-===========================================================================
- OTP Test Server
-===========================================================================
-
-To compile the 'test_server' application you need to build and install
-a Erlang/OTP system from source. Get your open source Erlang/OTP from
-http://www.erlang.org/. The resulting "erlc" command must be in the
-search path for commands.
-
-The Erlang test_server application and the example tests are to be
-inserted into an existing source tree for Erlang/OTP.
-
-You don't run the Test Server or the tests from the source tree.
-Instead a test installation area $TESTROOT is used with the resulting
-directory structure
-
- $TESTROOT/test_server
- $TESTROOT/<app1>_test
- $TESTROOT/<app2>_test
- .
- .
-
-For more details see the test_server documentation can be found in the
-"$ERL_TOP/lib/test_server/doc/html" directory.
-
-
-Unpacking the sources
----------------------
-
-Enter your Erlang/OTP source tree and unpack the OTP Test Server and
-optionally the test examples
-
- % cd otp_src_RXX
- % gunzip -c test_server-<VSN>.tar.gz | tar xf -
- % gunzip -c emulator-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.gz | tar xf -
- % gunzip -c stdlib-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.gz | tar xf -
-
-
-How to build and install the OTP Test Server
---------------------------------------------
-
-Set the ERL_TOP variable to the top directory of the source tree
-
- % cd otp_src_RXX
-
- % setenv ERL_TOP `pwd`
- or
- % export ERL_TOP=`pwd`
-
-If not done before you need to run the configure script
-
- % ./configure
-
-Then build and install from the the base directory of the test_server
-application
-
- % cd lib/test_server
- % gmake release_tests TESTROOT=<some dir>
-
-
-How to build and install the example test suites
-------------------------------------------------
-
-If you want to build and install the example test suites
-you build and install from the the test directories
-
- % cd $ERL_TOP/lib/stdlib/test
- % gmake release_tests TESTROOT=<some dir>
-
- % cd $ERL_TOP/erts/emulator/test
- % gmake release_tests TESTROOT=<some dir>
-
-
-How to run OTP test suites
---------------------------
-
-First cd into $TESTROOT/test_server
-
- % cd $TESTROOT/test_server
-
-Install the OTP Test Server framework
-
- % erl
- 1> ts:install().
-
-Check which tests are available
-
- 2> ts:tests().
- [...]
-
-Run the collections of test suites one at the time
-
- 3> ts:run(emulator). (starts a xterm with an Erlang shell)
- 4> ts:run(stdlib). (starts a xterm with an Erlang shell)
-
-or all at once
-
- 5> ts:run(). (the node running the tests will be in the background)
-
-Note that it is normal to see lots of error messages in the Erlang
-shell. The tests will stress the system with lots of invalid input to
-find problems in the error handling.
-
-Also note that a failing test case does not always indicate a bug in
-Erlang/OTP. Differences in the network setup, machine configuration
-etc may cause a test case to fail or time out.
-
-The result of the tests are recorded in the file named "index.html" in
-the "$TESTROOT/test_server" directory. You can follow the progress of
-tests suites not yet completed from "last_test.html".
-
-For more details see the test_server documentation can be found in the
-"$ERL_TOP/lib/test_server/doc/html" directory.
