As the names depend on the tests' file names, it is safe to
run the tests with this option in parallel.
+--root=<dir>::
+ This runs the testsuites specified under a seperate directory.
+ However, caution is advised, as not all tests are maintained
+ with this relocation in mind, so some tests may behave

+ Pointing this argument at a tmpfs filesystem can improve the

When invoking the test suite via "make test" any of the above options
can be specified as follows:
will generate a failure and print the difference of the two
strings.
+ test_expect_equal_file <output> <expected>
+
+ Identical to test_exepect_equal, except that <output> and
+ <expected> are files instead of strings. This is a much more
+ robust method to compare formatted textual information, since it
+ also notices whitespace and closing newline differences.
+
test_expect_equal_failure <output> <expected>
This works similar to test_expect_equal (see above) but is used to
