Also factor out testing that's common across Xcode and Ninja.* generators.
- Ninja expected output files were extended to accept directories named
after the configuration in paths.
- Tests that previously ran with Ninja were allowed to run with Ninja
Multi-Config.
- Swift/RunCMakeTest.cmake:
- Checks for conditions where little or no testing could be done
were moved to the top of the file, with return()s to limit nesting
of the remainder of the code ("Early bailouts").
- CMP0157 tests, which were being performed for all generators, were
factored out into a block at the top of the file.
- RunCMake_TEST_OPTIONS is set initially for all multi-config
generators and list(APPEND)'ed-to in each block() where it was previously
set() and unset().
This directory contains tests that run CMake to configure a project
but do not actually build anything. To add a test:
1. Add a subdirectory named for the test, say ``<Test>/``.
2. In ``./CMakeLists.txt`` call ``add_RunCMake_test`` and pass the
test directory name ``<Test>``.
3. Create script ``<Test>/RunCMakeTest.cmake`` in the directory containing::
include(RunCMake)
run_cmake(SubTest1)
...
run_cmake(SubTestN)
where ``SubTest1`` through ``SubTestN`` are sub-test names each
corresponding to an independent CMake run and project configuration.
One may also add calls of the form::
run_cmake_command(SubTestI ${CMAKE_COMMAND} ...)
to fully customize the test case command-line.
Alternatively, if the test is to cover running ``ctest -S`` then use::
include(RunCTest)
run_ctest(SubTest1)
...
run_ctest(SubTestN)
and create ``test.cmake.in``, ``CTestConfig.cmake.in``, and
``CMakeLists.txt.in`` files to be configured for each case.
Alternatively, if the test is to cover running ``cpack -G`` then use::
include(RunCPack)
run_cpack(Sample1)
...
run_cpack(SampleN)
where ``Sample1`` through ``SampleN`` are sample project directories
in the ``RunCPack/`` directory adjacent to this file.
4. Create file ``<Test>/CMakeLists.txt`` in the directory containing::
cmake_minimum_required(...)
project(${RunCMake_TEST} NONE) # or languages needed
include(${RunCMake_TEST}.cmake)
where ``${RunCMake_TEST}`` is literal. A value for ``RunCMake_TEST``
will be passed to CMake by the ``run_cmake`` macro when running each
sub-test.
5. Create a ``<Test>/<SubTest>.cmake`` file for each sub-test named
above containing the actual test code. Optionally create files
containing expected test results:
``<SubTest>-result.txt``
Regex matching expected process result, if not ``0``
``<SubTest>-stdout.txt``
Regex matching expected stdout content
``<SubTest>-stderr.txt``
Regex matching expected stderr content, if not ``^$``
``<SubTest>-check.cmake``
Custom result check.
Note that when a specific platform expects differing stdout or stderr that
can be done by adding a platform specific output file. These follow the
naming convention of:
``<SubTest>-stdout-<platform_lower_case>.txt``
``<SubTest>-stderr-<platform_lower_case>.txt``
Note that trailing newlines will be stripped from actual and expected
test output before matching against the stdout and stderr expressions.
The code in ``<SubTest>-check.cmake`` may use variables
``RunCMake_TEST_SOURCE_DIR``
Top of test source tree
``RunCMake_TEST_BINARY_DIR``
Top of test binary tree
and an failure must store a message in ``RunCMake_TEST_FAILED``.
The check script may optionally set ``RunCMake_TEST_FAILURE_MESSAGE``
with additional text to be included in the message if the test fails.
To speed up local testing, you can choose to run only a subset of
``run_cmake()`` tests in a ``RunCMakeTest.cmake`` script by using the
``RunCMake_TEST_FILTER`` environment variable. If this variable is set,
it is treated as a regular expression, and any tests whose names don't
match the regular expression are not run. For example::
$ RunCMake_TEST_FILTER="^example" ctest -R '^RunCMake\.Example$'
This will only run subtests in ``RunCMake.Example`` that start with
``example``.
To speed up the process of creating a new ``RunCMake`` test, you can run a
script that will automatically perform steps 1 through 4 for you::
cmake -DRunCMake_TEST_SUITE=<test suite name> -P Tests/RunCMake/AddRunCMakeTestSuite.cmake
Be sure to run this from the top-level CMake source directory.
