[pypy-dev] pypy platform specific tests

[Vaibhav Sood]

Thanks Armin! I was looking at the stacklet code under "pypy/rpython/translator/c/src/stacklet" as an example , I did find a tests.c file in the same folder but couldn’t find it being invoked by buildbot or any .py file in the test suite (in the Makefile there is a 'run-all-tests' target but doing a 'make run-all-tests' gives an error) so was wondering how this code gets tested?

Thanks again!

Regards,
Vaibhav

No, our tests are almost always .py files.  If you have some more precise query, like "where is code xyz tested?", I can answer more precisely.

We run some tests with the pypy binaries, like CPython's own tests and more.  Obviously it requires first getting a pypy in binary form.
Then see e.g. http://buildbot.pypy.org/builders/pypy-c-jit-linux-x86-64/builds/2722
.  The last four sections (numbers 10 to 13) are running some tests; for example section number 11 is the CPython tests.  You can click on "stdio" to see the exact command used to run the tests (in the first line).


A bientôt,

Armin.
