[PATCH] t/t0000-basic.sh: Don't run a passing TODO unless TEST_PASSING_TODO=1

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Change the sanity tests in t/t0000-basic.sh to not to run a passing
TODO test unless the TEST_PASSING_TODO environment variable is set.

The motivation is to have nothing out of the ordinary on a normal test
run for test smoking purposes.

If every normal test run has a passing TODO you're more likely to turn
a blind eye to it and not to investigate cases where things really are
passing unexpectedly.

It also makes the prove(1) output less noisy. Before:

    All tests successful.

And after:

    All tests successful.

    Result: PASS
