The cURL Test Suite
|
|
|
|
Requires:
|
|
perl (and a unix-style shell)
|
|
diff (when a test fail, a diff is shown)
|
|
stunnel (for HTTPS and FTPS tests)
|
|
|
|
Run:
|
|
'make test'. This invokes the 'runtests.pl' perl script. Edit the top
|
|
variables of that script in case you have some specific needs.
|
|
|
|
The script breaks on the first test that doesn't do OK. Use -a to prevent
|
|
the script to abort on the first error. Run the script with -v for more
|
|
verbose output. Use -d to run the test servers with debug output enabled as
|
|
well.
|
|
|
|
Use -s for shorter output, or pass test numbers to run specific tests only
|
|
(like "./runtests.pl 3 4" to test 3 and 4 only). It also supports test case
|
|
ranges with 'to'. As in "./runtests 3 to 9" which runs the seven tests from
|
|
3 to 9.
|
|
|
|
Memory:
|
|
The test script will check that all allocated memory is freed properly IF
|
|
curl has been built with the CURLDEBUG define set. The script will
|
|
automatically detect if that is the case, and it will use the ../memanalyze
|
|
script to analyze the memory debugging output.
|
|
|
|
Debug:
|
|
If a test case fails, you can conveniently get the script to invoke the
|
|
debugger (gdb) for you with the server running and the exact same command
|
|
line parameters that failed. Just invoke 'runtests.pl <test number> -g' and
|
|
then just type 'run' in the debugger to perform the command through the
|
|
debugger.
|
|
|
|
If a test case causes a core dump, analyze it by running gdb like:
|
|
|
|
# gdb ../curl/src core
|
|
|
|
... and get a stack trace with the gdb command:
|
|
|
|
(gdb) where
|
|
|
|
Logs:
|
|
All logs are generated in the logs/ subdirctory (it is emtpied first
|
|
in the runtests.pl script). Use runtests.pl -k to make the temporary files
|
|
to be kept after the test run.
|
|
|
|
Data:
|
|
All test cases are put in the data/ subdirctory. Each test is stored in the
|
|
file named according to the test number.
|
|
|
|
The test case file format is simply a way to store different sections within
|
|
the same physical file. The different sections are to be described here
|
|
within shortly.

TEST CASE NUMBERS
|
|
|
|
So far, I've used this system:
|
|
|
|
1 - 99 HTTP
|
|
100 - 199 FTP
|
|
200 - 299 FILE
|
|
300 - 399 HTTPS
|
|
400 - 499 FTPS
|
|
500 - 599 libcurl source code tests, not using the curl command tool
|
|
|
|
Since 30-apr-2003, there's nothing in the system that requires us to keep
|
|
within these number series. Each test case now specifies its own server
|
|
requirements, independent of test number.
