Each C -program has a different testing purpose: - - runtest.c : runs libxml2 basic internal regression tests - runsuite.c: runs libxml2 against external regression tests - testapi.c : exercises the library public entry points - testchar.c: exercise the check of character ranges and UTF-8 validation - -The command: - - make check -or - make -f Makefile.tests check - -should be sufficient on an Unix system to build and exercise the tests -for the version of the library installed on the system. Note however -that there isn't backward compatibility provided so if the installed -version is older than the testsuite one, failing to compile or run the tests -is likely. In any event this won't work with an installed libxml2 older -than 2.6.20. - -Building on other platforms should be a matter of compiling the C files -like any other program using libxml2, running the test should be done -simply by launching the resulting executables. - -Also note the availability of a "make valgrind" target which will run the -above tests under valgrind to check for memory errors (but this relies -on the availability of the valgrind command and take far more time to -complete). - -Daniel Veillard -Mon May 7 2012 - |
