2016-06-01test-lib: add in-shell "env" replacementLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+22
The one-shot environment variable syntax: FOO=BAR some-program is unportable when some-program is actually a shell function, like test_must_fail (on some shells FOO remains set after the function returns, and on others it does not). We sometimes get around this by using env, like: test_must_fail env FOO=BAR some-program But that only works because test_must_fail's arguments are themselves a command which can be run. You can't run: env FOO=BAR test_must_fail some-program because env does not know about our shell functions. So there is no equivalent for test_commit, for example, and one must resort to: ( FOO=BAR export FOO test_commit ) which is a bit verbose. Let's add a version of "env" that works _inside_ the shell, by creating a subshell, exporting variables from its argument list, and running the command. Its use is demonstrated on a currently-unportable case in t4014. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-05-09test-lib-functions.sh: remove misleading comment on test_seqLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-14/+7
We never used the "letters" form since we came up with "test_seq" to replace use of non-portable "seq" in our test script, which we introduced it at d17cf5f3 (tests: Introduce test_seq, 2012-08-04). We use this helper to either iterate for N times (i.e. the values on the lines do not even matter), or just to get N distinct strings (i.e. the values on the lines themselves do not really matter, but we care that they are different from each other and reproducible). Stop promising that we may allow using "letters"; this would open an easier reimplementation that does not rely on $PERL, if somebody later wants to. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-11-28add "ok=sigpipe" to test_must_fail and use it to fix flaky testsLibravatar Lars Schneider1-0/+3
t5516 "75 - deny fetch unreachable SHA1, allowtipsha1inwant=true" is flaky in the following case: 1. remote upload-pack finds out "not our ref" 2. remote sends a response and closes the pipe 3. fetch-pack still tries to write commands to the remote upload-pack 4. write call in wrapper.c dies with SIGPIPE The test is flaky because the sending fetch-pack may or may not have finished writing its output by step (3). If it did, then we see a closed pipe on the next read() call. If it didn't, then we get the SIGPIPE from step (4) above. Both are fine, but the latter fools test_must_fail. t5504 "9 - push with transfer.fsckobjects" is flaky, too, and returns SIGPIPE once in a while. I had to remove the final "To dst..." output check because there is no output if the process dies with SIGPIPE. Accept such a death-with-sigpipe also as OK when we are expecting a failure.

We have a helper function test_ln_s_add that inserts a symbolic link into the index even if the file system does not support symbolic links. There is a small flaw in the emulation path: the added entry does not pick up stat information of the fake symbolic link from the file system, as a consequence, the index is not exactly the same as for the "regular" path (where symbolic links are available). To fix this, just call git update-index again. This flaw was revealed by the earlier change that tightened compare_diff_raw(), because a test case in t4008 depends on the correctly updated index.

test_cmp() is primarily meant to compare text files (and display the difference for debug purposes). Raw "cmp" is better suited to compare binary files (tar, zip, etc.). On MinGW, test_cmp is a shell function mingw_test_cmp that tries to read both files into environment, stripping CR characters (introduced in commit 4d715ac0). This function usually speeds things up, as fork is extremly slow on Windows. But no wonder that this function is extremely slow and sometimes even crashes when comparing large tar or zip files.

Allow adding a TEST_GIT_INDEX_VERSION variable to config.mak to set the index version with which the test suite should be run.

To avoid breakages with index versions other than [23], also set the index version under which t2104 is run to 3. This test only tests functionality specific to version 2 and 3 of the index file and would fail if the test suite is run with any other version.

2014-02-14tests: turn on network daemon tests by defaultLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+58
We do not run the httpd nor git-daemon tests by default, as they are rather heavyweight and require network access (albeit over localhost). However, it would be nice if more pepole ran them, for two reasons: 1. We would get more test coverage on more systems. 2. The point of the test suite is to find regressions. It is very easy to change some of the underlying code and break the httpd code without realizing you are even affecting it. Running the httpd tests helps find these problems sooner (ideally before the patches even hit the list). We still want to leave an "out", though, for people who really do not want to run them. For that reason, the GIT_TEST_HTTPD and GIT_TEST_GIT_DAEMON variables are now tri-state booleans (true/false/auto), so you can say GIT_TEST_HTTPD=false to turn the tests back off. To support those who want a stable single way to disable these tests across versions of Git before and after this change, an empty string explicitly set to these variables is also taken as "false", so the behaviour changes only for those who: a. did not express any preference by leaving these variables unset. They did not test these features before, but now they do; or b. did express that they want to test these features by setting GIT_TEST_FEATURE=false (or any equivalent other ways to tell "false" to Git, e.g. "0"), which has been a valid but funny way to say that they do want to test the feature only because we used to interpret any non-empty string to mean "yes please test". They no longer test that feature. In addition, we are forgiving of common setup failures (e.g., you do not have apache installed, or have an old version) when the tri-state is "auto" (or unset), but report an error when it is "true". This makes "auto" a sane default, as we should not cause failures on setups where the tests cannot run. But it allows people who use "true" to catch regressions in their system (e.g., they uninstalled apache, but were expecting their automated test runs to test git-httpd, and would want to be notified).

2013-10-29t: use perl instead of "$PERL_PATH" where applicableLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+3
As of the last commit, we can use "perl" instead of "$PERL_PATH" when running tests, as the former is now a function which uses the latter. As the shorter "perl" is easier on the eyes, let's switch to using it everywhere. This is not quite a mechanical s/$PERL_PATH/perl/ replacement, though. There are some places where we invoke perl from a script we generate on the fly, and those scripts do not have access to our internal shell functions. The result can be double-checked by running: ln -s /bin/false bin-wrappers/perl make test which continues to pass even after this patch.

2013-10-29t: provide a perl() function which uses $PERL_PATHLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+4
Once upon a time, we assumed that calling a bare "perl" in the test scripts was OK, because we would find the perl from the user's PATH, and we were only asking that perl to do basic operations that work even on old versions of perl. Later, we found that some systems really prefer to use $PERL_PATH even for these basic cases, because the system perl misbehaves in some way (e.g., by handling line endings differently). We then switched "perl" invocations to "$PERL_PATH" to respect the user's choice. Having to use "$PERL_PATH" is ugly and cumbersome, though. Instead, let's provide a perl() shell function that tests can use, which will transparently do the right thing. Unfortunately, test writers still have to use $PERL_PATH in certain situations, so we still need to keep the advice in the README. Note that this may fix test failures in t5004, t5503, t6002, t6003, t6300, t8001, and t8002, depending on your system's perl setup. All of these can be detected by running: ln -s /bin/false bin-wrappers/perl make test which fails before this patch, and passes after.

2013-10-28Windows: a test_cmp that is agnostic to random LF <> CRLF conversionsLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-0/+66
In a number of tests, output that was produced by a shell script is compared to expected output using test_cmp. Unfortunately, the MSYS bash-- when invoked via git, such as in hooks--converts LF to CRLF on output (as produced by echo and printf), which leads to many false positives. Implements a diff tool that undoes the converted CRLF. To avoid that sub-processes are spawned (which is very slow on Windows), the tool is implemented as a shell function. Diff is invoked as usual only when a difference is detected by the shell code. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Updating the post-image we read from the patch to match the actual result can be performed in-place under this assumption. These days, however, we have tab-in-indent (aka Python) rule whose result can be longer than the original, and we do need to allocate a larger buffer than the input and replace the result. Fortunately the support for lengthening rewrite was already added when we began supporting "match while ignoring whitespace differences" mode in 86c91f91794c (git apply: option to ignore whitespace differences, 2009-08-04). We only need to correctly count the number of bytes necessary to hold the updated result and tell the function to allocate a new buffer. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-02-12t/test-lib-functions.sh: allow to specify the tag name to test_commitLibravatar Brandon Casey1-4/+4
The <message> part of test_commit() may not be appropriate for a tag name. So let's allow test_commit to accept a fourth argument to specify the tag name.
