Subject: [ANNOUNCE] The Linux Test Project has been Released for MARCH 2008

Dear All,

The Linux Test Project test suite has been released for the month of
MARCH 2008. The latest version of the test-suite contains 3000+ tests
for the Linux OS and can be found at
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/.
Latest happenings in LTP can also be found at:
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wiki/,
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wikiArchives.php, and,
IRC: irc.freenode.org #ltp.


Release Highlights:

* Addition of TI-RPC test cases,
* Continuing work for Concurrency-safe & NFS fixes,
* Major Enhancements/Cleanups to LTP-RT Tree,
* Major Fixes to Test Cases behavior on CELL for NFS issues,


Note(s) from the Maintainer:

Continuing with our endeavor to bring you new test cases for reaching
many unexplored areas of Kernel, we will continue to add new test cases
in future, notably amongst them being the SHAREDSUBTREE, RELAYFS,
LTP-POUNDER Enhancements for netdump, diskdump & lkcdm test scripts, as,
well as, kdump on Xen hypervisor and guests, more tests for utilities,
like makedumpfile, mkdumprd, kexec etc. We will also continue to work
with kerlabs.com to make all LTP Test Cases concurrency safe by this
year end.
I would also request test engineers across Linux Distros to kindly
consider integrating the enhancements/fixes they might have done to
their local LTP suit to the Global LTP Project.


Our web site also contains other information such as:
- A Linux test tools matrix
- Technical papers
- How To's on Linux testing
- Code coverage analysis tool.


We would encourage the community to post results to
[email protected],
