-Here are some notes about adding and using this testsuite.
-
-First, all the programs are linked with libcygwin0.a, which is just
-like libcygwin.a, except that it wants cygwin0.dll, not
-cygwin1.dll. The testsuite adds the winsup build directory to the
-PATH so that cygwin0.dll can be found by windows during testing.
-
-Because we'll probably run into complaints about using two DLLs, we
-run cygrun.exe for each test. All this does is run the test with
-CreateProcess() so that we don't attempt to do the special code for
-when a cygwin program calls another cygwin program, as this might be a
-"multiple cygwins" problem.
-
-Any test that needs to test command line args or redirection needs to
-run such a child program itself, as the testsuite will not do any
-arguments or redirection for it. Same for fork, signals, etc.
-
-The testsuite/winsup.api subdirectory is for testing the API to
-cygwin1.dll ONLY. Create other subdirs under testsuite/ for other
-classes of testing.
-
-Tests in winsup.api/*.c or winsup.api/*/*.c (only one subdirectory
-level is allowed) either compile, run, and exit(0) or they fail.
-Either abort or exit with a non-zero code to indicate failure. Don't
-print anything to the screen if you can avoid it (except for failure
-reasons, of course). One .c file per test, no compile options are
-allowed (we're testing the api, not the compiler).
-
-Tests whose filename is mentioned in known-bugs.tcl will be *expected*
-to fail, and will "fail" if they compile, run, and return zero.
-
-"make check" will only work if you run it *on* an NT machine.
-Cross-checking is not supported.
-
-To test a subset of the test-suite, use
-$ make check CYGWIN_TESTSUITE_TESTS=regexp
