Tests that execute probes (pass 5) should include their own .exp/.stp
files under any other appropriate systemtap.* testsuite subdirectory.
+ To run a particular test or set of tests, do:
+ cd testsuite
+ make check RUNTESTFLAGS=testname.exp
+ or
+ make installcheck RUNTESTFLAGS=testname.exp
+ To disambiguate among multiple tests with the same name, specify
+ the directory as well -- for example:
+ make installcheck RUNTESTFLAGS=systemtap.base/print.exp
