test: unbreak performance tests

2017-12-05T01:04:38Z

In 8e7fb88237aedea22 Jani replaced the use of $(pwd -P) to find the TEST_DIRECTORY in order to better support out of tree builds. Unfortunately the performance-tests need a different value for the variable and were thus broken. This commit splits out the setting of this variable for the two sets of tests. Performance tests still don't work out of tree, because the handling of the downloaded corpus needs to be updated.

test: fix test database backup/restore location

2017-10-29T16:30:30Z

backup_database() and restore_database() used to store the backups in the test specific temporary directory, through the current working directory being there. Commit 8e7fb88237ae ("test: use source and build paths in test-lib-common.sh") started using a test specific backup directories under the build tree test directory. This was in error. Switch back to the old location, but using paths to the location instead of relying on current working directory. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor .

test: remove --root option and fix TMP_DIRECTORY cleanup

2017-10-21T14:32:20Z

The primary motivation here is to fix TMP_DIRECTORY cleanup prior to running each test when the current working directory is not the test subdirectory. Tests with failures would leave their TMP_DIRECTORY directory behind for debugging, and repeated out-of-tree test runs would have old temp directories. (This lead to e.g. T310-emacs.sh hanging because emacs would prompt for overwriting files.) We remove the likely anyway defunct --root test option while at it, just to be on the safe side when doing 'rm -rf' on the TMP_DIRECTORY.

test: mkdir and cd to $TMP_DIRECTORY instead of $test for testing

2017-10-20T22:55:10Z

$TMP_DIRECTORY is a full path, while $test is not.

test: use source and build paths in test-lib-common.sh

2017-10-20T22:54:43Z

Make a distinction between source and build directories. The expectation is that anyone sourcing test-lib-common.sh has sourced export-dirs.sh.

test: move generate_message, add_message into test-lib-common.sh

2017-08-20T11:34:03Z

The plan is to use at least the former in the perf test suite.

tests: add compatibility layer

2017-03-25T10:56:52Z

Make test-lib-common.sh load test-lib-<$PLATFORM>.sh to create additional shim for platform specifics. Use test-lib-FREEBSD.sh to call GNU utilities instead of native ones. - amended by db following Tomi's suggestions

test: move GNUPGHOME to TEST_TMPDIR

2017-02-28T00:01:42Z

We already use this directory for dtach sockets, so it makes sense to put gnupg sockets there as well. There doesn't seem to be a clean way to put a fully functional socket in a different location than GNUPGHOME.

test: set LD_LIBRARY_PATH early and keep its old contents

2016-06-11T16:11:49Z

Previously LD_LIBRARY_PATH was exported (and environment changed) in the middle of test case execution, when a function setting it was called. Previously the old contents of LD_LIBRARY_PATH was lost (if any) when it was re-set and exported. In some systems the old contents of LD_LIBRARY_PATH was needed to e.g. locate suitable gmime library.

test: fix die() in test-lib-common.sh

2016-06-11T16:03:44Z

In scripts that include test-lib-common.sh but not test-lib.sh the die() implementation needs to be a bit different due to fd redirection differences. test-lib-common.sh implements die() only if it was not implemented already.
