This directory contains the tests for gawk. The tests use the
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
following conventions.

Given some aspect of gawk named `foo', there will be one or more
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
of the following files:
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
foo.awk --- actual code for the test if not inline in the Makefile
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
foo.in --- the data for the test, if it needs data
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
foo.ok --- the expected results
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
_foo --- the actual results; generated at run time
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
The _foo file will be left around if a test fails, allowing you to
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
compare actual and expected results, in case they differ.
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
If they do differ (other than strftime.ok and _strftime!), send in a
|
|
Packit Service |
f629e6 |
bug report. See the manual for the bug report procedure.

There isn't anything that can be done about this.
