Release 0.2.0 of the Open POSIX Test Suite is now available at
http://posixtest.sourceforge.net. This second release contains POSIX
conformance tests for 50-80% of the POSIX functions of threads, signals, and
semaphores. It also contains the full timers suite (tags TMR and CS)
released in 0.1.0 with bug fixes.
The release notes that appear on download describe how to compile and run
these tests.
The README page and the Open POSIX Test Suite website (above) give more
information on the project goals and progress as well as information on how
to contribute or contact us if you are interested.
Many thanks to Jim Houston and other members of the POSIX testing community
for their bug fixes, patches, and suggestions on how to improve the 0.1.0
suite.
The Open POSIX Test Suite is an open source test suite with the goal of
creating conformance test suites, as well as potentially functional and
stress test suites, to the functions described in the IEEE Std 1003.1-2001
System Interfaces specification. Initial work is focusing on timers,
threads, semaphores, signals, and message queues.
Feel free to contact [email protected] if you would
like further information.
