The `./config` script tries hard to guess your operating system, but in some
cases it does not succeed. You will see a message like the following:
$ ./config
./config
Operating system: x86-whatever-minix
This system (minix) is not supported. See file INSTALL for details.

Assembler error messages can sometimes be sidestepped by using the
"no-asm" configuration option.

If some tests fail, look at the output. There may be reasons for the failure
that isn't a problem in OpenSSL itself (like a malfunction with Perl).

You may want increased verbosity, that can be accomplished like this:
Verbosity on failure only (make macro VERBOSE_FAILURE or VF):
Full verbosity (`make` macro `VERBOSE` or `V`):
$ make VF=1 test # Unix
$ mms /macro=(VF=1) test ! OpenVMS
$ nmake VF=1 test # Windows
make V=1 test # Unix
mms /macro=(V=1) test ! OpenVMS
nmake V=1 test # Windows
Full verbosity (make macro VERBOSE or V):
Verbosity on test failure (`VERBOSE_FAILURE` or `VF´, Unix example shown):
$ make V=1 test # Unix
$ mms /macro=(V=1) test ! OpenVMS
$ nmake V=1 test # Windows
make test VF=1
Verbosity on failed (sub-)tests only (`VERBOSE_FAILURES_ONLY` or `VFO`):
make test VFO=1
Verbosity on failed (sub-)tests, in addition progress on succeeded (sub-)tests
(`VERBOSE_FAILURES_PROGRESS` or `VFP`):
make test VFP=1
If you want to run just one or a few specific tests, you can use
the make variable TESTS to specify them, like this:
$ make TESTS='test_rsa test_dsa' test # Unix
$ mms/macro="TESTS=test_rsa test_dsa" test ! OpenVMS
$ nmake TESTS='test_rsa test_dsa' test # Windows
make TESTS='test_rsa test_dsa' test # Unix
mms/macro="TESTS=test_rsa test_dsa" test ! OpenVMS
nmake TESTS='test_rsa test_dsa' test # Windows
And of course, you can combine (Unix example shown):
And of course, you can combine (Unix examples shown):
$ make VF=1 TESTS='test_rsa test_dsa' test
make test TESTS='test_rsa test_dsa' VF=1
make test TESTS="test_cmp_*" VFO=1
You can find the list of available tests like this:
$ make list-tests # Unix
$ mms list-tests ! OpenVMS
$ nmake list-tests # Windows
make list-tests # Unix
mms list-tests ! OpenVMS
nmake list-tests # Windows
Have a look at the manual for the perl module Test::Harness to
see what other HARNESS_* variables there are.
