<dt><b>DESCRIPTION</b></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
<b>jsDriver.pl</b> is normally used to run a series of tests against
|
|
one of the JavaScript shells. These tests are expected to be laid out
|
|
in a directory structure exactly three levels deep. The first level
|
|
is considered the <b>root</b> of the tests, subdirectories under the
|
|
<b>root</b> represent <b>Test Suites</b> and generally mark broad
|
|
categories such as <i>ECMA Level 1</i> or <i>Live Connect 3</i>. Under the
|
|
<b>Test Suites</b> are the <b>Test Categories</b>, which divide the
|
|
<b>Test Suite</b> into smaller categories, such as <i>Execution Contexts</i>
|
|
or <i>Lexical Rules</i>. Testcases are located under the
|
|
<B>Test Categories</b> as normal JavaScript (*.js) files.
|
|
<p>
|
|
If a file named <b>shell.js</b> exists in either the
|
|
<b>Test Suite</b> or the <b>Test Category</b> directory, it is
|
|
loaded into the shell before the testcase. If <b>shell.js</b>
|
|
exists in both directories, the version in the <b>Test Suite</b>
|
|
directory is loaded <i>first</i>, giving the version associated with
|
|
the <b>Test Category</b> the ability to override funtions previously
|
|
declared. You can use this to
|
|
create functions and variables common to an entire suite or category.
|
|
<p>
|
|
Testcases can report failures back to <b>jsDriver.pl</b> in one of
|
|
two ways. The most common is to write a line of text containing
|
|
the word <code>FAILED!</code> to <b>STDOUT</b> or <b>STDERR</b>.
|
|
When the engine encounters a matching line, the test is marked as
|
|
failed, and any line containing <code>FAILED!</code> is displayed in
|
|
the failure report. The second way a test case can report failure is
|
|
to return an unexpected exit code. By default, <b>jsDriver.pl</b>
|
|
expects all test cases to return exit code 0, although a test
|
|
can output a line containing <code>EXPECT EXIT <i>n</i></code> where
|
|
<i>n</i> is the exit code the driver should expect to see. Testcases
|
|
can return a nonzero exit code by calling the shell function
|
|
<code>quit(<i>n</i>)</code> where <code><i>n</i></code> is the
|
|
code to exit with. The various JavaScript shells report
|
|
non-zero exit codes under the following conditions:

Bugzilla URL. When a testcase writes a line in the format
|
|
<code>BUGNUMBER <i>n</i></code> to <b>STDOUT</b> or <b>STDERR</b>,
|
|
<b>jsDriver.pl</b> interprets <code><i>n</i></code> as a bugnumber
|
|
in the <a href="http://bugzilla.mozilla.org">BugZilla</a> bug
|
|
tracking system. In the event that a testcase which has specified
|
|
a bugnumber fails, a hyperlink to the BugZilla database
|
|
will be included in the output by prefixing the bugnumber with the
|
|
URL specified here. By default, URL is assumed to be
|
|
"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=".

Classpath to pass the the Java Virtual Machine. When running tests

against the <b>Rhino</b> engine, PATH will be passed in as the value

|
to an argument named "-classpath". If your particular JVM
|
|
does not support this option, it is recommended you specify your

class path via an environment setting. Refer to your JVM

documentation for more details about CLASSPATH.

Generate html output to the HTML file named by FILE. By default,

a filename will be generated using a combination of the engine type
|

and a date/time stamp, in the format:

<code>results-<i><engine-type></i>-<i><date-stamp></i>.html</code>

|

Set the location of the Java Virtual Machine to use when running

|
against multiple JVMs on the same system.

<dt><b>-k, --confail</b></dt>
|

<dd>
|
|
Log failures to the console. This will show any failures, as they
|
|
occur, on <b>STDERR</b> in addition to creating the HTML results
|
|
file. This can be useful for times when it may be
|
|
counter-productive to load an HTML version of the results each time
|
|
a test is re-run.
|
|
<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<dt><b>-l FILE ..., --list=FILE ...</b></dt>
|

<dd>
|

Specify a list of tests to execute. FILE can be a plain text file
|
|
containing a list of testcases to execute, a subdirectory
|
|
in which to
|
|
<a href="http://www.instantweb.com/~foldoc/foldoc.cgi?query=grovel">grovel</a>
|
|
for tests, or a single testcase to execute. Any number of FILE
|
|
specifiers may follow this option. The driver uses the fact that a
|
|
valid testcase should be a file ending in .js to make the distinction
|
|
between a file containg a list of tests and an actual testcase.
|
|
<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<dt><b>-L FILE ..., --neglist=FILE ...</b></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
Specify a list of tests to skip. FILE has the same meaning as in
|
|
the <b>-l</b> option. This option is evaluated after
|
|
<b>all</b> <b>-l</b> and <b>--list</b> options, allowing a user
|
|
to subtract a single testcase, a directory of testcases, or a
|
|
collection of unrelated testcases from the exection list.
|
|
<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<dt><b>-p PATH, --testpath=PATH</b></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
Directory holding the "Test Suite" subdirectories. By
|
|
default this is ./
|

<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<dt><b>-s PATH, --shellpath=PATH</b></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
Directory holding the JavaScript shell. This can be used to override
|
|
the automatic shell location <b>jsDriver.pl</b> performs based on
|
|
you OS and engine type. For Non <b>Rhino</b> engines, this
|
|
includes the name of the executable as well as the path. In
|
|
<b>Rhino</b>, this path will be appended to your
|
|
<a href="#classpath">CLASSPATH</a>. For the
|
|
<b>SpiderMonkey</b> shells, this value defaults to
|
|
../src/<Platform-and-buildtype-specific-directory>/[js|jsshell],
|
|
for the
|
|
<b>LiveConnect</b> shells,
|
|
../src/liveconnect/src/<Platform-and-buildtype-specific-directory>/lschell
|
|
and for the <b>xpcshell</b> the default is the value of your
|
|
<code>MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME</code> environment variable. There is no
|
|
default (as it is usually not needed) for the <b>Rhino</b> shell.
|
|
<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<dt><b>-t, --trace</b></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
Trace execution of <b>jsDriver.pl</b>. This option is primarily
|
|
used for debugging of the script itself, but if you are interested in
|
|
seeing the actual command being run, or generally like gobs of
|
|
useless information, you may find it entertaining.

<dt><b>-u URL, --lxrurl=URL</b></dt>

Failures listed in the HTML results will be hyperlinked to the

|
|
<b>jsDriver.pl</b> requires the
|
|
<a href="http://search.cpan.org/search?module=Getopt::Mixed">Getopt::Mixed</a>
|
|
perl package, available from <a href="http://www.cpan.org">cpan.org</a>.

<br>
|
|
<dt><b>EXAMPLES</b></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
<code>perl jsDriver.pl -e smdebug -L lc*</code><br>
|
|
Executes all tests EXCEPT the liveconnect tests against the
|
|
SpiderMonkey debug shell, writing the results
|
|
to the default result file. (NOTE: Unix shells take care of wildcard
|
|
expansion, turning <code>lc*</code> into <code>lc2 lc3</code>. Under
|
|
a DOS shell, you must explicitly list the directories.)
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>perl jsDriver.pl -e rhino -L rhino-n.tests</code><br>
|
|
Executes all tests EXCEPT those listed in the
|
|
<code>rhino-n.tests</code> file.
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>perl -I/home/rginda/perl/lib/ jsDriver.pl -e lcopt -l lc2
|
|
lc3 -f lcresults.html -k</code><br>
|
|
Executes ONLY the tests under the <code>lc2</code> and <code>lc3</code>
|
|
directories against the LiveConnect shell. Results will be written to
|
|
the file <code>lcresults.html</code> <b>AND</b> the console. The
|
|
<code>-I</code> option tells perl to look for modules in the
|
|
<code>/home/rginda/perl/lib</code> direcotry (in addition to the
|
|
usual places), useful if you do not have root access to install new
|
|
modules on the system.
