-*- outline -*- This directory holds the M4sugar, M4sh and Autoconf test suites. Here are a few rules on how to write tests. * Autoconf ** Use of `exit' Don't directly `exit 1' or `exit 77', rather use `AC_MSG_ERROR'. First of all because when we have to read the test suite logs we are happy to know why `configure' exited thanks to the error message. Secondly, because `configure' traps the `exit' and pretty many shells fail to set $? to 77 when trapping `exit 77'. This results in the test suite not being able to check the exit status. ** AC_MSG_ERROR Of course, since macro names are forbidden in `configure', if you really want to mention the macro name, you'll have to do without including `A?_' in the output.
