$FreeBSD$ This is the test harness for libarchive. It compiles into a single program "libarchive_test" that is intended to exercise as much of the library as possible. It is, of course, very much a work in progress. Each test is a function named test_foo in a file named test_foo.c. Note that the file name is the same as the function name. Each file must start with this line: #include "test.h" The test function must be declared with a line of this form DEFINE_TEST(test_foo) Nothing else should appear on that line. When you add a test, please update the Makefile to add your file to the list of tests. The Makefile and main.c use various macro trickery to automatically collect a list of test functions to be invoked. Each test function can rely on the following: * The current directory will be a freshly-created empty directory suitable for that test. (The top-level main() creates a directory for each separate test and chdir()s to that directory before running the test.) * The test function should use assert(), assertA() and similar macros defined in test.h. If you need to add new macros of this form, feel free to do so. * You are encouraged to document each assertion with a failure() call just before the assert. The failure() function is a printf-like function whose text is displayed only if the assertion fails. It can be used to display additional information relevant to the failure: failure("The data read from file %s did not match the data written to that file.", filename); assert(strcmp(buff1, buff2) == 0); * Tests are encouraged to be economical with their memory and disk usage, though this is not essential.
