Subject: [PATCH 7/7] tests: make test_expect_code quieter on success
Date: Sat, 21 May 2011 14:40:32 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110521194032.GH10530@elie> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110521185314.GA10530@elie>

A command exiting with the expected status is not particularly
notable.

While the indication of progress might be useful when tracking down
where in a test a failure has happened, the same applies to most other
test helpers, which are quiet about success, so this single helper's
output stands out in an unpleasant way.  An alternative method for
showing progress information might to invent a --progress option that
runs tests with "set -x", or until that is available, to run tests
using commands like

	prove -v -j2 --shuffle --exec='sh -x' t2202-add-addremove.sh

That's the end of the series.  This last one should probably have
been called 7/6 or sent separately as an RFC, since it's more a
matter of taste.  It was just something I ran into while trying out
the tests.

Hopefully the series wasn't too boring.  Thanks for reading.
