| util-linux regression tests | |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| It's expected that for each invasive change or important bugfix you will | |
| include a test to your patch. | |
| Compile tests & run basic tests: | |
| $ make check | |
| Note that the configure option --disable-static disables many of libmount and | |
| libblkid unit tests. | |
| Run all tests including tests that require root permissions: | |
| # cd tests | |
| # ./run.sh [--verbose] [--memcheck] | |
| note that as root you have to manually remove output and diff directories | |
| # rm -rf output diff | |
| or run 'make clean' as root. | |
| Run subset of tests: | |
| $ ./run.sh <test_directory-name> | |
| for example: | |
| $ ./run.sh blkid | |
| $ ./run.sh libmount | |
| *** WARNING for root users *** | |
| The tests touch your /etc/fstab, initialize loop devices or scsi_debug devices | |
| if executed with root permissions. | |
| Please, be careful and use these tests only for development and never on | |
| production system. |
