[PATCH 1/2] tests: make test_must_fail more verbose

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

 



Because test_must_fail fails when a command succeeds, the
command frequently does not produce any output (since, after
all, it thought it was succeeding). So let's have
test_must_fail itself report that a problem occurred.
