Oops, didn't mean to press Save with no description. What I meant to say is: Many of dbus' tests use GLib's GTest, which can be asked to output its results in TAP format, a structured format originating in Perl 1. For the others, we can get at least trivial TAP output quite easily.
Created attachment 114770 [details] [review] [1/9] tests: avoid noise on stdout when not --verbose This makes life easier for frameworks like LAVA that screen-scrape test results. g_test_message() is not displayed by default, but each test can be run with either --tap or --verbose to get these messages displayed.
Created attachment 114771 [details] [review] [2/9] tests: provide g_test_skip() emulation for older GLib We don't hard-depend on a new enough GLib to have g_test_skip(); if our GLib is older, fake it using g_test_message() and degrade to reporting it as a pass rather than a skip.

Created attachment 114773 [details] [review] [4/9] installed-tests: declare that the output is in TAP format For the ones written using GLib, the output is in TAP format if we say --tap. For the one not written using GLib, the output is in TAP and the command-line is ignored.
Created attachment 114774 [details] [review] [5/9] installed-tests: don't set DBUS_TEST_HOME which is misleading It doesn't do anything - the variable I was thinking of is called DBUS_TEST_HOMEDIR. Also, if I had spelled it correctly, the tests would have failed, because libdbus (quite reasonably) won't create a nonexistent $HOME to write out cookie_sha1 files in ~/.dbus_keyrings.
Created attachment 114775 [details] [review] [6/9] Depend on Automake 1.13 so we can use the correct AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT Since Automake 1.13 (released December 2012) the correct way for a maintainer to specify environment variables has been AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT, with TESTS_ENVIRONMENT reserved for the user. That doesn't work in older Automake, so drop support for such old versions.

This could be achieved easily by using an array of char**s for the test vectors, rather than a list of calls to test_command_line*() and varargs. If you can be bothered to get that working neatly, go for it; otherwise, I wouldn't worry about moving the test plan.

I was about to suggest that these *_test() sh functions be factored out into a little sh library which could be sourced from the two files. Then I realised I was thinking about an 'sh library' and had to be taken out back and shot. Would it be outrageous to suggest scrapping these two sh files and rewriting them in Python? I guess that would mean a hard dependency on Python which we are already explicitly avoiding in py_test(). So this is a roundabout way of saying: I continue to dislike sh, but there doesn't seem to be much we can do about it.

Not actually necessary. A TAP test that doesn't print a plan is considered to have failed overall; putting the plan at the end avoids having to count tests and hard-code how many there are going to be. % cat > t ok 1 ok 2 ok 3 % prove -e cat t t ..

It should be cat'd. This is the only failure case where we have output in a temporary file: everywhere else, we don't need to grep the output, so we just send it to stdout. > Need to `rm output.tmp` in the success case.

The point at which your shell script, including its "library code", doesn't all fit on-screen is the point at which you should stop writing shell script. If we're going to do anything structural to this stuff, the right things would be: * change the 7 C tests so they run their own dbus-daemon using library code, output TAP, and preferably use GTest (next best thing: run each C test individually under run-with-tmp-session-bus.sh, dbus-run-session or a modified run-test.sh, using SH_LOG_COMPILER or something) * change the 2 Python tests so they run their own dbus-daemon using library code, and output TAP (next best thing: run each Python test individually under run-with-tmp-session-bus.sh, dbus-run-session or a modified run-test.sh, using PY_LOG_COMPILER or something; one complicating factor is that one wants a session-like bus and the other wants a system-like bus) * change the dbus-send-based test to be a small shell script outputting TAP in its own right, and run it under run-with-tmp-session-bus.sh using SH_LOG_COMPILER or something But I don't want to do those right now.
