[PATCH 0/3] Make test selection easier by specifying description substrings instead of just numeric counters

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

 



This patch series enables me to change

 ./t9999-my-test.sh --run=1-3,5,17,19

into

 ./t9999-my-test.sh --run=setup,rename,symlink

and have it pick out tests with "setup", "rename", or "symlink" in their
description and run those. Saves me a lot of time, especially since numbers
for tests aren't readily accessible. The easiest way for me to get the
numbers corresponding to the tests I want to run, is to run all the tests
and look at the output to match up the descriptions with their numbers --
thus defeating the point of selecting just a subset of the tests to run in
the first place.

Elijah Newren (3):
  test-lib: allow selecting tests by substring/regex with --run
  t6006, t6012: adjust tests to use 'setup' instead of synonyms
  test-lib: reduce verbosity of skipped tests
