The cURL Test Suite
Requires:
perl
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 -s fort shorter output, or pass a string with test numbers to run
specific tests only (like ./runtests.pl "3 4" to test 3 and 4 only)
Memory:
The test script will check that all allocated memory is freed properly IF
curl has been built with the MALLOCDEBUG 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.
Logs:
All logs are generated in the logs/ subdirctory (it is emtpied first
in the runtests.sh script)
Data:
All test-data are put in the data/ subdirctory.
For each tests there exist a few files, all with their own separate and
special purpose. Replace N with the test number:
nameN.txt: test description as displayed when run
commandN.txt: command line options for this test
protN.txt: the full dump of the protocol communication that curl is
expected to use when performing this test
replyN.txt: the full dump the server should reply to curl for this test.
If the final result that curl should've got is not in this
file, you can instead name the file replyN0001.txt. This enables
you to fiddle more. ;-)
stdoutN.txt: if this file is present, curl's stdout is compared against
this file to see that they're identical. If this is present,
curl will not be run with -o but instead all output is compared
against this file!
errorN.txt: if this file is present, it should contain the error number
curl is supposed to return when this test is run.
uploadN.txt: if this file is present, it should contain the same data as
the log/upload.N does, after a curl upload has been performed.
FIX:
* Make httpserver.pl work when we PUT without Content-Length:
