NAME

       runtest - the DejaGnu test driver program

SYNOPSIS

       runtest [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

       DejaGnu	is  a framework for running test suites on GNU tools. It is written in expect, which uses Tcl (Tool command language).	runtest is
       the test driver program; use it to control what tests to run, and variations on how to run them.

       You can find a comprehensive description of DejaGnu and runtest in The DejaGnu Testing Framework or its Info version, dejagnu.info.

OPTIONS

       --all  Print all test output to screen. By default, only unexpected results are displayed.

       --baud rate
	      Set the baud rate for a serial line connection. Some serial interface programs (like tip) don't use this value  but  instead  use  a
	      separate initialization file.

       --connect type
	      The type of connection to use.  The choices are rlogin, telnet, rsh, kermit, tip and mondfe.

       --debug
	      Turn  on expect internal debugging output. All output is logged to a file called dbg.out.  The output of the --strace also goes into
	      this file.

       --help Prints out a help screen and then exits.

       --host type
	      The configuration string for the host.

       --ignore test1.exp test2.exp ...
	      Do not run the specified tests.

       --mail 'name1 name2 ...'
	      Electronic mail addresses to receive test results.

       --name hostname
	      The network hostname of the target board.

       --objdir path
	      path is a directory containing compiled test code.

       --outdir directory
	      The name of a directory for test log output.

       --reboot
	      Reboot the target board when runtest initializes (if supported).

       --srcdir path
	      path is a directory containing test directories.

       --strace N
	      Turns on expect internal tracing to N levels deep.

       --target type
	      The configuration string for the target.

       --tool toolname
	      Specify the tool to be tested.  toolname controls the test suite applied, and the associated initialization module.

       --verbose, -v
	      Turns on more debugging output from test cases and DejaGnu utility code.	Use more than once to increase output further.

       --version, -V
	      Prints out the versions of DejaGnu, expect and Tcl.

       -D[number]
	      Activate the Tcl debugger.number can be either 1 or 0. If it is 1, then the expect shell will break when it starts to run. All  ^C's
	      drop DejaGnu back to the debugger prompt. A 0 starts DejaGnu like normal, but a ^C drops to the debugger prompt.

       Any file name on the command line is assumed to be a subset
       of the test names to run.  Usually these are the names of the expect test driver, ie... special.exp.

       Makefile  style	variables  are used to specify tool names and their flags; these and other configuration dependent values are saved in the
       file site.exp, created during configuration.

EXIT CODES

       runtest sets the exit code to 1 if any of the tests failed, or sets it to 0 if all the tests passed.
