How to add recipes
==================

For any test that you want to perform, you write a script located in
test/recipes/, named {nn}-test_{name}.t, where {nn} is a two digit number and
{name} is a unique name of your choice.

Please note that if a test involves a new testing executable, you will need to
do some additions in test/Makefile. More on this later.


Naming conventions
=================

A test executable is named test/{name}test.c

A test recipe is named test/recipes/{nn}-test_{name}.t, where {nn} is a two
digit number and {name} is a unique name of your choice.

The number {nn} is (somewhat loosely) grouped as follows:

00-04 sanity, internal and essential API tests
05-09 individual symmetric cipher algorithms
10-14 math (bignum)
15-19 individual asymmetric cipher algorithms
20-24 openssl commands (some otherwise not tested)
25-29 certificate forms, generation and verification
30-35 engine and evp
60-79 APIs
70 PACKET layer
80-89 "larger" protocols (CA, CMS, OCSP, SSL, TSA)
90-98 misc
99 most time consuming tests [such as test_fuzz]


A recipe that just runs a test executable
=========================================

A script that just runs a program looks like this:

#! /usr/bin/perl

use OpenSSL::Test::Simple;

simple_test("test_{name}", "{name}test", "{name}");

{name} is the unique name you have chosen for your test.

The second argument to `simple_test' is the test executable, and `simple_test'
expects it to be located in test/

For documentation on OpenSSL::Test::Simple, do
`perldoc util/perl/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm'.


A recipe that runs a more complex test
======================================

For more complex tests, you will need to read up on Test::More and
OpenSSL::Test. Test::More is normally preinstalled, do `man Test::More' for
documentation. For OpenSSL::Test, do `perldoc util/perl/OpenSSL/Test.pm'.

A script to start from could be this:

#! /usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use OpenSSL::Test;

setup("test_{name}");

plan tests => 2; # The number of tests being performed

ok(test1, "test1");
ok(test2, "test1");

sub test1
{
# test feature 1
}

sub test2
{
# test feature 2
}


Changes to test/build.info
==========================

Whenever a new test involves a new test executable you need to do the
following (at all times, replace {NAME} and {name} with the name of your
test):

* add {name} to the list of programs under PROGRAMS_NO_INST

* create a three line description of how to build the test, you will have
to modify the include paths and source files if you don't want to use the
basic test framework:

SOURCE[{name}]={name}.c
INCLUDE[{name}]=.. ../include
DEPEND[{name}]=../libcrypto libtestutil.a

Generic form of C test executables
==================================

#include "testutil.h"

static int my_test(void)
{
int testresult = 0; /* Assume the test will fail */
int observed;

observed = function(); /* Call the code under test */
if (!TEST_int_eq(observed, 2)) /* Check the result is correct */
goto end; /* Exit on failure - optional */

testresult = 1; /* Mark the test case a success */
end:
cleanup(); /* Any cleanup you require */
return testresult;
}

int setup_tests(void)
{
ADD_TEST(my_test); /* Add each test separately */
return 1; /* Indicate success */
}

You should use the TEST_xxx macros provided by testutil.h to test all failure
conditions. These macros produce an error message in a standard format if the
condition is not met (and nothing if the condition is met). Additional
information can be presented with the TEST_info macro that takes a printf
format string and arguments. TEST_error is useful for complicated conditions,
it also takes a printf format string and argument. In all cases the TEST_xxx
macros are guaranteed to evaluate their arguments exactly once. This means
that expressions with side effects are allowed as parameters. Thus,

if (!TEST_ptr(ptr = OPENSSL_malloc(..)))

works fine and can be used in place of:

ptr = OPENSSL_malloc(..);
if (!TEST_ptr(ptr))

The former produces a more meaningful message on failure than the latter.
