This is supposed to extend the testing possibilities. The packaging phase could run some tests, many tools run post-build tests, but we need to manage devices and require root in general. This is not always possible, besides that it requires to run from the sources directory. > Just implement the project list below in github. > ................. > Add support for running the tools from a given path (git, /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin), so the testsuite can be run independently. > ................. The idea is to export the testsuite files to a separate tar, run from a script. In that case the system binaries will be preferred. I've promoted the project task to https://github.com/kdave/btrfs-progs/issues/77 . -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
