Hi all,
I'm trying to understand is there any uniform way to write tests? For example, lib/ folder has a bunch of tests, but all of them use various technics:
- pr_warn/pr_err (i.e. printk) or WARN for assertions - just tens of functions that check something, or unified macros - no naming convention for test cases
So, I'm wondering, whether there is an example or guidelines that is worth to follow.
It all depends on what you want to test. There is no "general" way to do this as all subsystems / parts of the kernel are different. thanks, greg k-h
