Introduction
This page notes what things are currently completed/in-progress for testing in FreeBSD.
Eventually this page will also note coverage in source code as a meaningful rubric for progress.
ATF import status
- ATF 0.16 has been imported into FreeBSD CURRENT and apart from some minor patches, all of the needed support has been added to FreeBSD (gcooper, marcel).
- ATF and Kyua ports have been created (asomers, bdrewery).
- MFCing ATF/bmake support (bmake is required by ATF) has been requested by developers (bapt, et al) to help regression test components on 9-STABLE; MFCing to 8.x was considered a bad idea, but all involved parties (bapt, bdrewery, davide, gcooper) agreed that having ports of ATF/bmake for 8.x was a good idea.
Build infrastructure status
- Major build infrastructure pieces (atf.test.mk, bsd.test.mk) have been imported into FreeBSD in order to provide minimal overhead for developers when writing testcases, testing in-tree and out-of-tree. Minor usability improvements are queued for commit to FreeBSD current.
- A Test::Harness testcase shim (prove.test.mk) is queued for commit into FreeBSD.
- Official documentation (BSD.readme) is queued for commit.
- Automatic test “discovery”/handling logic is queued for commit.
- buildworld/installworld integration is queued for commit.
- Building a test release package and being able to install it via bsdinstall is underway (gcooper).
