[xemacs-hg @ 2001-05-25 11:26:50 by ben] device-msw.c, eldap.c, emodules.c, hpplay.c, process-unix.c, sound.h, tooltalk.c, win32.c: Revert Martin's attempted compile-warnings fix. It does fix the warnings, but not the right way. We are trying to eliminate the raw use of `char' and `unsigned char' absolutely everywhere. There is never an occasion to reintroduce these. buffer.h: Instead, we fix these macros so they don't care about the type of their lvalues. We already do this for the non-C-string equivalents of these, and it's correct because it should be OK to pass in an SBufbyte *, for example. In any case, we do not need any type-correctness checking here -- errors will be caught for sure as soon as we remove the -Wno-sign-compare switch. mule-charset.c: Use invalid_argument, not generic signal_error (Qerror, ). alloc.c, chartab.c, console-gtk.c, console-msw.c, console-stream.c, console-stream.h, console-tty.c, console-tty.h, console-x.c, console.c, console.h, device-x.c, device.c, elhash.c, eval.c, faces.c, faces.h, fns.c, glyphs.c, glyphs.h, gui.c, gui.h, lisp.h, lread.c, nt.c, objects-gtk.c, objects-gtk.h, objects-msw.c, objects-tty.c, objects-x.c, objects.c, process-unix.c, rangetab.c, search.c, specifier.c, toolbar.c, window.c, window.h: Rename Error_behavior to Error_Behavior, to be consistent with general naming practices (Lisp_Object, Char_Binary, etc.).

This directory contains XEmacs' automated test suite.  The usual way
of running all the tests is running `make check' from the top-level
source directory.

The test suite is unfinished and it's still lacking some essential
features.  It is nevertheless recommended that you run the tests to
confirm that XEmacs behaves correctly.

If you want to run a specific test case, you can do it from the
command-line like this:

$ xemacs -batch -l test-harness.elc -f batch-test-emacs TEST-FILE

If something goes wrong, you can run the test suite interactively by
loading `test-harness.el' into a running XEmacs and typing
`M-x test-emacs-test-file RET <filename> RET'.  You will see a log of
passed and failed tests, which should allow you to investigate the
source of the error and ultimately fix the bug.

Adding a new test file is trivial: just create a new file here and it
will be run.  There is no need to byte-compile any of the files in
this directory -- the test-harness will take care of any necessary
byte-compilation.

Look at the existing test cases for the examples of coding test cases.
It all boils down to your imagination and judicious use of the macros
`Assert', `Check-Error', `Check-Error-Message', and `Check-Message'.
