input in 'configure.ac', not in 'configure.in'. Adjust comments. ($AUTOCONF, $AUTOHEADER, $AUTORECONF): Remove workaround for the infamous debian autoconf wrapper: we don't need such workaround anymore now that we name our autoconf input as 'configure.ac'. For more information, see commit v1.11-564-g63da492 "test defs: hack to support autoconf-wrapper programs" of 16-12-2011. * tests/README: Use 'configure.ac', not 'configure.in'. * Many many tests: Likewise. * tests/backcompat3.test: Adjust to avoid spurious failures. * tests/backcompat5.test: Likewise. * tests/missing6.test: Likewise. * tests/backcompat6.test: Likewise, and extend a bit since we are at it.
* tests: better way to compare lists in Makefile rulesStefano Lattarini2012-02-081-2/+2

Before this change, a test checking that an usage like this one: VAR = valA if COND1 VAR += val1 # com1 endif COND1 VAR += valC worked as expected, couldn't use rules like: ## Doesn't work because $(VAR) expands to multiple words verify: test $(VAR) = "valA val1 valC" nor like: ## Doesn't work because the final expansion of $(VAR) contains ## repeated contiguous whitespace characters (it actually ## equals "valA val1 valC", not "valA val1 valC"), and this ## is an internal detail which might change and which we don't ## want to explicitly rely on. verify: test "$(VAR)" = "valA val1 valC" Instead, we had to rely on cumbersome workaround such as: ## This works, but is ugly. verify: test "`echo $(VAR)`" = "valA val1 valC" or: ## This works, but is even uglier. verify: echo BEG: $(VAR) :END | grep "BEG: valA val1 valC :END" Now, with the help of the new 'is' script, we can perform such a check in a clearer and more straightforward way, as in: ## Works, and reads clearly. verify: is $(VAR) == valA val1 valC * tests/is: New helper shell script, telling whether two whitespace separated lists are equal. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it. * tests/colneq2.test: Use the new helper script, and accordingly get rid of older, more cumbersome idioms. * tests/cond11.test: Likewise. * tests/cond16.test: Likewise. * tests/cond18.test: Likewise. * tests/cond22.test: Likewise. * tests/cond31.test: Likewise. * tests/cond38.test: Likewise. * tests/test-logs-repeated.test: Likewise. * tests/objext-pr10128.test: Likewise. * tests/programs-primary-rewritten.test: Likewise. * tests/substre2.test: Likewise. Also ... (configure.in, Makefile.am): Add a couple of hack to avoid having to require (and run) a C compiler; accordingly ... ($required): ... remove this. * tests/exeext4.test: Likewise. * tests/substref.test: Likewise. Also ... (hello.c): Use ": >" rather than "cat <<EOF" to generate it, since it's meant to be empty anyway. * tests/cond4.test: Use the new helper script, and accordingly get rid of older, more cumbersome idioms. Avoid some unnecessary uses of "make -e" since we are at it. * tests/cond19.test: Likewise. * tests/cond32.test: Likewise. * tests/cond6.test: Use the new helper script, and accordingly move some checks in the Makefile.am. Avoid unnecessary execution of automake remake rules by manually "touching" aclocal.m4
* tests: remove redundant 'set -e' callsStefano Lattarini2012-01-221-2/+0
