run, check and verify a test-case.

README_TESTS

The scripts used in the source-directory are used to verify the libmqmsgque library including the all other programming-language components. Testing is done using the tcltest feature of the tcl distribution, the script-execution-tool "Nhi1Exec" and the "make check" feature of automake.

make usage

command	definition
help	this message
help2	test-tool help message
log	show the test-testults (only error)
timer	show summary sorted after "time spend on"
sort	show summary sorted after "test performed"

make check

used to execute all tests in parallel to get fast test-results. parallel-testing is a feature auf the automake build tool. Nhi1Make execute NUMCPU-2 parallel test-cases by default.

using the test feature of the build environment with 4 parallel tasks
```
Nhi1Make -j4 check 
or
Nhi1Exec --check
```

only test the "c" language code

Nhi1Make check TEST_LOG_FLAGS="--lang-c"
or
Nhi1Exec --check --lang-c

Nhi1Exec

used to test a singel test-case to verify a specific problem. All tests have to be performed in the:

  NHI1-X.X/theLink/tests

directory of the NHI1 installation.
Nhi1Exec expect a executable or a testcase as first argument.
The executable have to use the language postfix to select the language to test.

  example: server.{c,cc,cs,go,jv,tcl,pl,rb,php,py}

examples

invoke an individual test script for language python and perl
```
Nhi1Exec int.test --lng-py-pl
```

invoke parallel thread testing with all send testcases from maketests subdirectory
```
Nhi1Exec --check=maketests/send* --start-thread
```

start tcl server using tcp and listing on port 7777 and spawn for every new connection a new server
```
Nhi1Exec server.tcl --tcp --port 7777 --spawn
```

(OLD) invoke all tests for language go using threads and only binary data
```
Nhi1Exec all.tcl --lng-go --start-threads --only-binary
```
