Yes, this is expected. test-suite.log is created no matter what, but the rules associated with creating it fail if the log contains any failure reports, so that make will quit running and let you investigate those failures. As for why test-suite.log was not replayed as part of the make output, I'm not sure that you had VERBOSE=1 set. So far, you've only attached the generated Makefile (but not the source Makefile.am), and didn't show what command you ran. You'll need to make your setup easier for others to reproduce before we can see what you are attempting. As for the test-suite.log not having much output, it is probably because your tests are not very noisy. Running make captured all of the output of your tests, but if your tests didn't output anything, then the log has very little to show. Again, without knowing what your test scripts are doing, it's hard to reproduce your setup. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
