lit - A Software Testing Tool
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
lit is a portable tool for executing LLVM and Clang style test suites,
|
|
summarizing their results, and providing indication of failures. lit is designed
|
|
to be a lightweight testing tool with as simple a user interface as possible.

|
=====================
|
|
|
|
Please browse the Test Suite > lit category in LLVM's Bugzilla for ideas on
|
|
what to work on.
|
|
|
|
Before submitting patches, run the test suite to ensure nothing has regressed:
|
|
|
|
# From within your LLVM source directory.
|
|
utils/lit/lit.py \
|
|
--path /path/to/your/llvm/build/bin \
|
|
utils/lit/tests
|
|
|
|
Note that lit's tests depend on 'not' and 'FileCheck', LLVM utilities.
|
|
You will need to have built LLVM tools in order to run lit's test suite
|
|
successfully.
|
|
|
|
You'll also want to confirm that lit continues to work when testing LLVM.
|
|
Follow the instructions in http://llvm.org/docs/TestingGuide.html to run the
|
|
regression test suite:
|
|
|
|
make check-llvm
|
|
|
|
And be sure to run the llvm-lit wrapper script as well:
|
|
|
|
/path/to/your/llvm/build/bin/llvm-lit utils/lit/tests
|
|
|
|
Finally, make sure lit works when installed via setuptools:
|
|
|
|
python utils/lit/setup.py install
|
|
lit --path /path/to/your/llvm/build/bin utils/lit/tests
|
