+
+ Make tests `colon*.test' more "semantic".
+ Prefer running configure and make over grepping the generated
+ files; this is both more correct and less fragile.
+ * tests/colon.test: Made more "semantic", as described above.
+ * tests/colon5.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/colon6.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/colon7.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/colon2.test: Likewise, and improve syncing with sister
+ test `colon3.test'.
+ * tests/colon3.test: Likewise (but with the sister test being
+ `colon2.test' here).
+
+2010-12-10 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Extend and improve tests on DejaGnu support.
+ * tests/dejagnu.test: Do not create useless dummy test script.
+ Add trailing `:' command. In heading comments, add reference
+ to ...
+ * tests/check12.test: ... this new "semantic" test, covering
+ concurrent use of dejagnu tests, simple tests and `check-local'
+ target.
+ * tests/dejagnu2.test: Make test more reliable, by avoid weak
+ grepping of make output. Prefer `cat' over `echo' to append
+ to configure.in. Quote literal dots in grep regexps. Prefer
+ `grep -c ...' over `grep ... | wc -l'. Make grepping of
+ automake stderr slightly stricter. Add trailing `:' command.
+ * tests/dejagnu3.test: Prefer `cat' over `echo' to append to
+ configure.in. Check stderr of expected-to-fail "make" call.
+ Remove extra blank lines from Makefile.am.
+ * tests/dejagnu4.test: Prefer `cat' over `echo' to append to
+ configure.in. Prefer `mv -f' over plain `mv' when the target
+ file already exists. Avoid extra mkdir calls by creating more
+ directories at once. Better use of blank lines. Check that
+ the `*.log' and `*.sum' files are created by runtest also when
+ "make check" fails.
+ * tests/dejagnu7.test: Prefer `cat' over `echo' to append to
+ configure.in. Better use of blank lines. Add a trailing `:'
+ command.
+ * tests/dejagnu6.test: Likewise, and give the dejagnu test a
+ more descriptive name.
+ * tests/dejagnu5.test: Likewise. Also, simply define package
+ name to `$me' rather than using a non-obvious sed script to
+ extract it from `AC_INIT', and write the Makefile.am with only
+ one command.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated.
+

+
+ Avoid running installed automake from 'libtool --help'.
+ * tests/subobj9.test: Export AUTOCONF and AUTOMAKE.
+ Together with fixed Libtool, this fixes check-coverage to not
+ invoke installed automake.
+
+2010-12-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Separate checks on target overriding into multiple test scripts.
+ * tests/overrid.test: Deleted, its contents separated into ...
+ * tests/override-suggest-local.test: ... this new test ...
+ * tests/override-html.test: ... and this new test ...
+ * tests/override-conditional-1.test: ... and this new test ...
+ * tests/override-conditional-2.test: ... and this new test (still
+ xfailing).
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS, XFAIL_TESTS): Updated.

+ longer and less common names to grep. Remove an useless call to
+ echo. Remove an useless subshell.
+ * tests/header.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
+ changes. Use proper m4 quoting. Add excerpts from the original
+ report of the bug tested for by this script.

+ changes. Use proper m4 quoting. Add trailing `:' command.

+ cat + here-doc over echo to append to configure.in.
+ * tests/libtool2.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
+ changes. Add trailing `:' command. Use the configure.in
+ stub provided by ./defs, rather than writing it from scratch.
+
+ Modernize, improve and/or tweak some test scripts.
+ * tests/maintclean.test: Use proper m4 quoting. Add trailing `:'
+ command.
+ * tests/sinclude.test: Likewise, and add a couple of blank lines,
+ for clarity.
+ * tests/make.test: Move setting of `errexit' shell flag earlier in
+ the script (just after inclusion of ./defs). Use the configure.in
+ stub created by ./defs, rather than writing it from scratch. Some
+ cosmetic changes in spacing. Ensure we wait enough time before
+ touching configure.in to trigger the rebuild rules.
+ * tests/makej.test: Use `$me' instead of hard-coding the test
+ name. Add trailing `:' command.
+ * tests/version7.test: Likewise.
+ * tests/space.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
+ changes.
+ * tests/makevars.test: Likewise. Also, prefer trailing `:' over
+ trailing `Exit 0', and be more tolerant of white spaces when
+ grepping Makefile.in.

+
+2010-11-30 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Improve and extend tests on `:=' variable assignments.
+ * tests/colneq.test: Avoid redundant use of variable assignments
+ in Makefile.am. Use command-line automake options instead of
+ editing AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS in Makefile.am. Make grepping of the
+ generated Makefile.in slightly stricter. Add a trailing `:'
+ command.
