The usual way +of running all the tests is running `make check' from the top-level +source directory. + +The test suite is unfinished and it's still lacking some essential +features. It is nevertheless recommended that you run the tests to +confirm that XEmacs behaves correctly. + +If you want to run a specific test case, you can do it from the +command-line like this: + +$ xemacs -batch -l test-harness.elc -f batch-test-emacs TEST-FILE + +If something goes wrong, you can run the test suite interactively by +loading `test-harness.el' into a running XEmacs and typing +`M-x test-emacs-test-file RET RET'. You will see a log of +passed and failed tests, which should allow you to investigate the +source of the error and ultimately fix the bug. + +Adding a new test file is trivial: just create a new file here and it +will be run. There is no need to byte-compile any of the files in +this directory -- the test-harness will take care of any necessary +byte-compilation. + +Look at the existing test cases for the examples of coding test cases. +It all boils down to your imagination and judicious use of the macros +`Assert', `Check-Error', `Check-Error-Message', and `Check-Message'. -- 1.7.10.4
