The original intent for the test suite was that somebody could run the APR test suite on their implementation of APR, and be sure that they are 100% compatible. The current test suite doesn't even come close to implementing that. In fact, most of the tests don't even give useful information about whether a feature is working as it is supposed to. I am trying to test my new poll implementation, but I am spending more time interpreting the test rsults than actually fixing the code.
In the next few weeks, I will be creating a real test suite for APR. It will be either Perl or Python based, and all tests will be required to report success or failure only in the default mode. If more information is required, that will be done through a verbose mode, much like the perl test suite for httpd. >From now on, the test suite's goal should be to allow people to know if they have successfully implemented APR for their platform. This means that any new features in APR should include a full test suite for those functions.
