Various tests, particularly the client program tests
under src/bin
, use the Perl TAP tools and are run
using the Perl testing program prove
. You can pass
command-line options to prove
by setting
the make
variable PROVE_FLAGS
, for example:
make -C src/bin check PROVE_FLAGS='--timer'
See the manual page of prove
for more information.
The TAP tests require the Perl module IPC::Run
.
This module is available from CPAN or an operating system package.
