# HG changeset patch # User Matthieu Laneuville # Date 1501648065 -32400 # Node ID a18eef03d879b179c69744ff3568615402542938 # Parent a7e49a5b3e6f38338660c0d98f9c593f70064e95 run-tests: $TESTDIR can be something else than $PWD $TESTDIR is expected to be the directory were the test lives, and is often used to reference helper functions. However, it is now set to $PWD at test invocation time, so if `run-tests.py` is called from another folder, the test will fail. The solution is to force $TESTDIR to be the base directory of the test itself, irrespective of where the runner is called from. diff -r a7e49a5b3e6f -r a18eef03d879 tests/run-tests.py --- a/tests/run-tests.py Wed Nov 01 17:08:33 2017 +0100 +++ b/tests/run-tests.py Wed Aug 02 13:27:45 2017 +0900 @@ -2353,6 +2353,12 @@ self._testdir = osenvironb[b'TESTDIR'] = getattr( os, 'getcwdb', os.getcwd)() + # assume all tests in same folder for now + if testdescs: + pathname = os.path.dirname(testdescs[0]['path']) + if pathname and not osenvironb[b'TESTDIR'].endswith('/'): + osenvironb[b'TESTDIR'] += '/' + osenvironb[b'TESTDIR'] += pathname if self.options.outputdir: self._outputdir = canonpath(_bytespath(self.options.outputdir)) else: diff -r a7e49a5b3e6f -r a18eef03d879 tests/test-run-tests.t --- a/tests/test-run-tests.t Wed Nov 01 17:08:33 2017 +0100 +++ b/tests/test-run-tests.t Wed Aug 02 13:27:45 2017 +0900 @@ -1261,6 +1261,22 @@ . # Ran 1 tests, 0 skipped, 0 failed. +support for running run-tests.py from another directory + $ mkdir tmp && cd tmp + $ cat > useful-file.sh << EOF + > important command + > EOF + + $ cat > test-folder.t << EOF + > $ cat \$TESTDIR/useful-file.sh + > important command + > EOF + + $ cd .. + $ $PYTHON $TESTDIR/run-tests.py tmp/test-folder.t + . + # Ran 1 tests, 0 skipped, 0 failed. + support for bisecting failed tests automatically $ hg init bisect $ cd bisect
