See the "Known bugs" section +in ..\README. + + +Writing Test Cases +------------------ + +Tests written in this test suite should behave in the following manner: + + * If a test fails, leave main() with a result of 1. + + * If a test succeeds, leave main() with a result of 0. + + * No diagnostic output should appear when the test is succeeding. + Diagnostic output may be emitted if something in the test + fails, to help determine the cause of the test failure. + +Notes: +------ + +Many test cases use knowledge of implementation internals which are supposed +to be opaque to portable applications. |
