Matt Kraaib5b757e2002-02-19 23:20:52 +00004To run the test suite, change to this directory and run "./runtest". It will
5run all of the test cases, and list those with unexpected outcomes. Adding the
6-v option will cause it to show expected outcomes as well. To only run the test
7cases for particular applets, specify them as parameters to runtest.

Matt Kraaib5b757e2002-02-19 23:20:52 +00009The test cases for an applet reside in the subdirectory of the applet name. The
10name of the test case should be the assertion that is tested. The test case
11should be a shell fragment that returns successfully if the test case passes,
Matt Kraai6b140ea2002-02-19 23:43:08 +000012and unsuccessfully otherwise.

14If the test case relies on a certain feature, it should include the string
15"FEATURE: " followed by the name of the feature in a comment. If it is always
16expected to fail, it should include the string "XFAIL" in a comment.
