This is a RFC towards the implementation of a feature that aims at
allowing the test cases reside anywhere in the system and can be
accessed via a commandline switch.
Currently Autotest supports only the following directories for test
cases to reside:
- client/tests
- client/site_tests
Apart from the above, it provides a couple of options to enter global
test directories in the global_config.ini file.
I *have implemented* the following, a custom commandline option, say -d
followed by the absolute path to the directory in which the test case
resides.
For example
/sudo ./autotest -d /home/rajeevs/ ../../pax/control /
The normal test cases function as before
/sudo ./autotest ../../pax/control /
The above commands work fine,and tests get executed.
What else should I verify/Include?
Comments/Feedback requested.
Well, this feature is narrow. People often ask for more ways to provide
test repositories, and there are plans to make tests available through
git repositories.
That said, if this is significantly important for you guys, I see no
reason why it can't be included.
