tests: Replace 'make extra-tests' with individual tests.

2012-11-13T15:26:29+00:00

'make extra-tests' was a monolithic set of tests that did all sorts of
things: valgrind, tests over local guests, tests with upstream qemu,
tests with upstream libvirt, tests with the appliance attach method.

This made it hard to perform individual tests, eg. just valgrind
testing.  It was also hard to maintain because the tests were not
located in the same directories as the programs and sometimes
duplicated tests that were run elsewhere.

This commit splits up 'make extra-tests' into 5 separate targets:

 make check-valgrind              # run a subset of tests under valgrind
 make check-valgrind-local-guests # test under valgrind with local guests
 make check-with-appliance        # test with attach-method == appliance
 make check-with-upstream-qemu    # test with an alternate/upstream qemu
 make check-with-upstream-libvirt # test with an alternate/upstream libvirt

(You can also still run 'make extra-tests' which is now simply
a rule that runs the above 5 targets in order).

This replaces everything that was in the tests/extra directory,
so that has now gone.

align: Add a test for virt-alignment-scan.

syntax: Remove gnulib c-ctype.h in files that don't use it.

syntax: Remove include where assert is not used.

podwrapper: Add --license parameter, which is required.

2012-08-21T19:33:21+00:00

This adds standard LICENSE and BUGS sections to all of the man pages
that are processed by podwrapper.

Modify all the calls to $(PODWRAPPER) to add the right --license
parameter according to the content.  Note that this relaxes the
license on some code example pages, making them effectively BSD-style
licensed.

man pages: Ensure consistent copyright/author sections, remove license

section.

Ensure each man page contains consistent COPYRIGHT and AUTHOR
sections.

Remove the LICENSE section.  We will add that back in podwrapper in a
later commit.

fish: Rename fish/virt.c to fish/domain.c

2012-07-19T15:11:26+00:00

This file handles the -d option for guestfish and other C command line
utilities.  Renaming this file makes it less confusing.

build: Change calls to podwrapper.sh to use $(PODWRAPPER).

2012-07-16T17:56:57+00:00

This will allow us to easily change the location of this
script in future.

run: Set MALLOC_PERTURB_ to a random value.

2012-06-28T12:19:39+00:00

MALLOC_PERTURB_ is a glibc feature which causes malloc to wipe memory
before and after it is used, allowing both use-after-free and
uninitialized reads to be detected with relatively little performance
penalty:

Modify the ./run script so that it always sets this.

We were already using MALLOC_PERTURB_ in most tests.  Since ./run is
now setting this, we can remove it from individual Makefiles.  Most
TESTS_ENVIRONMENT will now simply look like this:

  TESTS_ENVIRONMENT = $(top_builddir)/run --test

tests: Add ./run --test option.

2012-06-26T22:34:30+00:00

This option, when added via
  TESTS_ENVIRONMENT = [...] $(top_builddir)/run --test
allows us to run the tests and only print the full output (including
debugging etc) when the test fails.
