[PATCH v5 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.

Changes since v4:

 * Changed to only split tests on commas

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

 1:  8f5d4ad318 ! 1:  389c2c171a test-lib: allow selecting tests by substring/glob with --run
     @@ t/README: For an individual test suite --run could be used to specify that

      +mean "from the first test" or "up to the very last test" respectively.
      +
     -+The argument to --run is split on commas and whitespace into separate
     -+strings, numbers, and ranges, and picks all tests that match any of
     -+the individual selection criteria.  If the substring of the
     -+description text that you want to match includes a comma or space, use
     -+the glob character '?' instead.  For example --run='unnecessary?update
     -+timing' would match on all tests that match either the glob
     -+*unnecessary?update* or the glob *timing*.
     ++The argument to --run is split on commas into separate strings,

     ++on all tests that match either the glob *rebase* or the glob
     ++*merge?cherry-pick*.
       
       If --run starts with an unprefixed number or range the initial
       set of tests to run is empty. If the first item starts with '!'
     +@@ t/README: all the tests are added to the initial set.  After initial set is
     + determined every test number or range is added or excluded from
     + the set one by one, from left to right.
     + 
     +-Individual numbers or ranges could be separated either by a space
     +-or a comma.

     +@@ t/README: or this:
     + Common case is to run several setup tests (1, 2, 3) and then a
