- Log ----------------------------------------------------------------- commit a1f354d3762aa87a796bc3d383629bfc853472f5 Author: Tony Cook <t...@develop-help.com> Date: Tue Feb 5 10:39:57 2019 +1100 (perl #133462) add specific test run instructions to README.win32 README.win32 provides generally standalone instructions for running and testing perl, but unlike INSTALL didn't provide instructions for repeating individual tests. Both perlguts and INSTALL provide instructions on repeating individual tests, and considering at the point a user want this information they don't have a working perl installation, I think it's reasonable to repeat it here. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Summary of changes: README.win32 | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/README.win32 b/README.win32 index 0ca1ce4cf4..f42a7cb5b6 100644 --- a/README.win32 +++ b/README.win32 @@ -459,6 +459,13 @@ include some tools (C<type> for instance) which override the Windows ones and makes tests fail.
