The Linux Test Project test suite LTP-20020607.tgz has been released.
Visit our website ( http://ltp.sourceforge.net )to download the latest
version of the test suite, and, for information on test results on pre
release, release candidate and stable releases of the kernel. There is
also a list of test cases that are expected to fail, please find the list
at http://ltp.sourceforge.net/expected-errors.php
The highlights of this release are:
- White paper titled "Analysis of Linux Test Projects Kernel Code
Coverage"
This analysis paper aims at identifying areas in the kernel that are
currently tested by LTP and also identify areas that require attention.
- LTP's Kernel code coverage web site
http://ltp.sf.net/coverage/index.html.
Provides a testcase for each kernel source file mapping.
- LTP is available in i386 binary RPM format for download. Also, the LTP
source RPM and spec file are available for download to allow binary RPM
builds.
- Linux Test Tools Table. A comprehensive list of tools and testsuites
available to test Linux.
- MIPS, s390 and 64-bit x86 updates.
We encourage the community to post results, patches or new tests on
our mailing list and use the CVS bug tracking facility to report problems
that you might encounter with the test suite. More details available at
